Tell Us About Your Day

Annie you sound like me, I am getting four hours sleep at the most lately, often less.

It's still pitch back out when I get up...

Annie, I know should be getting more sleep but no matter what i have done it just doesn't happen. maybe it's time to see a sleep specialist. Oh, and by the way, you are not old....

I got up today at 11am. I had a wonderful night's sleep and felt fully rested. I just cannot function without sleep. Plus, sleep protects my eyes from damage.

I love being asleep: as strange as that sounds.

My godson has cancer since Nov 2020. He supposed to have transplant in December. I have been trying to call him, text him all day. I am so worried right now.

My thoughts are with you. I hope things are going well. With the current issues many operations have beeen delayed here.

Well I thought I heard gunshots last night... There was a rapid bang bang bang outside and then the dog went crazy.
I calmed him down and when I looked outside there was nothing except a young scooter rider who was brushing himself down and looking around in a bit of confusion.

Soon his mates turned up and after much milling about picking up of small objects from the road and discussions they all left..

This morning we looked at the camera images and they show that the young man went past our front door like a rocket. there is a small kink in the road at the corner which he missed completly he hit the kerb went somersaulting across the road and landed outside the house opposite where he picked up the scooter from its landing place which is when I saw him .

He is lucky to be alive, he had no helmet , no protective clothing not even a big coat just jeans and a sweater.
I wonder if he will even realise how close to death he was, if a car had been coming, if he had hit his head on either kerb, been 6 inches to the right and hit the tree or flown a bit further and hit the neighbours garden wall it would have been game over... idiot.

Best wishes, Annie. 

When my boys turned 16 they each got a motor scooter. They were told they had to wear leather jacket and full face helmet always . They were told if they messed about didnt wear helmets or drove with a beer inside them I would take the bike to the crusher and make them push the button.

The eldest is nearly 40 they younger 37 both have unblemished driving licenses. I hope I had a little bit to do with that . Nowadays discipline seems to be a dirty word.

Sounds a great way to relax into the weekend

I have drunk my caffetterie coffee and washed a load of laundry. I have also been browsing online.

Enjoy your Saturday, everyone!

I remember in my early 20's selling my tropical fish tank. The woman had offered me an extra £5 to deliver it. When I got there, I found out it was for her son. He was my age and sat in his wheelchair, with paralysed legs from a motorbike accident. He was my age.

All these years later, he will still be in a wheelchair.

I had forgotten about him.
