Answer to your comments and how i feel...

Thank-You for your comments...

I think the reason why "A"said he would rather be in prison is because he was in a rage and he was drunk at the time and its a way of getting away from his responsibilities ( would'nt we all) which he has done all this before and he is where he should be for the things that we do know that hes done, of course, we don't know everything he has done and we will never get the real truth, but over the years he has got worse and life has been hell each time he has come out of prison. I think prison has made him worser than before, prison does not deters him, plus hes mixing with the scum of the earth inside and he has become like them. For what i have seen when i had visited other times over the years is they've all got it too cushy inside, yes! they've all lost their liberty, but wheres the punishment too deter offenders of their crimes and to deter them from going back inside. If there was a punishment to fit each crime maybe these people would think twice before they offend again. I think they get too many visits to start with and i think they should'nt be allowed to use the phone at all or write or receive letters or money sent in to them. Prison should mean prison with ALL privileges taken away.

I'm sorry for going on so much, but i do feel strongly about all this.

Trouble On Top Of Trouble

with thanx to chris for this beautiful graphic... Saturday, "L" she is "A" ex-partner has taken the two kids "ST" and "J" on holiday at Gt.Yarmouth for a week, i hope the weather holds for them and they have a lovely time. Friday, i had my eyes tested and for diabetes. The diabetes is clear in my eyes, but my lenses need changing, so with the new lens i've picked a new pair of frames which will collect roughly next Friday or the following Monday. My hubby "?" has been feeling bad this last week due to "A" situation, "?" feel wild with him as i do too and we are both tired of his actions. Saturday, i was almost mugged at the cashpoint. A man lent over my shoulder and i told him to go away, then he done it again and i got nasty with him and swore at him and elbowed him hard in the chest, i think i must have hurt him, he then went way. The lady behind me said he was trying to tell me the machine was'nt working and she lent over to press the clear button and i grabbed my card quickly and i went inside the bank to get my money and i mentioned it to the cashier, she then told me there was a man and a woman trying to fleece people at the cashpoints and have already tried mug a couple of people too at other cashpoints along the street. When i came out of the bank, the man in the shop next door had phoned the police about what these people and told them what they were doing. The couple were black african type people. Friday night was so hot i had to have the fan on most of the night and i could'nt sleep.Yesterday Saturday, was quite.After dinner "?" watched TV in the lounge and went to my room and sat near my fan as it was too hot for me and the air was thin, i've doubled up on my medication for the Asthma."?" left around 5pm and i settled to watch TV for the evening with my fan on full blast. We're never happy are we? If its hot we moan and if its cold we moan. Today has been quite so far. "?" came by this morning and will return later as normal for an hour. I've got a couple of chores done, not much as its too hot to move about. I rang aunt "D" this morning, she is'nt too well in herself and finding it too hot for her liking too...as i said, we're never happy with the weather. I will leave it to later when it is cooler to do some more chores. This year so far has been nothing but trouble after trouble.I can't wait to get away for my holiday, still its only a couple of weeks to go now and i certainly need a rest from this mess and hopefully clear the cobwebs from my mind. No-one can say i do'nt have an eventful life and i don't have to go outside my door. My daughter "SH" has just phoned to let me know that "A" phoned a little while ago, he said he is in Pentonville and has to appear in court this Tuesday and was told he is looking at 3 years for taking off the TAG and absconding...I have no more words to say on this subject at present except as i have said before, i feel indifferent. At least now we can all rest for the time he will be away and i'm sorry if it sounds harsh, but he does need prison as hes a menace to society. Well, thats all my news and i hope you all enjoy this lovely weather we're having at the moment. Best Wishes and Take Care to one and all... Astra!

Life As It Is...

While "?" was away for 1 week, i got a few chores done at my liesure and relaxed alot and listened to my CDs, reading my book "CRACKDOWN" the anxiousness had left me and i felt so at ease with myself, i had no-one to tell me what to do and no-one came round or phoned me except "?" i was in a world of my own. He phoned me three times to see if i was ok and to let me know where and what he was doing or done. Solitude was what i wanted and Solitude was what i got. I've now finishe the above book and started on another book called "LOST IN THE HIMALAYERS", its about a trekker.

"?" returned  the 4th July. He was telling me all about his holiday in Dorset and the marvelous views and places he had seen.

"ST" came round on the Saturday. "?" and "ST" chatted for quite sometime. In the afternoon "A" came by to collect "ST" as they were going to Southend "J".  "A" waved to me and said hello from the car "A"did'nt come in i waved back. "?" wasn't too happy with me for acknowledging him though and "?" said a few words to me about it which made me feel bad for the rest of the day and evening. I don't know how this situation with "A" and "?" will end up. "SH" phoned me in the evening to tell me that "Z" has to wear glasses as she is short sighted ( like me and "SH" )

I booked my appointment at the hairdressers to have my hair re-styled in three weeks time so that its done for my holiday inAugust.

Last Wednesday, i went along to the GP for a new prescription for my Asthma which has'nt been too bad lately thank-goodness! I've been really lucky these last few of years with not going to and fro to the hospital for medical attention. I started taking Spiriva inhalation powder again because the pollen has been so high lately and i started to feel wheezy at times. I'm ok now that i'm back on my meds. I try not to have them all the time, because i might need them more so in the future. I've been rather stressed out with worry this last week what with one thing or another

I've been having problems with my computer, it keeps freezing and i've had to close down quite a lot lately, which is getting on my nerves.

"SH" phoned me yesterday, to let me know that "A" had been arrested on Monday and has been refused bail when he appeared in court yesterday and he was sent to Birmingham on remand untill 16th August. I hav'nt heard from "A" at all...No-one will be able to visit him there ( personally, i think the prisons are too flippin' easy going and there should be some kind of hard labour introduced to fit the crimes, then maybe, people would think twice about doing wrong. And i think hanging should be brought back for the really bad crimes that we hear of daily )

"L" is taking "ST" and "J" to Gt.Yarmouth Saturday week the 26th for 1 weeks holiday. I hope the weather will be ok for them.

I got a letter from my server SKY and it seems they are going to put the cost of my subsciption up in September, so i'm not sure what to do as yet, whether to stay or go else where.

Well, that all my news of late. I'm going to watch Lewis now on ITV3...All my Best Wishes to one and all and Take Care!
