3 Too Many

No fantastic sleep pattern to report but did manage to get in a solid spell of 2 hours before waking. Very humid morning and get busy mucking around the house. Keep myself busy specing up a laptop that someone has ordered from me. Not to bad a unit of I say so myself. Decide to get ready for the day even though it is only 7 am and a Sunday! Tried the going back to sleep thing to buy no joy.

Joh calls and we’d have a good but quick catch up. Hope the throat feels better really soon. Bet it’s not nice with the Aussie heat. Pete Stills then arrives as a surprise with a couple of little gifts for Sue and I. Thank you so much Pete they will go down a treat I’m sure. Also you’ll definitely be over to assist in an official capacity anyway.  Load up the car and head off to see Dad and give him his Xmas gifts as he joins the ship again on Monday and the we will miss him otherwise. This has to be the highlight of the day actually as it has been so long since I’ve really seen Dad smile like he did. And he was visibly moved. It also made me feel really good – . In a warm fuzzy way that is sicko! Definitely rates as a highlight of my year.

Had an interesting discussion about my new magic med, and yet another confirmation of how much change the need has bright, which its fantastic to hear. But also it is still scaring me as to just how low I really had got. Oh well. Guess what -, I’m back! Insert evil laugh here Bloody pain is riding at a new high level today as well. Grit teeth and bear it, as much as I can. Though it is 2:30 am and I can hardly move, trying to hold down extreme tum pain so burning up to (lovely side effect of the steroids). So much to hate in these bloody mess they have me on. Anyway, not going to focus on the down. I have one thing that needs to happen this year -I have to and are definitely planning on it, the most awesome Christmas. And we know why!

Catch up with Alex, Vicki and the kids for lunch and a general chat. Nice. Haven’t seen you all for a fair while.  Quiet evening. Just dinner, then try to get the blog done. This is really starting to get me angry. Not sure what make you want to rollout such a change at Xmas. Anyway, it’s beyond my control. Otherwise, that is about the sum total of my Sunday. Hope you’ve all had a lovely Sunday and a bit more exciting than mine.

Kia Kaha.
