I try to deny they are starting, as though that will make any difference. “No, no, I can’t see the beginning of the visual distortion, I’ll just close my eyes for a minute then everything will be ok.” Give it another 10 minutes and my world is ever so pretty, but not very clear. I [...]
Granted she’s sleeping on the cream sofa I have just gained, but hey, she deserves it. She’s basically well again, and it’s so nice to have her back. Thanks dad, for bringing her back.
My house has gained various items, not, as you might first think, due to the fact that I have been extravagant, but because they are excess to Dave’s requirements. It was a case of working out what would fit in my house without overcrowding. I now have a dining table up the other end of [...]
Too much time in the kitchen has driven me mad. I know I need to do the floor, and ultimately I suppose, clean the oven, but really, the floor is difficult because I can’t get at it all and the oven… I just can’t bear it right now.
In a few minutes I’m going to try [...]
but it’s driving me completely mad. I have conjunctivitis, but can’t get a prescription off my doctor as it is rather a distance away, so I popped in to the local pharmacy and got what you can get without prescription, hopefully it will work, in the mean time you don’t mind if I only have [...]

My singing group came to my house for the first time tonight. I was a little concerned as I don’t have enough seats for everyone. In fact in the end due to various factors there were only 7 of us.
I wonder what my neighbours made of it all. We looked at 3 new songs [...]
Though, in fact how can I put them against each other? I have seen a couple of episodes of Joey and about 235 episodes of Friends, so it’s early days.
Friends was great, I was extremely sad when it ended. How can you compete with that?
Joey (Channel 5, Sundays 8pm) well, it’s definitely Joey, which is [...]
I wonder if my mum would prefer a bungee jump or a tandem parachute jump? Perhaps the white water rafting. A CD called ‘I love mum’? no, she doesn’t have a CD player. A Paula Radcliffe footspa?
In fact, I suspect I’d better just think of something myself.
They were everywhere today. People deliver them to school for their working other half. While part of me can see that it makes sense – because afterall they are at work so not home to receive them – another part of me thinks they are just showing off.
