Sunday 3 March Ramble
March 4, 2013 — Headless“If you are going through hell, keep going.” – Winston Churchill
Welcome to another sleepless Sunday – well for me it was a nasty broken sleep. At least I was able to head off and get help and importantly At least it didn’t happen in the middle of the night which would’ve made it more scary. So clock on another 4 hours sleep for last night to the weekly total and I think once now manned about 20 hours grand total. No wonder it feel like a bloody zombie! Oh well this is how it is and shall be, then so be it. I’ve had to learn to give and take a bit with this illness so some sleep is really nothing.
Wake about 8 am and get meds, breakfast, etc. Then get ready for the day. Bloody Wilson is giving me grief today. It is like my arm/hand is paralysed. The brain keeps telling me that I am holding something in it, so I will go to let it go or put it down but there is nothing there. Just my brain playing tricks on me. Bloody tricky tumors, very clever though. Still for the cleverness of it it doesn’t make it any easier to try to shower or shave our dry yourself as you can’t hold things like soap or towels, etc. Enough moaning already. Full on footy day for the boys today. ) first up at 10am so down for his 2 hours of Dad calls for a quick chat then we head off. Jacob has a good practice, well i was told he did. Fridge and Nutty take me over to the vicarage for a coffee. Thanks guys – had a great morning. Collect Jacob and a mate of his Josh.then head for home and lunch. Out the door then for Lachlans turn. D drop n him of then head to shopping mall to get some bits. Get back and are teweold that Lachlan has had a brilliant practice and given it all. He even looks like he has, and judging by how fast he’s gone down tonight, he had. Good lad, he promised to try his hardest and has delivered. Head for home. Sue heads out for a walk with Wendy. Lachlan and I get dinner on. Sandra stops by to collect Josh as well, has a catch up then heads off. Sue gets home and finishes making dinner. Yummy dinner but the highlight had to be the Apple pie that Aubrey baked for us on Saturday how many people have a landscape gardener that also doubles as a basket. Thanks for the pie Aubrey very very nice indeed. I do my best to not give in to the sleep monster. And keep my meds going in at the right time in at the right time as the head is hurting now to and I’m not thinking quite straight. Graeme calls and we have a good catch up. Cheers G. M&D time and bed. Bets taken on how many hours sleep tonight? Any takers? 3 hours total? Anyway hope you’ve all had a brilliant day, and fun weekend. Rest up as the week is nearly here. Take care all.
