I dived the bottom of the canal, in the forces,
In a one-person diving bell, called Bathyscaphes.
Excitement? No need for me to be abstemious,
Not my usual duties, an emergency, so it was ascisimus,
A four-hour stint, easy-peasy; it turned out atrocious!
My innards rumbled… I got the shi…, well, shigellosis,
I felt sorry for those on the following watch,
The squaddie taking over from me, a lad from Norwich…
Said the smell was horrendous and hellacious!
The inside of my briefs turned brunneous,
My vomiting reflex triggered, with a blech,
It’s not as if the inside was capacious,
Tiny, in fact, I couldn’t reach down to my gaters,
My first dive, my passing was the stinkiness,
But I did the whole stint because I was conscientious,
The Norwich lad, Private Nobby Valance…
Said after his shift, that I was cretinous!
He came at me… he was tense and vexatious,
But he broke into a smile; I expected a right cross!

What a great start to the day…
was with me for the entire morning. Of course, I could hardly believe it. Deep inside my demented mind, there were sensations of an upcoming disaster, no less! My mind was right!
Following the glee of 4½hrs worth of Sod ’em all attitude, after the computer cock-up, which sent me to the deep dark, dank depths. Horrible depression.
Really bad! I felt awful and frustrated. I’m getting this tale out of the way on Wednesday, midday. Just beginning to update this blog. At long last. Yesterday, Darius was so deep-rooted for most of the day. He’s stayed with me. Although nothing has changed, my fiddling nervously with things that scare me, and an uncertainty of getting any help, ensure that DDDDDD is present, but not so severely compared to Tuesday, yet. I’ll explain and get back to a semi-chronological Inchy Today.
Here goes: I think it must have been around 13:50hrs, I was actually pleased with how things had gone in the morning… No Smug Modes, though. My history of not coping and panicking when these things happen, being guaranteed, warned me not to get blaise.
I’d just finished getting all the Templates for August done – and without too many mistakes (as far as I know). I thought I’d made none at all at this stage. But, on checking, I found eight (a guesstimate) mistakes. But I believe sorting them out and getting them in the correct order made me feel better. For it didn’t take me too long, and all seemed corrected! Still resisting going into a Smug Mode, I moved on to CorelDRAW to start importing the morning’s photos. There were a good few, the first thing photo’d several times was the amazing rainbow… I’m losing track here, sorry.
If my waffling involves an unconscious ‘Plea for Help’, then so be it, I need it. Not coping with the constant barrage every day of something going wrong. From my leaving the hot water tap/faucet running, or the fridge door open, to the cooker on. Missing appointment. Buying food with money in its current state, I don’t need. Where was I?
Ah, yes, I was uploading the photographs to CorelDraw, it seemed to be going well… 
And the screen froze.
I couldn’t close it, save my work, or access any other site or Windows. I’ll not repeat how I felt… Yes, I will… Heartbroken, frustrated, depressed, sick of the rubbish way I’m having to struggle with everyday problems and tasks. The wheelchair arrived with bolts missing, and I had to get help from the kind Red Cross volunteer man who mended it for me; his job was a safety check on the hospital bed. (Bless him)
I’d better stop here, back to the storyline.
There I was, in desperation, not knowing what I could do about it, and I decided to ask Mr Google for recommended home repair computer firms or shops. Amazingly, they came up with ‘The Computer Man’. Do you recall him on the blog from a couple of years ago? I was in a similar plight with the computer back then, and rang ‘The Computer Man’. It turns out that they are a Nationwide association of computer engineers. Seeing ‘The Computer Man’, I assumed it was that. He told me to be patient, and an engineer would be contacting me shortly, but it may be a while, as they are very busy. Fair enough. Two years and three months later, I still await the expected email from one of his engineers. Needless to say, I didn’t ring ‘The Computer Man’. I rang a computer shop up the hill on Woodborough Road, ‘Bettabuys’, after going on their website, and I thought I’d hit gold! It said all your problems will be solved by us. We will visit, take your computer, and return it in better condition. Faster, more memory. Great!
Joanne came in and asked why I looked so uptight and gloomy. I explained, and she kindly rang the ‘Bettabuys Shop’, to ask for help. “We no longer do home visits, as only one computer engineer is working here now”. I didn’t think I could feel any worse, lower than I did; I was wrong.
So, the only option was to unplug the computer and start again, unconfidently.
Joanne returned to the flat and told me that the Warden was going to try to find some help. She told Joanne to tell me not to turn off the computer.
But I didn’t hear anything from Deana. I struggled with restarting the computer. It opened with the previously frozen window. It wouldn’t let me save or do anything earlier when it went all wrong.
On my second try, it started, as normal. I opened CorelDRAW, but it informed me that the file is unavailable! G\file history\desktop-QU471Q\path\user\music\July01
Oh, great, that educates and helps me a lot. I went into the music file, but there was nothing in there?
Sinking more spiritually now. I was tempted to throw the computer out of the balcony window, but I am not so selfish that I’d risk it landing on someone.
Carer Ejaz came, and I explained the computer happenings. Ajaz told me not to get worked up; it’s not doing your health any good, you’re trembling!
I knew that. He hoovered the carpet and asked if I wanted a cup of tea, to which I replied, “No thanks, mate.” Off he went, swapping farewells as he left.
Back to the computer and CorelDRAW. Rebooted the programme and got the same message.
file is unavailable! G\file history\desktop-QU471Q\path\user\music\July01,
This time, it informed me that an auto-backup has been found. Do you want to open it?
I clicked on ‘Yes’.
It opened another file that was a few days old. Then I spent ages searching for the file. Visiting the ‘Music’ folder in the pursuit. I found a newer file than the auto-saved one, so I crossed my fingers and opened it.
Then tried to save it with a new name. Nope, not enough room. I changed nothing but still tried again. Sod-me-droppages, it went into the Music folder or file, whichever it’s called.
When I looked again at Music and clicked to open it. I got the file is available! But not on; G\file history\desktop-QU471Q\path\user\music\August 01.
I gave up. And got something to eat.
THE DAY OF MISERY
Which Started So Well, As Well
Spot on lighter coloured urine,
Legs looking better all around, and the Cartilages were not collapsing at all! Super
So much so that it was a little worrying.
Got the ablutions sorted, made a brew, and fingers-crossed. I got one on the computer,
Blimey, CorelDRAW was slow.
The rain fell, but only for a few minutes.
I was late getting into blogging, but I enjoyed the brew so much that I went to make another… Kodak Tim 2 was much used – we had a rainbow!
Not overly bright ot clear, but I got carried away.
What a great start today!
Made a different view or two.
Tried to get the widest shot I could manage.
Can’t be helped.
Then…
I tried a closer shot.
Reserved for the meal later on.,

Crinkies for the Carers & Nurses.
I think I got it wrong about a nurse calling.
Can you believe that I got something wrong?
Hehehe!
I overdid the brewing today.

My walks through the tree copse, daily,
almost empty. As yesterday, once I got up and started moving about, I could feel the flow back in the bladder, and it was painful. Within a couple of minutes of taking off the night bag, the day bag began to flood. The colour was a number six grade on the NHS score chart.
Then higher.
Nice and comfortable fit, Ejaz did. The rear end wasn’t, though; that was stinging something awful. Ejaz managed to clean and medicate the insertion area. He left some of the items on the £300 second-hand shop purchase, circa 1966. Moth-eaten, bedraggled, grotty, cringingly-beige-coloured, much dilapidated, crumb-containing from my nocturnal nibblings, bug-ridden, itch-inspiring, not working recliner. But no bother, he’s had to do the catheter twice, and was running late. 

To the kitchen to get something to eat.

Once again, back on the computer.
Three snaps of the kitchen sky view.
On Ejaz’s last call, bless him, he showed that he was listening to what I said earlier. He cleaned, dried, and applied barrier cream to my rear end. He also did a body check, and I appreciated it. 
Lucky to catch this shot!
I nearlt forgot the snap of the small, but lovely meal.

Afternoon cuppa.
I obviously took this shot in error.
The original leak (on the left) had gone down well. But, Rebecca found a new one coming, and medicated it for me as well. (on the right). She said when the sin goes like mine, all leathery, cold men more are on the way. She will call next week to check on how they are. Bless her.
A smidge eerie so early in the afternoon.
Amazed at the new cloud types.
Beautiful!
And zoomed in a bit.
Cooking Time…
I may have overrated this one.





I’m in a precious but dangerous High-Mode-Horis.
I got the disabled selection moved into the balcony. Now people can get through the door again.
Moods ended up DDDDD dominated!
No rain, no mud slide!
It went darker much earlier today. It’s not 15:00hrs yet. A sure sign that summer is coming to an end… Sob! Sulk!

Oh, ‘eck!
Darius got a bit persistent in the afternoon,
A delightful meal of no-butter-buttered cheesey bread rolls, pickled mushrooms, Polish smoked sausage, and brown/green & red a bit, tomatoes. A pot of vegan lemon dessert followed, and then I got a mini ice-cream fruit sucker from the freezer.
I didn’t intend to take two; taking two was decided by Colin Cramps visiting the fingers. Tsk!

would not have the time if we were going to the dentist.
some Polish sausages of various types. And some of their green/brown tomatoes from Poland. They were great tasting! Lovely!
We hobbled up the hill in time to get to the dentist for the appointment. 
It’s a good thing that I still have some of the £599.00 per 100ml toothache pain relief spray.
what’s it… sulphate!
We had a long job, with Ejaz trying to break down the four-wheeler, and ended up putting them in the corner opposite the door. I’ll try to find a better place for them if I can tomorrow. People can’t get in or out of the door while they are there. I’ll see if I can move them into the balcony, then I can use the four-wheeler to sit on and have a nosey. Hehe!
Tired and weary as I was after the trip out, I made a start on CorelDRAW. To use in this blog. But didn’t have the mental stamina.
So, I planned the day’s meal. I decided on corn, beetroot, green tomatoes on cheesy-topped bread rolls, battered onions, and cut up some of the really tasty Zywiecka Polish Cooked And Dried Pork Sausage.
Google, gulp, chew, chomp, suck!

Vegetable stew, or casserole?
Oddly, despite worrying about tomorrow’s dentist, bank, and computer shop to get batteries, SD card, Dizzy Dennis, and Lost-Balance-Brenda in attention, High-Mode-Horis was good to me.

I did my best!
Early to rise today, 04:10hrs.
ARGH!
Sarnies made with soft Farmhouse sliced bread.
No butter-butter, loaded with Brunswick ham. On the dish: Two reheated potatoes, and beer-battered chips done in the oven. Tasty Isle of Weight tomatoes, red & yellow, and the last of the fresh podded peas. With one Farmhouse sausage. A pot of vegan lemon dessert. I ate all of it, as well! Nice!
The mist still lingered. It’s been hanging around for the last three days and nights now.
As I turned away from the window, I found a 5-litre, large glass jar of pickling vinegar on the floor. As I

I hope he gets even more unpopular,
That’s that done.
Got the nocturnal pouch emptied. I took a sample first, so the Carer could grade it later.
I took this snap above of the misty,
He checked Lymphoreoa Leslie’s leg wound and said he would change it on Monday if it got any worse. I thought it was fine, apart from the neuropathy-driven electric shocks being more regular today. I put this down to the patch dropping off so regularly; Mizra had put tape on it to keep it in place. Ejaz changed his mind and applied a new patch, retaping it firmly in place. Seconds later, the body fluid could be seen leaking under the plaster. As expected, with the tape being tight, but it’s better than the plaster falling off. Don’t worry, the nurse is due on Monday or Tuesday. I’m dreading Wednesday’s medical day. I may have to miss blogs off. But not if I can help it.
Ejaz then creamed the hand injury, & took a photograph of it. It looks a lot worse than it really is in this snap. It’s drying up and scabbing now, which is a good sign, methinks. 
I’ll have a super choice tonight.
I did have a bit of an Accifaupas, though.
I caught the hand wound as I
