Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday...

Friday 23/3/07.

This morning "SH" brought "Z" round at 9.0am. on her way to Maldern with her friend "ASH". Later "?" went to the DRs. The Dr. had a letter from the Neurologist about giving "?" more tabs to take of a night.

Later after "?" came back from thr DRs. he took me to the shop to buy some wool so i could make myself a cardigan.

"Z" came in the shop with me. I bought a beige colour which has a hint of green in it. Later, later after dinner i gave "Z" a ball of odd wool so she could learn to knit. I spent some time showing her what to do, but she wanted to do it her way...lol. Anyway, i started on my cardi and i now remember why i stopped knitting in the first place, because of the pain i was receiving in my neck, shoulder and hands. I will finish this one, although i am getting these probs again...I thought knitting is supposed to be therapautic...

In the evening, "SH" phoned to say that her and "ASH had already cleaned the house with the help of ASH" mum,dad and brother and was going to start painting Saturday. Later, after our tea, "Z" and i went to watch TV in bed.

Saturday 24/3/07.

When "?" came in he took "Z" and me to the shop to buy a few bits for the weekend. Later we went to pick up "ST" for the day. "ST" and "Z"had some noisy moments tormenting each other as they normally do, but all in all they were both good.

Later after dinner, "ST" spent time writting and online, while "Z" spent time on the X-Box. "?" was watching horse racing on TV in the lounge and i went to my room where ST" was to watch TV and do some knitting. The afternoon went quickly and when "?" took "ST" home and "?" had gone out, "Z" and i had our tea and went to bed to watch TV and we played "who wants to be a millionaire" on my mobile which took us up to 11.30pm. then we settled down for the night.

Sunday 25/3/07.

Today was quite really, i cooked dinner for "Z" and myself. After dinner "Z" went online to play her games and i had a rest watching ice skating on TV in the lounge. Later, about 5.pm. "SH" and ASH" came to collect "Z" to take her home. Then "?" came in for a while then left, then i tided up a little then came online for while.

Monday 26/3/07.

This morning, i had a visitor from the council and got a few things sorted out with them, then i got a couple of light chores done and watched Midsommer Murders on TV and done some of my knitting, then "?" came in for a while then left. Then i watched TV then came on line and now i am off to watch more TV.

I hope you all had a great weekend and hope this week will be good for you too! Best wishes to one and all...

Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday...

Thursday 20/3/07.

When i went to the hole-in-the-wall machine, i received a few of the new £20.00 notes. I thought they were foreign currency...lol. I did'nt know there were new notes issued...silly me!!!

Wednesday 21/3/07.

Last night my daughter "SH" phoned me.She asked me to look after "Z" for the weekend, i said i would. "SH" and "ASH" are fetching "Z" round on their way out. They are going to Maldern where "ASH" has bought a house and they are going there for the weekend to clean it up before "ASH" moves in. "SH" and "Z" will be going there for the week over the Easter school hols. Thats when "SH" and "ASH" will be decorating the house and they will be spending time out at the beach if the whether permits and explore the area.

Thursday 22/3/07.

Last night i chatted to "ST" on MSN for a while, he said he will be here on Saturday as normal. Then i answered a couple of Emails and commented in a few journals.

Nothing has happened here today, in fact its been a quite day. "SH" phoned this evening to make sure its still ok for me to look after "Z", i said yes! "SH" said she will drop "Z" off at 9am on the way out to Maldern.

"SH" was telling me "A" cancelled his appointment for gastroscopy which was yesterday 21/3/07. as he has a nasty cold on him and is waiting for a new appointment to be sent out to him.

I miss adding my graphics to my journal, still never mind! As i said, "Z" will be here tomorrow and "ST" will be here Saturday. I don't know when i will be online myself though. I expect one or the other will be online over the weekend and i will squeeze in between, if i can that is...lol. so i hope you all have a great weekend...Best Wishes to one and all.

Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday...

Friday 16/3/07.

This morning i made an appointment for the opticians for 27/3/07. I think my prescription for my glasses might need changing and i want to get some new frames too!

I got a letter from AOL today. It seems that i owe them a small amount of money, which i genuinely had no idear that i owed them anything at all. I will pay them promptly.

Saturday 17/3/07.

This morning when "?" arrived he took me to the shop to get a few bits in for the weekend and i posted a cheque off to AOL.

Then we went to pick "ST" up for the day and brought him home. We all chatted for quite a while. Then after dinner "ST" settled down to read his book and later he went on his X-Box. "?" settled down to his usual ritual watching horse racing on TV. I'm sure that will be the death of him the way his health is. And i went on the computer to write a few Emails and get them sent off and AOL being on of them! then i browsed a couple of webpages i needed to take a look at. The afternoon went quickly then it was time to take "ST" home. we took "ST" home at 5pm. then we came home, "?" stayed for a short while and left.

Sunday 19/3/07.

This morning i opened my Mothers day cards. One from"A, L, ST and J" and one from "SH and Z" and i rang them to thank them for their lovely cards Then i got a couple of chore done while dinner was cooking. After dinner i went online to read and comment in a few Journals for a couple of hours.

I've got a problem with AOL Emails at the moment. I can't open or send any from AOL. Probably due to the money i owed them, maybe thats why i can't add graphics either aye! As i said it was a genuine mistake on my part. At the moment i am a criminal...lol. Anyway, if you want to Email me please send to this address; ASTRA1547@sky.com  untill all this is sorted out. I came back online for a short while then i decided to watch TV untill 12:30pm. then i settled down for the night.

Monday 19/3/07.

Not much has happened today really, "?" took me to buy a couple of birthday cards and i thought i would pop along to the bank as it was near by.There was a long que outside. Apparently the hole-in-the-wall machine was out of order. So, "?" and i did'nt bother waithing, we would have been there for ages so we came home. "?" left around 1pm. and  i got on with what i wanted to do. "?" came back around 5pm. for about an hour and i decided to watch TV.

Thats all for now and i hope you all have a great week ahead of you...Best wishes to you all.

Cheltenham Week and Thoughts and Feelings!

Tuesday 13/3/07.

I got a few bits and pieces done and answered a couple of letters that needed tending too. The morning went quickly. "?" came in and watched Cheltenham on TV in the afternoon, then "A" came round for about half hour and he ended up watching the racing on TV too! Me, i went to my room and watched Midsommer Murders, one of my favorite programes.

Later after "?" had gone out, i came online. When i looked out the window my next door neighbor "T" better known as TopCat online, was being taken to hospital by Ambulance, he was having chest pains, but he was later discharged. A little later, i got to chatting to Kathy ASTORIASAND and we had a couple of laughs and i really enjoyed her company.

Wednesday 14/3/97.

This morning when "?" came in he made himself busy pottering about and mowing the lawn and i helped to tidy up. "?" was very fatigued and in a lot of pain when he had finished and my head and neck felt painful and i felt so stiff although i did'nt do much myself.

In the afternoon "?" watched Cheltenham on TV, then "A" popped in with "L" for an hour before they went to pick "J" up from school. "ST" gets a bus home from his school. "L" and i had a little chat together while "?" and "A" was chatting and watching racing on TV.

Later after "?" had gone out i went online to browse and answer a couple of emails. I intended to have an early night as i had one of my pressure headaches, but i'm a glutton for punishment and closed down around 11- 11.30pm.

Thursday 15/3/07.

This morning when "?" came in he took me to get a couple of bits from the shop. The rest of the morning was quite, then "A" came round for a few minutes then left. "?" again watched racing on TV while i went to my room and watched Midsommer Murders and read some of the book "L" went to get for me.

I have been reading the book i mentioned in my last entry NEW&YOU by John Marshall Mills. This book is about the meaning of life. John has written a story about thoughts and feelings and is explained in sections of the story and how and why we come to feel the way we do and how to deal with our feeling and the choices we make and our reactions to certain choices we make weather they be right or wrong. I am almost half way through this book and i feel that i have made the right choice of investment. 

"?" has been reading this book and has found it helpful to him too! Anyway, that is all for now...Best wishes to one and all

Saturday, Sunday, Monday...

Saturday 10/3/07. Today, "?" and i went to collect "ST" as normal. "L" told me she had ordered a book for me, i gave her the money way back in January for it, but had to wait for it to be available in the shops. The book is called  NEW YOU by John Marshall Mills, she will be collecting it this week. 

"L" was also telling me, she too is having probs with the internet,she's got NTL. Her comp is running slow and sluggish, freezes and she is getting ERROR messages from microsoft. Maybe, this is normal with the internet as so many people are having the same probs.

As "?" and "ST" and myself drove away from "A" flat we spotted little "D" ( aunt "D" friend ) she was walking a long to the shops near "A" to collect her new glasses that she told me about last week when i met her in a shop.

Sunday 11/3/07. was a quite day for me really, "?" came in for an hour and left again. My daughter rang to tell me about what BT were going to do. They are going to charge people who are not paying their bills with Direct Debit £4.98p on top of their bills. I was paying mine by BT payment card at the pay point shops, so i phoned and changed it over to Direct Debit there and then, so i've allready got mine sorted now. BT will be sending out letters about this with the next billing dates.

Monday 12/3/07. Not much has happened today. "?" has'nt been feeling too good lately, but has been keeping himself busy. He has an appointment with the GP next Friday and a follow-up appointment with the Neurologist 23/5/07. I got "A" appoinment with the gastroscopy wrong in my last entry, his appointment is this month 21 or 23, i can't remember what "A" said when his appointment will be.

I still can't add any graphics on AOL, but i can on Yahoo! and MSN, why this is happening i still don't know. Anyway, i will leave it here as i want to have an early night and watch some TV. I hope you all have a good week and best wishes to one and all...

appointments, appointments...

Monday 5/3/07. ? went along for his appointment with the neurologist and he confirmed that ? has got Fibromyalgia Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. The consultant sent him for a full blood count blood test, he is also concerned that ? blood pressure as is quite high and he has a follow up appointment 14/5/07. ? has also got Heart Disease and had three stents inserted into his heart May 2005 and is due for a review at the London Hospital this year. He has also got a few more health problems that would take too long to go into right now, but some of youwill already know about this.

Monday night, my daughter "SH" phoned to say her and "Z" were coming round in the morning as "Z" had the day off school as the boilers in her school had broken down, but i had to put her off from coming round as i had an appointment at the Glaucoma clinic that morning. I phoned "SH" Tuesday evening, she said as they were near my aunt "D" house she popped in to see her for a couple of hours.

Tuesday 6/3/07. I too went for my appointment at the Glaucoma clinic. I had my eye pressures and fields tests done. The pressure in my right eye has decreased, it is now 14.0, but last time i went there it was 18.0. so now both eyes are normal on that scale. The fields test is still the same and the Dr. said she will see if there is any change on my next visit, but if not they will consider an opperation on my right eye. When i saw another Dr. last time i think he said the same thing.

Wednesday 7/3/07. was a quite day. In the evening i went online i tried to write my journal, but was side tracked by my next door neighbor "T" better known online as "TopCat" anyway, he IM me and we played checkers for a while, it passed the time, then i wrotemy entry, but could'nt save it, so i just left it and closed down for the night and watched TV for a while.

As you can see i've got no graphics, why i can't put them on here i don't know! when i try to put graphics on here i get cut off and have to sign in again. It happened when i tried to add graphics to my Yahoo blog too. I have been browsing Yahoo! groups the last couple of evenings that had joined and some of their links that interested me.

"ST" will be here this Saturday as normal i have no more to say, so i hope you all have a good evening and a great weekend...Best Wishes to one and all...

Appointment Changes...

Last Wednesday "?" got a phone call from the hospital, they had changed his Neurology appointment to this Monday 5/3/07. My son had the same thing happen to him last week. he had an appointment for gastroscopy Monday 26/2/07. He was rushed to hospital last year, he had torn his oesaphagus. His new appointment is for the same day 5/3/07. I've got an appointment for the Glaucoma clinic on Tuesday 6/3/07. So, we all have a busy week with Hospital appointments.

Aunt "D" got her boiler fixed on Tuesday last, so that problem has been solved. I posted my letter to my cousin "F" in Canada on Tuesday and renewed my TV Licence for  another year. My brother-in-law came round Thursday, we had'nt seen him since christmas. It was nice to see him, as always. He is a lovely fellow.

I went to the supermarket Friday and bumped into aunt "D" friend little "D". We chatted for a while, then we went our seperate ways. I bought a loaf of bread while i was there and when i got it home and opened it, it was all doughy and uncooked inside and i had to throw it away. By night time, i was feeling fatigued and had one of my bad headaches, so i had an early night and was in bed by half seven without the TV on.

There are no graphics on here, because i don't seem to be able to get them on here lately, why i don't know... i'm getting error messages.

Today, "?" and i went to collect "ST" for the day. We had a lovely day together, but he did'nt stay over. "?" took him home on his way out. I will leave it here and hope you are all having a great weekend...
