Been a strange fortnight, fell in my hall and bruised my ribs...

Too serious, need a good laugh...but it would hurt so🤣 Fell in the hall...do-gooding big bags clothes to the scout jumble..left a 40L bag in the hall, handle not tucked away...bad move, foot in the handle tripped nearly knocked myself out on the airing cupboard door, saved by an old wicket log basket full of old barbies (not soft!!) ...hurt knee & ribs. Made an awful ooouuff sound...

Tribulations of a clear out  ...  beginning..then postponed.

Not the best 2 weeks but better just about now...strange reappraisal of the endless *stuff i havnt thrown out over the years*...seemed an endless task...then with poorly rib pain, an impossible task...now..think its ok if organised.

Big sis went cycling...75 and not on a cycle for years and fell off...now bad hip and shins... she needa to winterise her caravan...would help but 2 crocks arent exactly a good combination.

Als also a pain ...awful ordeal all teeth out...but wont wear the dentures & looks 110...

Feels good to not need the towel robe belt tied to a cottage chair end of bed to haul myself in & out of bed. Or turn..or move.

Feeling fit is so much better

Gooseh Fair managed to walk round.

3.14ish 14 Sept 2026

In my bedroom...On my phone while i'm watchin a youtube

Brain control...outrage...found a plastuc carrier bag Caught it, wasnt sure...threw it in a tub in the bathroom..

Yep caught it! And again & out of the window...

How cool is that

There's probably a nest, a colony of them...

Der...

Breathing Space ...  didnt kill it...just threw it (15m to the ground...its a spider kk possible Bird Food...not my problem)

Now it was my mums 106th Bday 13th...& maybe a hark back...talking ill of to Trotski Al ...but this morning i 'clocked' an object that reminded me of dad...& its definitely more his style.. test your nerve & reflexes..nothing to be scared of   ..more frightened of u ...

& thinking on..my old mate Colin wd be impressed...we liked bugs & creepies as kids...so many pinned to boards in showcasea in Wolly Hall...and real ones in the park & the stream😃  & Colin was my buddy .. and he knew my mum when we were kids...and dad...(theres a soz there on 2 counts .  C and another) but say no more...childhood ...such a snowball globe of interacting thoughts and reminiscences...(& big sis didnt take on the stoical teaching)...

All that at 3.15am...

Was a bit out of order with this pic...but prob purloined kk....thats where the spider should be...not a house spider...why's a house spider named a house spider??

.

Its now Easter 2026 ....& I've decided Clutterbug is a good way to describe me ...& i'm not going to achieve the 3,4 or 5 bedroom house with garden.

More info later

Just so the suffering kids know...

Would someone like to tell Mr Putin
& the idiots 'ruling' in the old Levant…
Of my absolute resentment of their foothold on this earth …
And my sentiment, that their present situation should be somewhere out in space
Preferrably beyond the iss space-station…
Without the benefit of any life preserving technological support system.
…Failing that the antartic might suffice.
But the Penguins …would they be safe?

Craziness of the last year

Just how crazy can things get with the internet - the rollercoaster of trying to set up some resources, a small micro business with online info and local tourism info that reflects something of the specification for teaching and tuition - is just about driving me nuts and all because btyahoo email in their quest to update or some such reason - probably that yahoo has been bought out is that ten emails are now adrift all associated with different social media sites, with only one main account and the others sub accounts and bt cant keep the passwords open to run either outlook express to collect what are my own email sets of info. I apparently can pay to go premium but only one sub account is allowed on each account - and who wants to carry on if they cant respect the fact they are my emails and allow me to download the info? Something similar happened with namesco a web hosting co, and then with vistaprint and so it goes on - the android os now has to cope with the ipad equivalent and their apps are not designed to fit android smartphones anymore and the customers get left with the curved ball and the hours of work to keep the data and info collected over years - its ok to believe the internet is just for companies who make money but the ordinary person is out there paying the broadband at ridiculous prices and financing half of the cost ! whinge over - its a lovely sunshiny day time to go find some green space.
