How is your bit of the Universe treating you, this fine Saturday morning ?! It's a bright & breezy day, here in England's South-West corner.... there is a bank of low cloud, out towards the beach, but - it's too bloody cold to be Sun bathing today !!
As I type - My Wife & Dearest Friend - B is behind me, kind of doing some dishes. I was due to do them myself - but.... !! Either I wasn't quick enough, or..... well, I would of done them, sat on my little chair thingy, but... B has decided to crack on with them first !!
As for the rest of the family..... I have no clue what is happening with J - our Son.... he is somewhere in this Universe of ours !! I'm not on his "people to let know what is happening" type of list, sooooo - I have no clue what he's doing !!
I'm guessing he still hates my guts ?! This has been confirmed, if you like, by his wanting to meet up with B - sometime in August - but not me. Strike 3 Son.... "you're out of here" !! I might have written all of this before - but, he sent B a text, saying he wanted to meet up with "......Mum" & not me !!
B asked if he wanted to come to the house - to which there was a big "No" !! Sooooo - at some point, B is going to meet up with him, in Taunton. It's only 10 miles from here, over the hills.... so, if he can't come to see me, being that close - well.... "f**k you !!" as the the old Anglo Saxon would have it !! As I say - that's "Strike 3"..... I've had enough now..... !!
As for the M & M's - well.... ME was here a couple of days ago..... I'm not 100% what they're doing over the weekend - I think they might be going to see 'Antman' the latest film, in the 'Marvel Comics' thingy. Is it 'Marvel Comics' ?! I don't rightly know....... I read a review of it, in the 'paper - it didn't get a very high mark !! Oh well...... that's it for the family....
Sooooo - I better explain why it's taken over 2 weeks to write anything.... !!
If you go back, to my last post - that was 2 weeks ago yesterday - I thought I had pulled something, over my rib area. Well - I got that completely wrong !! To explain.....
On the Saturday - I woke up, really unable to move, due to the pain.... it turned out, what I thought was a muscle pull, was another infection & it had gone right around & attacked my back again !! B had 'phoned the Dr. - but, he called an ambulance & I was once again, on my ways to the hospital. I spent some time in A & E - but, within a couple of hours, I was transferred to a ward & that's where I stayed, for most of the last 15 days.
My Consultant was kind of upset - because it was my 3rd stay in hospital, since February !! But, it's just another thing to chalk up to experience...... kind of, but it bloody hurt, all the same !! That was the Saturday....
By the Sunday, the decision was made to remove all the metal work.... kind of a scary thought !! I could understand why - the common fault, in all my stays, this year, has been connected with infections, with the metal........ that was Sunday.....
On the Tuesday, I signed up the consent forms & I was due into theatre in the afternoon...... 1st tho' - I had another MRI....... my 2nd or 3rd this year !! After that - the surgery was called off !! I was really up for it - I had set my brain, into "Surgery Mode" & when it was called off, it was a kind of anti-climax.... nevermind.....
It was decided that I was a little too poorly.... sooooo, I can understand that. Unfortunately, as the week went on, I got better & better.... which, given the "anti-climax" of the Tuesday, it was decided not to operate at all !! Sooooo - on the Wednesday, of this week, I decided I was going home......
My Consultant wanted me to stay, but.... as I've said before, when I say "I'm going home" - they just let me get on with it !! I had a line, stuck in my arm, right thru' to my chest..... but, I had that out !! I wasn't coming home with that stuck in me !! Anyhoo - by Wednesday afternoon, I was home..... I couldn't stay there any longer, it was doing my head in !!
So - that's where I've been this past 2 weeks.... sorry I've not written before, but just being home was a good enough, now...
This coming week, I have to go down to the hospital, in Exeter, to see the plastic surgeons, but that's just a check over (I hope).... I don't think he's hoping to keep me in, but time will tell on that one !! I don't want to stay, but.... he'll have to catch me first !!
Just took a few hours break...
We watched the GP qualifying... how long JB will put up with a car that either breaks down, or is sooooo off the pace... well, he's a great driver - but he has to have a car under him !! Oh well.....
....... from there, we went shopping for some odds & ends. I picked up a 3 Cd set of so-called "Huge Hits From The Hippie Trail". How Elton John's 'Tiny Dancer' or Lynyrd Skynyrd's 'Sweet Home Alabama' were part of the 1960's "Hippie" times, I have no clue.... but, what the heck !! It's all music !!
Talking of which.... ho-hum !!
I have not really played any Cd's - well, except for the iPod - when I was in hospital..... B's plan was to take me to Exeter & let me go mad in HMV - but, that didn't happen, sooooo.... since I've been home, I've ordered up a load of albums, including...
The last 3 Led Zeppelin re-issues (hopefully the last !!)
Roger Waters new re-issue of 'Amused To Death'
The latest Neil Young....
A DVD of a live Gregg Allman concert (from Hittin' The Note'
.... plus some other stuff...... I can't remember them all !!
I will let you know, as & when stuff gets here - it's going to be fun playing them all !! Sooooo many new albums, hopefully, I will be home long enough to enjoy them, as they get here !! It should be
fun !!
Right - I best be on my ways..... I have to write a letter of complaint to my local Dr's surgery !! One of the receptionist took it upon herself, to give away personal details, about my healthcare, to a nurse in the hospital !!
That might sound dumb - but, she broke all the rules, by answering a 'phone call, without checking who was on the other end of the line !! It could of been anybody !! So - I'm going to complain.... I am really pissed off with this Dr's - they are getting worse & worse - it's stupid & the staff need to be kicked up the ass !!
I also have the whole of Jon's old room, to sort out, ready for what I want to do with it....... I'll strip the bed down, box up his remaining stuff & then measure up for whatever I do with it after that !! He's not coming home - unless he gets in touch PDQ !! I can't imagine that's going to happen..... sooooo, I'll use the room for myself !! Sounds like a plan to me !!
Must go - it's been a long afternoon....... after being stuck in the hospital, for so long, I can't believe how knackered I am !! Oh well - things to do !!
I thank you all for reading my words..... until next time......
Bye Bye
