Eventful weekend...lollollol.

with thanx to Roxy for this sweet graphic...

Friday 29/6/07... This morning "?" came in around 8:30am. Later, "A" came round with "?" brothers youngest children about 10:30am. "A" was looking after the children while "T" and "S" had to go somewhere for the day. They did'nt stay for long, the rest of the day was quite.

Later, "?" and i went round to see "L", she was getting ready to take "ST" and "J" to the cinema this evening to see "Fantastic Four". On the way to "L" we had stopped at traffic lights and there were white men provoking some asian men outside an Indian Resturant, there were more asians standing inside the shop doorway, then a car pulled up and more white men got out and went towards the shop. I hav'nt a clue as to what went on there. Anyway, on the way back, as passing the shop, i was pleased to see the police ad arrived to deal with the situation. When we got home "?" stayed for an hour then left around 6:30pm and i settled to watch TV for a while then went online.

I had loads of unsavoury advertising Emails to delete they were of a sexual nature. I really don't like anything like that at all, but it seems to be in my face each time i go to look in my Emails. I've contacted Sky.com my server a few times, but i don't get any reply from them concerning this matter and as for sending these kind of mish-mash to junk mail, i don't know how to do this on Sky, i've tried before.

Saturday 23/6/07... When "?" came in this morning, he had a chesty cough on him, i think he might need Antibiotics. At 8am "?" took me to get a few bits for the weekendand10:30am we went to pick "ST" up, he will be staying over night. We all had a good chat and a laugh when we gothome, the day went quitely and quickly. This evening, after "?" had left, "ST" and i had our tea and settled to watch Dr Who, "ST" went online once Dr Who had ended and i settled to watch TV in my room.

Sunday 24/6/07... "?" came in at 9:15am. and on our way out we took "ST" home as i'm going to Aunt "D" house for the day, Anyway, On the way the traffic was really heavy on the Heathway hill passing the rain station, so we went the long way round. After we had dropped "ST" off home, we turned out onto the main road. ( this is the other side of the Heathway hill ) the traffic was quite heavy here too, which is unusuall for a Sunday, i hav'nt aclue to what was happening there. "?" dropped me off at Aunt "D" house for the day.

Aunt "D" was'nt too well in herself and seems to have lost some more weight from when i last saw her. I was sitting on the sofa chatting to aunt "D" when i saw something move. Eeek, i went! it was a mouse. Aunt "D" screached and held her legs up in the air and theres me falling about all over the place with laughter...lollollol. this was mostly at the sight of Aunt "D" with her legs in the air, even Aunt "D" could'nt stop laughing...lollollol. Oh my poor head was killing me with pain, oh dear me what a laugh we had. The mouse ended up behind the patio-door curtains, so i opened the door and soon the mouse scooted out. My cousin "P" phoned and we had a lengthy chat, then my Aunt "G" phoned and we too had a long chat. This afternoon, Aunt "D" friend came round and we all had a chat and a good laugh. We all had a good day together. but it went by so quickly. "?" came to pick me up around 5:30pm to take me home, we all said our good-byes and we set off for home. "?" stayed for an hour then left, i settled to rest and watch TV, then i came online for a while.

It was half hour before my computer would start tonight. It just would not click over. I was going to give up, but it eventually clicked over and came on. Looks like something is amiss and needs attention...I hope you've all had a great weekend, i know i have. Best Wishes to one and all and i hope your week will be good for you... 

     Astra!

Busy Week...

 

Tuesday 19/6/07... ? came in 6:15am this morning. At 8:15am we left to go and pick "ST" up and took him to school, because of this bullying. 11am "?" took me to the diabetic clinic. The nurse is arranging for me to see a dietician and exercises that i can do with all my health problems taken into account and to see a chiropodist. As for the diet, i am having the right foods, but i think i need to cut down a lot on my intake, the trouble is, i'm getting bouts of being hungry and being very thirsty.

I've got another appointment on Monday to see another diabetic nurse to show me how to use the machine and how to record my blood sugars.

The man from the council came to repair the leak under my kitchen sink and seal the sink taps in the bathroom that he put in the other day. He moaned a couple of times about coming back to do the repairs and it is putting him out as he has got lots of houses to visit. This man was getting on my nerves with his remarks, so i said to him, if you had done the job properly in the first place then you would'nt have had to come back would you???  He did'nt like that one bit and looked put out. Well, if its good for me, then its good for him. After all, its his job not mine. Its my job to pay my rent ect... and report any maintenace work the council do and for me to maintain the house.

"?" left at 4:30pm today and phoned aunt "D" to let her know that i will be round for the day this Sunday coming. She is'nt too well again with a water infection and she is in pain, she is prone to infections and gets them regular.

Wednesday 20/6/07... "?" came in at 4:15am. I went abck to bed while he settled on the sofa, much to early for me. I got up again at 7:30am to get ready as we were to pick "ST" up and drop him off to school.

When we got home i got on with a couple of chores while "?" defrosted my freezer as it needed cleaning. After dinner, i watched some TV in my room while "?" watched TV in the lounge. Later we went to pick "ST" up from school and took him home.

When we got home, "SH" phoned and wanted to speak to "?" about a disrupting situation thats going on at the moment. "?" left at 7pm and "SH" phoned back soon after to give me some info to tell "?" tomorrow. Why is it theres always that one person who causes a disruption in the family ( i don't mean "SH" )

Thursday 21/6/07... "?" came in at 7:15am this morning, a bit later we went to pick "ST" to take him to school, but he did'nt go today as his Hay Fever was playing up and he had no meds and his eyes were swollen and runny and he had a cough and snuffles. So, i said to "L" we will take him home with us as she had to go out and do a few things herself after she had taken "J" to school.

When we got home we left "ST" indoors with a cold flannel across his eyes while we went to get a few bits from the shop. Then when i got home i got on with few things indoors while "?" mowed the backgarden lawn. After dinner, "ST" went to his room and played his X-Box games, he was feeling a lot better than earlier although his eyes were still a bit sore and red. "?" watched TV in the lounge while i went to my room and watched TV. We took "ST" home around 3:30pm after "L" had picked "J" up from school.

I hav'nt had time lately to read any journal or do anything that i like to do online. I have been feeling too tired of an evening and have been having early nights.

Oh yeah! i'm having problems with switching on my computer. When i press the button to switch on, it won't start up or it takes a long while to click and catch to switch on... its a right pain, but a couple of times it came on first time. Once the computers on, i leave it on just incase it won't start again...

If your wondering how i remember all these things well, i don't. What i have been doing is keeping a daily diary, because sometimes i get bouts of i can't remember from one minute to the next and i have to look a lot of stuff up in my diary.

Bullying and Miracle Babe...

with thanx to Donna for this lovely tag...

Friday 15/6/07... This morning "?" and i went round "L" to discuss "ST" problem. Then off we all went to the school to keep the appointment with the head of year at 11:20am. "L" went in to speak to the head and "?" and i waited outside. It seems that nothing can be done about this boy as it is racial, surely it is racial against "ST" too??? ( what rot that is ) The head is going to talk about bullying in assembly on Tuesday and "ST" will be allowed home 5 mins earlier than the rest of the school. Where's the discipline in that???  If it happens again "ST" said he's not going back to school...These schools don't seem to be doing anything to stop the bullying

You know i've mentioned my neighbors "T" several times who lives next door, well, his daughter "J" and her baby "K" were in the local and national newspapers this week and they were on the BBC London news this evening too! "J" had a bad pregnancy and the baby was 11 weeks premature, little "K" died 3 times and had part of her bowel taken away. She was having her feeds and she kept bloating and swelling, but not passing anything and there was something wrong with her blood too, so they had to take part of the bowel away...Bless Her, shes been through so much at such a young age with so many complications, its a miracle shes alive. When she was born 14/2/07.she weighed in at 2lbs-1oz. and now weighs 6lbs and is coming along nicely. Little "K" will be going into hospital 2/7/07. and will have her operation to replace her bowel...God Bless Her, i do hope all goes well for her. I don't know any more at the moment, only bits that "T" and "J" have told me.

Saturday 16/6/07... "?" came in at 6:30am this morning, he has got a bit of a cold on him and is feeling unwell, i hope i don't catch it.

Later, after i got my weekend shopping, we went to pick "ST" up for the weekend. "?", "ST" and i chatted about the school situation. "ST" said he is worried about going back to school on Monday. I put some money on his mobile so he could ring for help if he needed too.

After dinner "ST" went online, "?" watched TV in the lounge and i went to my room and fell asleep...lol. Later, after "?" had left around 6pm "ST" and i settled down to watch TV, later he went online.

I've tried to write this section below, but each time i go to save it goes green again...strange!!!

Tomorrow i will have to get some chores done that i had neglected all week, because "?" had'nt felt to good in himself without his medication Fluoxetine and his head has been very touchy so i could'nt make any noise while he felt this way. The weather has bee very stormy and miserable today.

Sunday 17/6/07... This morning "?" came in early 6am. I went back to bed after a cuppa while "?" settled on the sofa. I got up again 8:30am to get "ST" breakfast. Later at 10:45am "?" and i took "ST" home. When we came home "?" hoovered round for me as i can't move the 3-piece as it is the heafty type. ( as you notice "?" is feeling much better today with his medication) I got on with a few chores that i could do for myself. After "?" and i had our dinner we settled to watch TV for the rest of the day and evening, then "?" left at 9:45pm.

Monday 18/6/07... Today, i got few more chores done that needed doing that i had neglected again all week ( these chores soon mount up )

I've been hurting all week following my weekend break and its taken a long time for the aches and pains to ease down. I did over do the walking while away. I am a slow walker and rested rested quite a lot and this week has really told on me with the aches and pains. Today, "?" and i took "ST" to and fro to school because of this bullying. "ST" said the boy concerned did'nt say anything to him today.

I phoned the council this morning about some more water leaks i had found while cleaning my bathroom sink, that will be included with repairs tomorrow and about my boiler that has gone up the creek too.The men came to fix my boiler today and it is now working fine.

I bought a book last week called "Hidden Aggenda's" by Derek Lewis. Its about Polotics, Law and Disorder and the Prison Services. I'm finding it quite interesting

This evening "?" left earlier than he had been last week He has got a chesty cough and has been feeling under the weather the last few days. As for me, healthwise i feel ok. I have been feeling unsettled all week with one thing or another thats going on around me, but not depressed.

I've started knitting my cardi again now that my hands are not so painful. I'm off now to watch some TV and have a rest, so i hope you all have a great week...Best Wishes to one and all...

Problems and Birthday...

Above is a pic of "Z" birthday cake with her baby pic on it...

Monday 11/6/07... The weekend is now telling on me. I have aches and pains in my legs and a lot of pains in my feet too. "A" came by for a while then left. "ST" and "Z" were either on the computer or the X-Box today. In the afternoon, "?" and i took the kids home around 3:30pm and "?" left around 6pm. Later, i went online to answer a couple of emails and closed down and had an early night.

Tuesday 12/6/07... This morning "?" took me to get my shopping in for the week and i returned my parcel ( my tops, they were too big ) The man came to put new washers in my taps.

This afternoon "?" cut his hair with the new clippers he had bought and i straightened up the back for him. "?" left around 7:15pm this evening.

Later i went online to upload some pics i had taken at Gt.Yarmouth and Caister. I will have to buy some discs to transfer them too.

Wednesday 13/6/07... This morning "?" came in at 5:15am. ( i was'nt happy ) he brought in with him some bits of clothing for "Z". I think they will be too small for her as she is big for her age. He also brought in a DVD that i wanted to borrow "The Queen". It is now 8:45am and it is warm and the sun is shining.

I've put my battries on charge, because "SH" wanted to borrow my camera tomorrow for "Z" birthday party she is 8yrs old tomorrow...I wonder what the rest of the day will bring, i'm feeling tired already.

This morning i went to pick up a prescription from the Drs. surgery for "?", but it was'nt ready and i had to go back for it this afternoon at 1:30pm.

On our return, "T" next door asked "?" for his help fixing his new lawn-mower together, so he helped him. "A" came by for a short while then left.

Later after dinner, i returned to pick-up the prescription at the surgery and it had been taken over to the chemist, so off i went and it was there at the chemist and i still had to wait again. "?" had his meds "Fluoxetine capsuls" he had already missed out on 2 days of medication which was telling on him.

Thursday 14/6/07... This morning, i got a surprise."ST" knocked at the door at 8:15am. He came round to us instead of going to school. The boys who started on him before was waiting for him to go to school to beat him up

I phoned "Z" at 8:30am and sang# HAPPY BIRTHDAY# to her she is 8 yrs old today. I gave her money so she can buy what she wants.

Later when the school was open, "?" phoned and spoke to the head of year and made an appointment to see him tomorrow about "ST" being bullied. We let "L" know that "ST" was at ours and we would bring him home when we go round "SH" house for "Z" birthday party

Later we went to "Z" birthday party. "Z" had her friends in they were having a good time. "SH" friend was there too. "?" discussed "ST" problem with "A" and "L"... Later, "?" and i went home and "?" left at 9:45p.

I'm off now to write my follow-up entry...Best Wishes to you all.

Weekend Break...

with thanx to Dianna for this beautiful graphic...

We all had a great time at the weekend and i have added some pics that i took while we were away.

 

Saturday 9/6/07... This morning after breakfast we all went for a walk around the campsite and bought a few bits in the shop on the way back. We took the bit of shopping home and went along to the adventure park. 

 

"Z" ran off in front to play in the adventure park untill we caught up with her ( she was always in our sight's). Then "Z" and "ST" went on the steep slide a couple of times and on the motor-bikes. "Z" could'nt control the bike and we all had a laugh at her antics, it was so funny to see, she kept bumping into things and ended up sideways...lol.

 

Later, when we returned to the caravan "Z" wanted to go swimming so she got herself ready, then "ST" decided he wanted to go too. The pool was oppisite where we were. so off we all went into the swimming area "?" and i sat at the side while the two kids played about in the pool, they were having a whale of a time, they only had twenty minutes in there as the pool was closing for dinner, so we went back to the caravan for a rest.

 

Later, we got ready and set off for Gt.Yarmouth. We looked around the shops and walked along the promenade where the arcades were, we spent some time in there. then later, we went on the sea front where the kids went on the trampolines.Then we stopped to have dinner.

I think "?" and i over done the walking as we were hurting although we had plenty of rests. We went back to the caravan and rested before we went to the clubhouse in the evening.

 

Once we had rested, we got ready and off we set again for the arcades first then the club house to watch the entertainment and we had a drink each. Then we went back to the arcades before we set off back to the caravan. We got back in time to see the results of Any Dream Will Do.We settled to watch TV.

 

"SH" text me, then "Z" and i were texting her back and forth for a while, then "Z" and i settled down for the night and left "?" and "ST" chatting in the lounge area. "ST" went to his room and "?" settled in the lounge for the night.

 

Sunday 10/6/07... "Z" and i went out to the shop and walked around the camp. On the way back "Z" ran off in front to the adventure park untill i caught up with her, then i sat down and watched her for a while, then we made our way back.

 

When we got back "?" had tided up while we were out. "Z" wanted to go swimming again, so she got ready and i took her over the pool and i sat at the side. "ST" did'nt want to go. We were there for an hour and came back. Then "Z","ST" and i went to the beach. I sat at the top while they were on the beach and watched them.

 

Later, we went into Gt.Yarmouth again had our dinner out again and went off to the arcades and i put "Z" on quite a few rides that she wanted to go on. "Z" wanted to go on the snail roller-coaster and "ST" did'nt and i could'nt as i was hurting enough already, so i took her on a smaller ride that was'nt bumpy and she was happy with that.

 

When we got back to the caravan, "?" wanted me to cook him dinner as he did'nt eat any while we were out. I had intended to rest before we went out later. After "?" had dinner, he was ready to go over the clubhouse, but i could'nt as i was tired and hurting to much and i knew i would'nt make it without a rest, so we did'nt go.

 

We gathered our belongings together ready to pack in the car, then we decided to go home this evening instead. We packed the car up, tided the caravan up and dropped the keys off at reception and off we set for home, we left at 8pm. The road was clear once again, we stopped 3 or 4 times a long the way and we arrived home at 10:30pm.

 

Once we got home, i made the tea while "?" and the kids unpacked the car. We were so tired.

 

Once "?" had his cuppa and a rest, then he left and went home. Then "ST" went off to his bed and "Z" and i went to my bed. "Z" was all arms and legs. I got kicked in the ribs and elbowed in the face a couple of times in the night...

Well, thats all my pics and i will leave it here and i hope you all have a good rest of the week. Best Wishes to one and all... with thanx to Dianna for this lovely tag!
