Today is a slow start. Last night I made the mistake of looking at blogs by others, similar to mine. As is the norm with me, they all seem better than anything I could come up with. I always put myself at the bottom of any hierarchy. I’ve got to keep reminding myself, this is for me, its my record. If nobody wants to read it..que sera. I am starting from scratch.
Contemplating the day ahead
Now then, what shall I do today 🤔🤔🤔🤔… Its 9.30am. I’ve checked in with my Sister, and she’s informed me my mother’s had an okay night (mum has terminal cancer) so that’s a relief. Visiting either Mum or Dad (who also has terminal cancer) would be the compassionate thing to do, but I’m going to allow myself to do other things 🤔🤔🤔….
Its now 2.30pm. I’m still in bedtime slob attire and feel I need some fresh air. I’m not wholly disappointed with the day so far. I’ve caught up with Mums condition and it seems she’s had a comfortable night. I’ve had a catch up with my ex-wife about upcoming birthdays and events. That’s cost me £110. Most satisfying has been the discovery of ‘how to set up an additional blog type page’. Its a page for random thoughts, observations and discoveries. You could say its a repository for all of those cranial processes that stop me doing anything physically productive. Often random thoughts. Gemini helps me to disappear down a rabbit hole of questions and answers without coming up with anything to improve my life. However, I have managed to instruct my ‘thoughts’ posts to be excluded from my main blog page. Victory!
Time to make myself respectable, go shopping and prepare myself for this evenings pool sesh in the local pub. Its a 20 year weekly tradition, only broken when Bro goes on holiday. My existence is so mundane breaks are rarely down to me because I never go on holiday😪
I’ll wave the opportunity to give an evening update. I’ll be half cut and, in keeping with the tradition, I’ll return home and feed myself with a bag of Maltesers.
Lets hope tomorrow will bare more exciting fruit!
