Mornin' all

So far this morning, I've:

• taken my morning pills
• checked the forum
• done the watering
• run the daily virus scan
• done the admin on the caring spreadsheet
• cared for my carer for almost an hour

I'm making my first prediction of the day, at 6.41am, that my carer will come up with yet another excuse not to cook lunch today and I'm predicting, at 6.42am, it'll be because it's "too hot" again, so my third prediction of the morning at 6.44am is that I'll be making all of his meals and going without yet again.  I'm gonna have breakfast again, but, like yesterday, that could be my only meal again.

I'm on track for going over 85 hours of caring this week and my fourth prediction of the day, at 6.46am, is that my carer won't even manage 3 hours of care for the week instead of the 35 hours that he's supposed to provide.

He uses the money he gets for being my carer for things like podcasts and music and subscriptions, and TV programmes and films that he falls asleep while he watches and things like that yet I'm expected to spend over ¾ of my money on electricity and food that only he eats (and usually wastes each week).  He says he makes all my meals and drinks for me, but I'm usually lucky to get 3 lunches out of him a week and the only drinks he makes for me are the bottles of squash so that I can take my pills.  He hasn't made me a hot drink for literally years but expects me to make them for him several times a day.

I'm gonna go and make my breakfast now so that I can concentrate on caring for my carer in the knowledge that I will have one solid meal in my belly, the same as yesterday.
