Ok as most
people know I watch Sunrise of a morning but you know what annoys me
is when on days like today they have a special broadcast and repeat
the same news over and over again I get it Cyclone Debbie is big news
she will be destructive and will affect the lives of many people but
it is still somewhat annoying.
It is now
315pm and I am at last getting back to the computer, this morning I
had to go to the chemist to get Leo's Webster pack for school and of
course take it to the school for him, I also bought more ice cream
for him and this afternoon Tim went mad because I let him have ice
cream this morning after his cereal, whatever Tim I don't care what
you think about this I said it was ok and I am the one here with him.
When I got
home a few minutes ago I got distracted and nearly reversed the car
into the house,and of course Tim went off but I said didn't hit
anything, didn't do and damage so get over it, I was listening to
Blain and his friends and not taking any notice of what I was doing.
Blain just
walked in his mum rang him and told him he has to be here when she
gets here,she annoyed or angry about something and wants to talk to
him face to face.
Leo had his
school photos done today and said he isn't in the class photo as he
wouldn't behave or something. I hope that isn't the case as his mum
paid $40 for the school photos.
Ok started
this yesterday morning, came back to it yesterday afternoon and now
it is Wednesday morning and I am back at it, just got distracted
yesterday afternoon and didn't get it finished, this morning there is
more news about Debbie but at least there is other stuff on Sunrise
and not just Debbie, people are being told to stay home and not go
out if they don't need to. Debbie lasted all day yesterday and into
last night, it is being reported as one of the worst cyclones to hit
Queensland in a bloody long time because it lasted for so long,
thankfully none of my family live in the affected areas. At the same
time they say it wasn't as bad as they thought it would be it was
only because it lasted so long that it is considered so bad.
Of course
they are saying that the price of tomatoes and bananas and sugar will
rise because of the cyclone.
I have
increased my exercise workout of a morning from 60 minutes to this
morning 80minutes and of course I am doing them 7 days a week.
Mum saw the
specialist about her hip replacement yesterday she is now on the
waiting list for the surgery the doctor said the wait should be
around 9 months which is what both her and I thought it would be.
She also said when he was examining her that he hurt her a lot she
was nearly in tears as was my sister Sue who took her to the
hospital, Sandra was unable to go with her due to the time of the
appointment it was in the afternoon and Sandra had her daughter she
had to get from school.
There is a
plan to pay people to adopt children the reports are that people
could be paid up to $35,000 per year now this is new for Australia
but it is something that has been around in other counties for a
while well that is what they said on the news.
Well now I
am going to post this rambling post this morning at long last.
I guess that the people not affected by Debbie can get tired of the news on her, and those who need to know prolly have no power to hear it.
ReplyDeleteHad to look up Webster Pack. Got it.
A lot of times exams involve painful "groping" of the area. I had a neck goiter once and the specialist didn't know how close he came to fitting through a very narrow window in the exam room.
Yeah mum was in so much pain Tuesday night because of the appointment but accepted it had to happen to be examine the doctor needs to know what he is dealing with
DeleteI love that you get started on a blog post and then get distracted, sometimes not getting back to it til the next day because that is so me!
ReplyDeleteNice to know I am not the only one who does that
DeleteA friend of mine had her hip operation today, this afternoon to be exact, she is in private health so didn't have to wait.
ReplyDeleteHope your mum can get in before the 9 months as that's a fair time to have to wait if she is in lots of pain.
The cyclone - no one has lost their lives, so that's good news on a devastating subject.
Mum expected to wait up to a year for the operation being a public patient that has to be expected, she is in a great deal of pain as the bones are bone on bone but as mum said the time will go past at the usual speed and she is taking it one day at a time
DeleteIt's like that here too...whenever some major weather event happens, the news takes over the regular programs.
ReplyDeleteNine months is a long time to have to wait when a person is in pain. That's too bad that it takes so long.
I know happens whenever there is a major event all you get is the same reports over and over about it. Yes nine months is a long time but when you don't have private health cover and go through the public system it has to be expected, at least it will not cost her anything money wise
Delete9months? That's awful. Your poor Mom. Then when she gets it, she'll have the recoup time. I wish her allthe best.
ReplyDeleteThe news does that here too. You can watch it for one hour and get everything you need. Even an hour is stretching it.
I looked up your area and the cyclone area. Glad you are all safe.
Thank you yes 9 months is a long wait but we expected it to be that long. I think most countries repeat big news events over and over till people are fed up
