YAWN YAWN WAKEY WAKEY PART 2....... 2019

@Upsydaisy Mrs Shiney says I drive her mad!

I have been driving for almost 60 years, have an Advanced Motorist certificate and a PSV licence (it's still valid under that title although they have changed the name).

I actually have a note on my medical records that my normal sleep period (about two hours) is not insomnia and that it is natural for me and doesn't affect my physical or mental ability. I have no trouble working 24 hours if necessary and, at one time, worked three days with just the occasional rest and meal break when I was in the Merchant Navy and passed fit to do so by the ship's doctor.

The only time I feel tired is when I'm not well.

 

Aloha everyone,

No problem! My rates of interest aren't too high I need to be able not to sleep as I spend a lot of time counting my money.

Sunny here and an extremely busy day. I also have to sort out something for Barry. He went to the dentist a month ago and they charged him for his check-up. He's on full benefits (badly disabled since birth) and registered with the new dentist last year. He showed them his certificate when he had a check up last year and so just had to sign their form. This time he didn't bother to take his certificate as he had already registered it but they said he has to bring it in each time so had to pay for the treatment (£27.20 ) and they gave him a form for claiming the money back from the Benefits people.

So I filled in the four page form. It was returned to Barry together with another 18 page form for him to complete so I had to go into town to get it from him. I read it through, spent twenty minutes on the phone with a very helpful girl (is that a sexist term?) and we came to the conclusion that the form didn't need completing - but I have to do an accompanying note and get Barry to sign it.

So, back into town for that but I shall combine that with a haircut, shopping and a meeting with the Charities Commission inspector (another long story ) and back in time for guests for lunch. I don't go into town before 8.30 as the rush hour traffic is too horrendous before then.

Keep well and have a great day

Aloha!

 

Aloha everyone,

I was too busy to look in yesterday and have just recently come in from a rainy garden.

Keep well and have a great day

Aloha!

 

Aloha everyone,

A lovely sunny morning.

I had to work outside in the rain yesterday but didn't get a chance to mow the wild area. We whacked down the knee high plants and grasses, after the seeds had set and dropped on the flowers, and then filled a ton bag with the debris. We don't put it on the compost because of all the wild grass seeds. I hope to mow the 3,000sq ft area today if it dries out enough. The mower can cope with the wet grass but I can't lift the box off the mower if the cuttings are wet.

I'll also be prepping food for tomorrow's guests.

Keep well and have a great day

Aloha!
