3 Too Many

” I’m not afraid of storms for I’m learning how to sail my ship.” — Louisa May Alcott

Pain back – well yes pain is back in my back (pun intended).  Restless sleep as just can’t get comfortable with my back hurting like it does.  Get up and take good pain killers then wait what seems forever for them to kick in.  Fall asleep on the Lazy Boy for a bit until I get restless on there.  Head back to bed then.  Manage to doze the rest of the night.  Up at 6:30 and into the day – crikey a week down already.  Time is flying by at the moment.  Get ready to face the day and pack the boys off to school. 

Sue and I hit the road for work.  Enjoy the stroll into the office, as an OK morning. Nice to be back in the office again.  Have a good morning at work. Head around to Re:Start at lunch time – another cruise boat is obviously in as tourists everywhere.  Good to see, but I wish they would remember that there are locals still here an people trying to get places so walking 4-5 wide on a munted footpath forcing people to walk on the road is not good.  Anyhow – moan over with.  Get back in time for Sue to collect me, and head for home.  Starting to feel rather odd – latest thing is I get odd almost lightheaded feeling in my head.  Usually followed by small tremor bouts in legs and arms.  Probably the MoFo’s have a little shuffle round.  Long as they don’t do a to big a shuffle and touch something that causes a bigger tremor or worse. Stop by the chemist to pick up more drugs and repeats – on 38 pills a day now – heading in the wrong way.  And that is only the basic minimum.  If I have a lot of pain then the total can top nearly 50!  Wonder what would happen if I didn’t take any for a day or 2?  HHmm – I don’t think I’ll try it but are guessing it would be a ticket to hospital.

Get home and Mum stops by to see how I/we are going.  Have a coffee and a chat, then she heads off.  Boys then arrive home and in full rush mode as Lachie has indoor footy at 4pm.  Go and watch the game – they win 17-2  so a good result.  Head home then and the boys get showered and changed as we are heading to Melissa and Robs for a BBQ tonight (hence no blog posted last night).  Head over to their place and have a great night chatting, relaxing and just enjoying a generally social evening.  Thanks so much for the good time guys.   Jake comes home with us to’ stay the night as Jacob and him want to go to the skate park in the morning.

Get home about 11pm.  Get the kids off to bed, and do M&D time.  Think about the blog but honestly not in the right frame of mind, and to bloody worn out really to type anything sensible, so flag it.  “Watch” in on the SBW Boxing fight via live streaming on one of the News sites.  What a bloody have the whole fight was.  Need a rematch to prove that Botha was the better fighter.  But good for SBW to get taken to the limit.  Still don’t think there is a future for him in it really – but thats MHO, what would I know.   Hope all have survived the week well and had an enjoyable Friday.  Have a fantastic weekend – looks like the weather over NZ is going to ensure that most have perfect days.  Trust it is good for you where ever you are reading this.  Take care, keep having fun.

Kia Kaha.
