The Needle and the Damage Done.


Before I get any more complaints, I know its been a while, I have been busy……...ish, well in a kind of way life got the better of me and I kind of cooled my jets……just a little! As always thanks for the kind platitudes, but I’m not dead yet I just kind of came to a stop, you could say I kind of ran out of gas………...the wife wishes I did LOL!

Education has taken way too much out of me, love me I’m thick, but the recovery time has been longer than anticipated, the main reason why I hated the course was simply because the time I’m doing it nobody does my job, so there’s a lot to catch up with I know I have said this before, but hey I’m getting older I’m not as fit(fat) as I used to be!

Health has also been a factor and my ill health has been kicking my arse big style, no I’m not giving up but I have to concentrate and deal with my issues, I have to stop kidding myself that I can do this every other day, this is life threatening and I have to put my big boy pants on, suck it up buttercup and again this is not a “oh I’m not well” I’m not, however it’s my health, so it’s me that has to fix it.
I have also had to deal with the return of the vermin in my attic, more poison, more traps, they seem to raise their heads every 9 months or so,  I  have an older  neighbor who hasn’t done any maintenance to her house in a few years and she is not as blessed in the sight and sound department, I think I need to catch up with her sons when they turn up and tip them the wink, I also seem to have a small cousin of the attic vermin in my shed I shall be spending the rest of the day trying to deal with that, I will give it one chance to leave after that I am going to go all out killer on it.

I have still been writing working on bits and pieces, but pessimism has been the order of the day, but you never know when inspiration strikes and hopefully in the run in to the new year there should be some historic blogs on the way (incoming) I do feel as though that I’m back in the saddle in a writing kind  of way, I haven’t fallen out of love with writing, just crap keeps getting in the way, usually it’s me!

I had a strange day yesterday as G & E where having a weekend away, pubs and lifeboats being mentioned and G kept mentioning me (I’m hoping that he’s missing me……..sob, not as much as I miss them…….even bigger sob) stuff like that makes me miss the tee hee club, work conspires against us as the wife keeps been given shifts that mean we can’t visit like we used to (the wife is a bigger cripple than me and she cant do work and then party all night long like she used to, ok I mean have a couple of soft drinks) however we did get a lovely visit from part of the South Shields massive, boy did that help.

Tomorrow its yet again back to work back to the quacks, more needles and I now will have to take insulin in my fight for fitness, I know  in the end it’s a battle that we all lose, I however have no intention on being beaten on this, I’m no quitter and this is something I intend to fight long and hard to do my bit, I have seen too many friends suffer at the hands of ill health I do not intend to be one of them ( I know I’m a dumb ass as I’m already suffering however I do not wish to suffer any more than I am).

Life is still crap but it’s my life so why can’t I have some luck, not much, just a small amount, I still have to deal with an angry wife, I still suffer the consequences of stupidity every day when I go on Farcebook and when I deal with the people I have to deal with at work, I know its all about the grand tapestry of life, but I am just a tad worn down with some of the crap, hey ho I know I will just have to dust myself down and crack on.

Life does indeed go on and although I’m starting to feel like a human pin cushion, that’s diabetes for you, however there has been some extreme cunning plans being made in a major life changing way, nothing in a friend way but more in a family way (it’s all good…honest) something long term that will take huge amounts of planning and some money , there is a plan lets just see if it comes to fruition, so here’s the deal more blogs are coming, more historic ones are coming, I know, I know you have heard it all before but watch this space you may be pleasantly surprised.

What I have been doing over the weeks is reducing my social media foot print, not leaving what space I have, simply posting less and less, this is simply because of the amount of negativity that’s out there in the big bad world, this is further compounded by the negative effect on someone who I class as a friend and if we had made our acquaintance earlier in life I would like to think that  he would have been a much larger part in my life as he is such a huge source of inspiration, but some of the shit he has had to put up with from so called friends well, if that’s what you call friendship I want as little of it as possible, I do not understand the ethic that “if I’m unhappy I will make all around me unhappy” life’s too short and in the end we all have to return our library books intact, if you can make sure that you could improve someone’s life why don’t you try it, you never know you might like it!
So enough of me and my twittering sorry for the delay but normal service has been resumed watch the skies for incoming keep spreading the disease, be happy and try do good things for everyone, listen to me prattling like a 1960’s hippy until the next time …………………. Toodles

Oh and yes I have seen the queen movie, did I enjoy it I did, but for me there were too many simple mistakes that should have been avoided, no I’m not going to review, go see it, go enjoy it suspend your drab life for two and a half hours and enjoy some of the majesty that was Freddie Mercury!
