Mornin' all

Well yesterday was a new record of caring for my carer by the time I went to bed last night 'cos I ended up caring for him for 14½ hours by the time I eventually crawled into bed which means I've only got 20½ hours left to care for him in the next 6 days to reach the minimum, but I reckon I'll have done it by the time I head to bed tomorrow.  

 

So far my carer has done bugger all to care for me, so he's gotta hit 35 hours in the next 6 days to reach the minimum, which is just under 6 hours a day, every day, which has never happened before since I came out of hospital so I very much doubt it'll happen this week.  At a real stretch I might get an hour a day if he cooks for us each day from Thursday to Sunday and 5 minutes today if he bags up the groceries, which is only 4 hours and 5 minutes for this week, instead of the 35 hours it should be.


I've already cared for my carer for a smidgen under an hour today and it's not even 6.30am yet!


Onto other things so that I can stop ranting.  The daily virus scan was clear again, I've gotta remember to charge up my FitBit when I've made breakfast, the groceries are due just after lunchtime, I've got a head/eye ache right now, the money was taken for the groceries at just gone midnight, I'm hoping to get some news up on my sites this morning, my carer has just said, very clearly in his sleep "you can try a white chocolate digestive if you like!" then went back to snoring again, I'm gonna take my morning pills in a sec... aksherly, I'd best do that now so that I don't forget - hold on please! OK, they're down the hatch now, but I've already forgotten one pill this week (yesterday's lunchtime pill 'cos of making my carers lunch), so I'm all set until lunchtime now, after I've made my squash that my carer didn't make overnight like he promised he would.


My carer has just woken up and promised (again) to make my squash for me when he comes out of the bathroom... if he does, it'll be the first couple of minutes of care this week and potentially all I get, other than possibly bagging up the groceries, today.


We shall see.


Time to charge up my FitBit now, before I go and make breakfast again.  We're having mince pies that are now a week old for lunch today, apparently.
