The week that was No:30


Well I was up at 8am had to get Tasha to come dress me, later she came and got my breakfast.

Leo woke up around 9.30am and Kathy & her girls arrived at 10am and drove me to see Dad.

At 11am I medicated Leo and gave him the wrong medication and he has been asleep on & off all afternoon.

Monday I did bugga all, went and waited at Tasha's while she went out.

I was still in bed when Natasha arrived on Tuesday morning. She wanted to know if I could go and sit at her house while she drove Leo to school as she still have workmen there, well one man painting was there.

Leo not here for the night as Tasha couldn't pick him up from school.

Wednesday saw me having a bath at 7am followed by a day at home blogging, watching tv and writing a letter or two.

Thursday now and I woke up coughing this morning, had to get Tasha to help dress me.

I lent as in gave Tasha money for medication for Blain $47 and another $45 for smokes.

Tasha thought the workmen were done and dusted but then they found some water damage I n a bedroom so may be fixing that.

Tasha picked up Leo early from school, he is here for the night.

Tasha told me that she can only drop me at the square tomorrow, and Jess said she can't meet me so I am not going to Charlie tomorrow. I really need her help.

I sent Jessica a Facebook and after some to and fro she decided she would meet me as usual.

This was after I cancelled with mum, so not going to tell mum about the change.

Tasha came down and help me dress after I had a bath, I didn't wear any make up just lippy.

I didn't get a nap because mum rang and by the time I got off the phone it was too late.

I sent Michael a text for his birthday, which was yesterday and I forgot.

It is now Saturday and I had a horrible nights sleep last night. I slept for an hour at a time, for maybe 5hrs max.

I was awake at 1.32am trying to settle, I came out to the lounge room and had a biscuit and a small drink before going back to bed.

Managed to have a 2.5hr nap this morning and a smoke at lunch I had something else.

This afternoon I was ok more or less but I will be early to bed again. I hope I have a better nights sleep.

Jessica arrived around 5.30pm to get Leo, he was good and not medicated all day.

The week that was No:: 29


Hello world, here I am a starting another post about my life during the week.

Slept in till 9am only woke once last night so a much better night

When mum rang she said that Dave, Leigh and the girls asked her to go to Port Macquarie with them tomorrow, she said yes.

After mum rang Dave rang and asked if I would like to go to Port with them tomorrow, I said yes. So big day out tomorrow.

I will have to set alarm for 4am to wake Tasha as she wants to be up that early for some strange reason and 5.30am for me to get up as Dave will be here at 6.15am.

Tim said he will give me money for tomorrow.

I had no problem getting up when both alarms went off. I was up and dressed when Dave & Leigh arrived.

I slept part of the drive to Port Macquarie, we had breakfast at Pancake Place before walking to find a cheap shop.

Although I didn't walk far before Dave decided to push me on the walker. It made it so much easier for me.

I slept most of the way home.

Jess & Leo didn't go to visit Jay as Jay cancelled.

I got home by 4pm but mum didn't ring as we spent all day together.

Tuesday has been a quite day here, told Tim all about yesterday.

Had Tasha pick up some treatment for thrush for me. I remember the days when you had to see a Dr be examined before you could get a script. Now you just go to the chemist buy a pill and take it and you're usually right.

My back has been painful all day.

Wednesday has been an ok day, Mum went to Paddy's market with Dave & Leigh and their girls. However, I was unable to go as Dave thought it was too far for me manage. I understand but still I was disappointed.

I had Leo & Daemon while Jess & Kelli went clothes shopping. While they where here Kathy and her girls turned up and both the girls had fun playing the boys. Blain stayed home at Cessnock on his own.

Mum rang me at 5.10pm after she got home.
Thursday was a quite day spent at home doing nothing

Friday was Jeannie's birthday she is 51, saw her at the square and gave her a present.

Leo spent last night with Kelli & family so just me and Jess this morning.

Dawson is unwell so not going to work.

I was so tired that I went back to bed when I got home.

Tasha's bathroom is mostly done.

Saturday I was up at 8am and dressed, Jess & Leo here before I was up.

I forgot that Leo was staying the night till I was having a smoke this afternoon. When I mentioned it to Tim he flipped out, started yelling and throwing things.

Saying I NEVER tell him stuff, he went on about stuff that happened a year or more ago.

Leo told him it was a year ago forget it and move on.

When I went to bed he didn't want to kiss me or hug me. Although after I was in bed he came in and gave me a kiss.

I had of course said I was sorry and when I asked what I could do to help make things better he said to say sorry and I said I already said sorry about 7 times already.
So now it is Sunday and time to post
