Whatever comes to mind I can’t think of a category for… or can’t be faffed making one for.
Good question. The wife is insisting the kids can go to school tomorrow by bus and she’s suggested mobilising the niece and nephew, asking them to collect the kids so they can go to ice-skating. This is a possibility but they might not realise just how long they need to stay there! Still, if the … More And tomorrow?
I suppose there are worse predicaments to be in. While it’s true I’ve not walked very far from my bed today in deference to the doctors wishes and the wife’s orders (:)) and have been bored at times, things could be worse. I’m sitting here watching the cricket on the laptop, and surrounded by the … More Things could be worse… probably.
When I left hospital they gave me a load of drugs I had to take. Paracetamol, Cephalexin, Oxycodone, and Diclofenac. I took a dose of each last night before sleep and had no ill effects at all, but when I took them again this morning it made me feel absolutely awful. Having looked up each … More Still here.
There I was on Wednesday morn full of confidence the worst of this was over… and then the jinx took over again having had yet another laugh at my expense. Thursday morning I got a call from a doctor at Westmead Hospital. The person who’d assessed the x-rays the previous Friday had passed them up … More What a difference a day makes.
Spent yet another morning doing nothing and I’m bored rigid!! Just *why* I should be bored I don’t really know. I have the TV, a selection of DVD’s, books, magazines, and the laptop which gives me access to the entire Internet! But bored I am! Still, today I have been sitting in an armchair propped … More Bored 😦
Just to add to the woes… the enforced relaxation has made my back flare up again! I must have been lying in an awkward position or something and ‘pulled’ something. I’m dosed up (again) on anti-inflammatories and paracetamol but it’s not having much effect as yet. Jinx! The wife did an amazing job yesterday clearing … More Doesn't rain but…
The recent spate of appalling weather has been a bit of a double edged sword for Sydney in general and for us in particular. The rain of the past two months has ruined many a holiday including that of the daughter and grandkids from the UK. It’s soaked through everything,made a mess of the swimming … More Warragamba Dam
Rang the store to ask for a copy of the ‘Accident Report’ in case the solicitor wants to see their version. This reminds me I need to extract the blog post and write it a little more accurately to give to a solicitor… I think the online version, whilst accurate, isn’t really adequate. 🙂 And … More Contacted Bunnings
In Oliver Twist, Charles Dickens said “the law is an ass” and over the years the legal system has shown that there was good reason for his comment. Since his day of course things have gone slowly and steadily downhill to the extent that in the UK a woman is being made to stand trial … More The Law is an Ass!
It’s quite dry today. The sun is shining and all’s well with the world. Temperatures aren’t too high either so perhaps while I have time I ought to get out and mow the grass before the rain comes again… as the weather forecast tells us it will, and soon!! So much work, so little time….. … More And so back to work.
