Look Out I’m Back!!

Hello people I am still here, well I think so anyhow. I am just back from a delightful weekend at my mums, where once again I have been spoilt rotten. Even the constant attention of the dog, Jemma was welcomed. It was so nice to see them all again although in saying that my brother had decided to go to Turkey with the wife and kids this week of all weeks, how inconsiderate!!! Never mind I guess I will just have to inflict myself on my mum and dad one Sunday when they come to visit.

As per usual we had the customary hour of sunshine each day followed by the inevitable rain and clouds….well what do we expect we are in Wales after all!!! You watch we will still have a hosepipe ban this year and all because we sell most of our blinking water to the brummies!!!!!!

I recon my mum should be in the Egon Ronay’s Guide for good food as it’s always gorgous and she quickly realised that I have this constant urge for all things Chinese. Ha ha ha I had to laugh when on Sunday this flier was posted through the letterbox advertising a new local Chinese take away of all things.

I did my usual trick too… I didn’t have to take much with me and as per usual I forgot one of the most important things. I bought a long 10 meter Network Cable so I could connect up to my mum’s internet connection Doh!! In the end my mum sent my dad off to get one on Friday.

Went to my mum’s local on Saturday morning, Cardiff Medical Centre, ha ha ha where I have finally gone and ordered my Electronically Adjustable Double Bed. I have wanted one for a long time now for a number of reasons, not just for comfort and stuff but as you can imagine the skin problem I have at the moment as in the tightness has meant that I can no longer lie straight and need to raise my legs up and it will help with the breathing too and do away with the need to have hundreds of pillows to make me sit up straight. I must admit the cost has been the main issue stopping me which is a bit of a bummer but then it’s the same old thing isn’t it anything to do with disability aids and stuff is a huge rip off!!! My mum bought me this great little thing that will allow me to wear socks again. I haven’t been able to bend down far enough to put socks on for some time now because of the skin thing but this thing really works. It’s called Soxon which I thought was quite original too ha ha ha. She also bought me a pick up stick thing as I always tend to drop things and find it really difficult if not impossible to bend down to pick them up.

Well I decided to end a perfect weekend I would go and top it all by falling over whilst getting my mother’s birthday card and flowers from the car on the drive. It was all my fault as instead of getting my shoes on I wore my slippers out there which were not as good. Along with this I decided to be brave and not use my sticks too…STUPID GIT!!!!!! I went flying into the bushes grazing my face and scratching my legs. The main thing is though that it really shook me up. Sp much so that I have not quite been the same since, not that I am dwelling on it but I have seen it as a bit of a reminder to take things easy and not push too hard at once.

I went for my latest dose of PUVA today too which was a bit of a disaster. The reason being that as soon as I mentioned the fall and she saw the graze on my face she decided that due to the risk of the medication maybe causing an infection that it would not be wise to do the treatment today, ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a waste of a trip, I could have stayed in bed for a couple of hours. Anyway at least I went to Tesco’s I suppose for a few things but even that was a disaster and I ended up forgetting a few things and the had to stop at the other Tesco’s nearer home.

Right that’s quite enough for one day, I’ll see you tomorrow hopefully!!!!

See Ya!!
