'Hesitation Marks' Ho-hum.....

Hi again World's !!

I'm sorry to say, I've been away from the keyboard, since last Thursday - I'm really sorry about that !! One thing has pushed out another & before I knew it, 5 days have come & gone...... I've really been tardy !! You better take me out back & shoot me...... oh well....

It's another Tuesday & I'm sat here, listening to the latest Dream Theater album.... 'The Astonishing'. Since I bought myself a copy, a few weeks back, it has really grown on me !! I keep playing it, over & over - it's well good, go out & buy yourself a copy !!

As for the family - My Wife & Dearest Friend... B... is about here, someplace. She's been doing a bundle of housework this morning, moving bits of furniture around, to their Summer places.

It's hard to put into words really - but, every Summer, the furniture, here in the living room, gets moved around !! B's rocking chair is over by the window & the couch has moved to the centre of the room - all very strange.... but, it makes sense to us.

What the cats will make of it, well... time will tell on that one !! Each night, at least 3 of them, at least, jump up to their favourite sleeping places.... now tho, their places have been moved around !! I suspect there will be a little bit of puzzlement, between them...... I will try & remember to let you know, how things go !!

Staying with family......

Yesterday we spent some time, "baby sitting" HJ !! ME - our Daughter - had to have an eye test... sooooo, B & I went over to the house for a couple of hours, just to look after the wee one.

I really loved it... especially as I was able to give her a long cuddle !! B fed her & changed he nappy, after which I was able to hold my Grand daughter for about 30 minutes, until ME came back to the house....... it was brilliant, it really was !!

I've not felt too well, this past week...... to hold HJ, like that, really made me feel a lot better. It didn't matter, just how poorly I felt, holding her swept everything else, out of my mind !!

As for the rest of the family..... well, M was working, so we didn't get to see him. Mind you - had he been home, we wouldn't of had the need to baby sit HJ !! Oh well.....

As I've been feeling a bit under the weather, I saw my local Dr. yesterday.... he, once again, put me on some more pills, to try & help things along !!

We had to decide, if the pains in my back, were connected to the old operation - a kind of infection there, or if it was some other infection, a new one, which was causing all of the new pains.

Personally, I think it's connected to the old surgery - but.... I'm hoping I'm wrong !! I do not want to go back into hospital again, to have another operation !!

I think we all agree now, that my heart is Ok & hasn't had any kind of attack, over the past few months. Life is good - I don't need any more health problems !!

Staying with "yesterday" - I picked up a copy of Nine Inch Nails's 2013 album 'Hesitation Marks'. I've not played it yet, but the tracks are:

  1) The Eater Of Dreams
  2) Copy Of A
  3) Came Back Haunted
  4) Find My Way
  5) All Time Low
  6) Disappointed
  7) Everything
  8) Satellite
  9) Various Methods Of Escape
10) Running
11) I Would For You
12) In Two
13) While I'm Still Here
14) Black Noise

At some point - I'll turn the amp down to deafening & give it a blast thru' the Bose...... I'm looking forward to that !!

For now tho' - I best think about shutting the computer off & giving my fingers a rest...... I need to sit in my comfy chair....... after all, nobody expects the comfy chair !!

I thank you all, for reading my words & for coming back to my blog, month after month !! As I say - it's good to know that you're out there..... until next time.....

Bye Bye
