  • A little time

    So. D and the kids are off camping, they set off on Saturday for 9 days of camping all around Scotland. I’m here, at home with the dogs, unsupervised. The occupational therapy nurse came today and I managed to get up off the sofa with one hand and not face-planting. They still want me to…

  • Pictures that amuse me

  • A touch too much

    I’m tired. I would say I did a lot today but its hard to say you’ve done a lot when you can’t get about. I’ve found the exercises from the Occupational Therapist and did them today. Was shattered after 30 mins. Think I pushed it too much. I will get better. I will get stronger.…

  • Life

    B had his end-of-school play today, the Leavers show, as he heads to high school in September. They did Grease. I feel ashamed that I was probably the only one in the audience who hadn’t watched it. Knew a few of the songs but it was all very confusing. I surmised that Sandra D rode…

  • A picture paints a thousand words

    Firstly, I’m not one to plaster my kid’s faces on the internet but this blog is my space to out my memories and thoughts. This picture is the first time all three of my kids went camping. We stay for a few days, played in the pool, and did some walking and fishing. Now that…

  • Ascension

    Things have been a bit better. I did have a fall in the garden and am licking my wounds but still trying to carry on with a smile on my face. R came round for monthly Dad time, we talked, I got fathers Day presents and it was nice. She is growing up to be…

  • In my dreams

    Today’s lesson is about my dreams. Specifically my dreams of traveling of where I would like to go. I won’t be able to go to any of these places (kids) nor manage walks in cityscapes and rural towns. We now make me a little bit sad if I’m being honest. So in no particular order,…

  • Knowing you, knowing me

    Why did you start blogging? It was a cold depressing day in north Wales. This was back in 1998, the days of the dialup, Napster and all the good stuff before society got in the way. I discovered this thing called blogging and started reading multiple blogs. Most were using something called BlogSpot, which was…

  • Travelator

    The one good thing that my dead parents instilled in me is the importance to travel. To see the world and experience different life across the planet. Granted my Dad used to use that to be racist, for example, “Oi Paki” then turning to me “It’s okay I’ve been there so I can call them…

  • White Ghost

    Today B is at high school for the day to get to know the place ahead of going there full-time in September. This is both awesome and terrifying to me. I managed to leave the house. Sort of. I ordered me and B an Uber since I can’t drive atm and D is at work.…
