My first full day at home !!

Greetings Worlds !1

It's about 7.30pm here in England - and I'm coming to the end of my first full day at home, no more sleepless days in the "mad house" !! I can't believe, considering I only went in there for, at most, 2 weeks, that it took over 3 months for me to actually get out of the place !!

Oh well - it's "good" to be home.... tho' - straight off the bat, I'm right about one thing !! After a couple of months using the small computer, I'm struggling to use the big keyboard of this ol' thing !! Nevermind - I'll get used to it..... eventually !! It does have the feel of an "old friend" tho'...... so, in that ways, it's "good to be home" !!

I thought I had a problem....... either with the computer, or even the music machine !! There was this low "moan" about the place & I couldn't work out exactly what I was hearing..... all very strange. Anyways - after looking around me - I eventually looked down - to realise our female tabby cat, was sat making growling noises at our baby kitten !! I forget - as everybody had told me - they don't get
on !! I think the kitten wants to be friends - it's just the little girl is not too keen on the relationship !! Oh well - they have to get used to each other...... neither of them is going anywhere for the fore-see-able future !!

So - anyhoo..... the family !!

B & J are home, at the moment......... the former is in the shower, while the latter is in his room. All is quiet in the clan homestead.... and has remained so, for most of the day !! ME was here earlier - but, as she is doing a slew of night shifts, she has spent the day in bed, so.... I've not seen very much of her today !!

Mind you - as it's been a while, since I've spent a day - over the last 3 months - not either in, or on a bed, I'm finding the whole concept of staying awake - for any length of time - a very hard one to grasp.... it has meant I have been asleep myself for most of the day !! I hope - as the days go along, that I will be able to get enough "strength" in these old bones of mine, to stay awake longer & longer...... it'll take a while tho' !!

No matter what - it's great to be home.... and out of the hospital.... hopefully the hole in my back will start to heal over & things will move along - all be it, a slow bit at a time !! Tomorrow - oop's !! There is that word again !! Anyhoo - back to tomorrow - if all goes to plan....... I'm having my first visit from the traveling nurse lady.... or, actually, it could be a man - I hadn't thought of that !!

Anyways - at some point, tomorrow, a nurse is going to show up & change my dressings. I would of been of happier if she/he could of 'phoned today and arranged a time, but..... that didn't happen !! Oh well. I, at least, hope we will get a call at some point, early, tomorrow !! As I say, very often.... time will tell !!

Anyways - I've been playing one of my Allman Brothers concerts, that came - just - before I went into hospital. It was recorded on 17-9-2005 at Council Bluff IA and, the bit I heard has been really good...... I don't know all of the tracks as yet - but, it's well good !! More of the concerts another time..... tho' - I must admit, I'm looking forward to buying the new shows, from their latest 2013 shows !!

Ok - now it's time to close for tonight - I'm still feeling knackered..... given how long I've slept today, I don't know why.... oh well - as time goes on, hopefully things will improve !! Must away.... until next time....

Bye Bye
