Mornin' all

How's things with you this morning?

I've taken my morning pills, started the daily virus scan and emailed a friend to suggest getting more security on their machine in case they've been hacked.  I've also cared for my carer for over an hour and I need to remember to charge my FitBit up so that it logs my sleep tonight.  

 

Apparently I yelled down to my carer at 10pm last night, even though my FitBit says I was asleep at 9.05pm so that just wouldn't have been possible, right?  He wouldn't accept facts from an app that can't lie though and apparently he's right and I'm lieing.

Gonna go for a wee then make my carers breakfast for him then charge my FitBit up I reckon.

 

Apparently my carer "didn't do the washing up, so there isn't a clean bowl, sorry" so looks like I'm doing the washing up first too which means I won't be able to have breakfast 'cos it won't be safe for me to stand up for long enough after doing the washing up and making my carer's breakfast.

 

My carer's just woken up and gone for a wee, so looks like I'm weeing outside again, but apparently that's a lie too <shrug>

 

Nope, I was wrong and I'm sorry - he's just come back into the living room while I was sorting out the labels for this post and said "all yours" so it looks like I can wee in the bathroom this morning, thankfully.

BFN.

Nite nite orl

My body is rapidly getting too tired to function, so I'm gonna have an early night tonight after all.

Nite nite orl and eye'll sea ewe in the morning.

That's my...

...last two pills of the day popped and something put on Olio... can someone remind me, after I've posted my goodnight post tonight, to check on the Olio site as soon as I log on tomorrow and keep checking it throughout the day pretty please?

TIA!

What's the difference between...

...empathic and empathetic please?

I know it sounds like a joke and you might be sat/stood/laid there, scratching your head, trying to work out where the humour is, but it's an honest, genuine question that I can't work out the answer to.

If you know the answer, could you explain it to this dumbo in the comments so that I can go back to it in future when I forget pretty please?

Thank you!

Today's (16th April 2022) lunch photo

We've unboxed and used our last new cooking device - a toasted sandwich maker.

I had toasted cheese sarnies and on the suggestion of a very good friend of mine, the chef spreaded the outside of the bread this time and it did work, but I think the bread needs to maybe be spreaded on both sides of both slices with more spread next time.  The poor chef was getting stressed out after the first slice of bread disintegrated in his hands so he just put a small amount of spread on the outside of both slices and the block of cheese gave him a tough time of things too.

I'm grateful that he didn't throw it through the window in a fit of frustration though and I'll definitely be having them again, but I wanna give it a go alone that time so that I can make a warm rapid meal in about 15 minutes, rather than getting more and more unsteady and unsafe on my feet.  We haven't done too badly without the oven for the last week or so really!

Here's today's lunch photo:

Today's (16th April 2022) breakfast photo

I got the amount of soya milk (I'm allergic to dairy) pretty much spot on this morning!

 

I've got 500g of red seedless grapes that are 3 days out of date, so I'm gonna have those for a snack this morning too.

 

Here's this morning's breakfast photo though:

Mornin' all

How are you all doing this morning?

I can already tell that today is gonna be another high hayfever day for me 'cos I'm snuffling and sneezing, my eyes are bloodshot and streaming and I've got a scratchy throat as well as it feeling like my head is full of cotton wool.

So far this morning I've been for 4 wee's, taken my morning pills, run the virus scan, made a hot drink and breakfast for my carer and I'm about to go and make my own.

My carer has cared for both of us for 155 minutes this week mainly by cooking three meals and doing the washing up once so there's no way he can hit the 35 hour minimum required to be paid as my carer, even if he does nothing but care for me (so no sleeping or pooing for example) until I head to bed tomorrow.

Apparently we're still having the toasted sarnies for lunch today so we'll be cracking out the sandwich toaster thingy and have to find a new home for the air fryer.  I'm guessing I won't be allowed anywhere near it when it's heated up 'cos it'll be too hot to be safe for me if I wobble and put my hands/arms out to stop myself.

I'm gonna go and make my breakfast now and put the photo up when I've put my laptop back on the table.

Nite nite orl

The side effects are finally starting to kick in, so I'm logging off for the night now.

Nite nite orl.

Just taken...

...my last two pills of the day, so just gotta wait for the side effects to kick in now then I can head to bed for the night.

I'll hopefully remember to post my usual goodnight post so that you can all breathe a sigh of relief for the night, but just in case I forget, I'll say goodnight to you all now and I'll see you all in the morning.

Cor lummy!

It wasn't the biggest lunch in the world, just enough for both of us, but it's predictably sent Steve to sleep pretty rapidly and I'm burping like a good 'un too... just woken Steve up with one lol
