Haven’t written a post in ages

It just goes to show how life travels on without any regard to anything else that you try to rememeber to do.

Having once being a fairly consistant blogger, on various mediums and platforms, the whole thing has now, pretty much, come to a grinding halt.

Such a shame.

Ouch

I really detest that really "odd" sensation that my sinuses do every so often.
There is a slight pressure build up that I can feel in behind my cheeks.
And then "pop"
Sore sinuses and a wet nose/top lip follows.
And the fear of a nose bleed, that never happens.

Holiday Photo's

A few hours of work still to go, but it just shows you how much a difference digital photography has made over film camera's. 1100+ sorted dogital photos' and 10+ video clips off the same equipment

What a day

What a miserable old day, and, i have to say that I am feeling as poor as the weather.

At least I have the motorbikes to keep me company - as long as I can stay awake.

So much for the general "get something useful done" plan.

What?

I'm trying work out who's sneezing more?
Me, or the Dog?

Wednesday

Doesn't a Bank Holiday upset the routine?
It's Wednesday already!

Well look at me ...

Well look at me.
I'm not the most cultural of people.
I like various pieces of art, without always being bright enough to understand it.
Yet, here I am, watching a Sky Arts piece about David Hockney, and really enjoying it.
I suppose it helps that the program is based around how he uses photography to make up some of his collages.
That said, some of the experts do come across as "pompous"

What the???

You can't have anything in this house.
I make myself a decent breakfast as I have some steroids to take,  and then I see poochy helping himself to my scrambled eggs.
Start again :0)

Will I

25 APRIL 2015, 19:03 Will I write a paper journal, when I really keep a digital one that is displayed prominently on various phones and tablets?

Kind of Pointless ....

We have all the "benefits" digital TV is supposed to give me, more channels and more choice.

We have iPlayer and Netfix.

And I am still watching something I have seen before???

I could have cried

I could have cried.
I was looking for something else, as you do,  when I noticed the folder that held my old pictures split apart at the bottom.
If that wasn't bad enough, but quite a few of the pictures had slid out and now lay,  crushed,  under the weight of the pile on top of them.
Time has crushed a small part of my personal creative history (not that me and creativity have a standing aqantance).
Ripped corners, and multiple creases across noses and eyes.
All that could be said was "it could have been worse!"

Am trying to work out why the one dimensional politics of UKIP really irritates me.
Perhaps it's that concept of "if we leave Europe the world will be a better place"
Really?

I know you shouldn't laugh, but how can you NOT smile when you heard on the local news that the police have advised drivers to beware of a loose EMU!

What a day ....

What a day its been today.

Woke up is shock, and in a sweat after vaguely remembering some vague, frightening, fight or flight nightmare (the second one in several days)

Then I have spent the day scurrying around, with sore eyes and a thick head.

And, when I get home it just feels like I have been suffering from that subtle mixture of uncoordinated hands and fat fingers

. A smile though, after being "ambushed" by a flying fur ball who was happy to see me. Drooly ball time .....

 

What is happening?

Where has the year gone?
April is past half way through and Easter has already come and gone.
Summer is already on the horizon,and then it is only a short time before we head back to Christmas..
when you feel as old as I do at the moment, time doesn't just run fast.
It hurtles!

Kind of scared

15 APRIL 2015, 06:00 I hate waking up after a strange dream, one of those you remember being upsetting, unsettling, frightening. Yet you know something isn't right. There has been a chase. There has been a search. Yet you can remember nothing but a vague, nagging memory

Yet another unwanted phone call

Phone Rings --- " Mr Smith?",

"Yep!".

"Do you want your Dyson servicing?"

"NOT INTERESTED!!"

Phone firmly replaced back into its cradle/charger

What the hell...?

Its Grand Prix (and MotoGP, and Superbikes) Sunday and, as race was on early, I watched it from the warmth of the duvet. Although the result was decent, I am , once again, left shaking my head at what I have just seen. How the hell does Dougal Dog sleep the way he does? I have seen earphone cords come put, of bags with less knots in!!

It's Saturday

Once again, I'm at work on a Saturday.
I know I'm lucky to be employed.
But I still can't help thinking of all the other things I could be doing?
Never mind,  comfort break over and upwards and onwards to the next Customer

Arrrggghhhh - part 512

You just can't have 5 minutes safety from the internet Pigs. Literally 1 minutes gap between changing my password and getting another warning from Yahoo that it has detected "unusual activity", and have I tried to login from a device in Romania!!

Robin Hood

How can any archer not like having to sit, being "forced" to watch an Investigation into Robin Hood.

 Life is harsh -Not!!

Day Off

Having barely got used to being back at work, I am , once again, on a day off.

But are things really any different - you can bet your life their not.

As I once again sit in the kitchen, I look out on another late winter/early spring morning, the the sun burning oranges, reds and pinks into a wispy, cloudy sky. The pretty images occasionally "enhanced" by a cloud of something or other rising form the steel works just out of my view.

And, of course, the mad hound still keeps trying to sneak out of the door with some jumper, or tee shirt, clasped firmly in his jaws.

So time to sit peacefully "waking up" slowly before heading out on a required shopping trip and back to the hum drum of life we all have to enact.

Feeling pretty nauseous

Not a nice thing to talk about around dinner, but there you are.

Having only had a "Coffee" breakfast, it came as no real surprise that I was pretty hungry. But that also can with the periodic IBS reminders - stomach cramps etc.

Well, seeing as both are as uncomfortable as each other, "filling my face" seemed a fair compromise.

I guess I should have known better..

Once again, I play

Once again, as you can guess from the title, that I am playing with posting options again.

This time, I am probably, yet vainly hoping that, if I can post this via email, I may well have found an easier way of posting bigger, none Twitter, type messages.

I suspect that anything shorter than this would be a kind of pointless attempt.

Will it work?

I won't bore you with the result

My little garden

Originally posted on Rosie Writes...:

Morning all.

Well, the weather is a disappointment today, after the lovely warm and bright day we had yesterday. I was going to write about my therapy session a week ago, but I’ve decided to show you my garden instead.

Tinker time.. Have been going through my website list to see what still works and I re-found Composer (http://composer.io/). Just checking to see if it still works. Will find out shortly ;0)

now this doesn't happen very often, but it just goes to show how completely technology runs our lives.
Myself and the "Boss" texted each other around teatime yesterday.
Not knowing that each of us had done so, we didn't realise anything was amiss till this morning.
My text to Cathy didn't arrive until 11 last night, and her's to me, arrived at 6 this morning.

Am thinking "Go have a shave you lazy so-and-so", yet the same brain is also saying " nope, Star Trek's on"

Annoyed doesn't really cover it

God, I really hate Pavlovian body responses.
Having spent most of the night trying to sleep in an area of bed no bigger than a small flannel (Dougal, having spent most of the night either barking at the Fireworks, and then, barking at the stranger that appeared at the door a short time later - or Laura as most of us know her)
Having once again, then managed to sort of get back to sleep, my mind then convinced me that there was aloud wrapping, crashing, knockingat the front door.
I shot out of bed, all but ran down the stairs, and unlocked the door to find NOTHING!!
The drive was empty, as was the street.
Can I now get back to sleep, of course I can't.
TV and iPlayer now pressed into service, with, no doubt a session of nodding off on the back room settee.
Thanks New Year, what a start.
