Positions

This morning I give thanks for the sight of blue sky and sound of birdsong through my bedroom window...

that I've made my tea and had my bun and can doze awhile again

that there's no one around who might think it's funny to play an April Fool's prank on me!

for painstakingly re-mastering the art of lying on my side (literal use of the adverbial here)

for finding a more comfortable way to use some of the kit I've come home from hospital with and for coming up with ideas for further improvements...I'm going to have a go at making some accessories when I'm better and/or seeing if there are any consultancy design positions going. Clearly the people who produce a lot of the various stoma and catheter stuff have no real idea what it's like to actually live with it night and day...or else they do realise and dismiss our sensibilities as of little consequence.

for pause, rewind and fast forward on TV...in my opinion it was only half invented til those came along and I missed them so much while I was 'inside'!

Thanks too to Laura who came up to visit and help even though her car, and town, is out of diesel!

Finally apologies for tardiness regarding emails and so on. It's pretty awesome how well I'm doing but I have had a lot done to me and do need time to mend!

  1. Angel managed to stay awake long enough to see the last three quarters of the film. Found it quite sad, but not an unusual don't understand it so kill it mentality. Just hope they never find life on other planets.
    Give thanks that you have the facility to stop and rewind your programmes, if you doze off there it is, all over again! Have you caught any of the live Andy Murray tennis today?
