Waffling away at random
Firstly I would like to know what the person who was searching for “tea bag smoking” was looking for.
Secondly after much consideration I have started a new blog. This one will remain for now my new on is a place for me to ramble away at will particularly given the many miriard of things going on in my life right now. You can find it here
Plugging an event
I am going to use my blog to plug this event.
Please don’t just write this event off because its a Christian event, please take a good look around the site if if you don’t live near by and if you do please go along.
As a lad in my church said “Christian aren’t weirdos who eat jam donuts!”
Confused!
I am on night shift tonight so I need to get my head down before I head into work.
I relised this morning that I was running low on some of my medication, at the required time for ordering prescriptions I rang my surgery, no reply. I rang again and again and again, still no reply.
By this point I was getting miffed at the apparent lack of ability of the receptionist to pick up the phone.
Then suddenly I twigged.
She can’t pick up the phone, she’s not there.
Its Saturday!
Treats and Plants II
I have had move the plants today lest the guinea pigs think they are part of the treats I bought them yesterday!
But in order to move the plants I had to move the sitting room round.
Treats and plants
Today I had a great day, I took a trip to a garden centre with some friends.
I spent a small fortune but I know the lads will be happy with the treats I bought them and Prince Harry was delighted with his new house, he hasn’t left it since I bought it, except for his grub.
I also bought my self a couple of “spider plants” I have love having plants in my house but I have a habit of killing them however, I have been reassured that they are very difficult to kill my only disapointment was that I never had a chance to go and play in the childrens play area it looked great fun.
90 percent chance………….
Two days ago I blogged about how it looks very likely that I will be going into hospital for surgery, so likely that they gave me a provisional date for my op there and then.
I have had time to get my head round it and reflect on the news, to be honest I am utterly delighted to be under going surgery. Its not the surgery its self I am looking forward too, I know its gunna hurt. A lot.
But, I know it offers me a 90 per cent chance of being pain free, a 90 percent chance of no longer being dependent on pain killers, a 90 percent chance of no longer having awful side effects from my pain killers, a 90 per cent chance of being able to dress myself without pain and stiffness, a 90 per cent chance of being able to join in with the church badminton nights, a 90 per cent chance of being able to move my arm fully and without pain and the bones grating, a 90 per cent chance of being able to allow Sparky to sit on my shoulder with out being in pain and so the 90 percent chance list goes on.
I was nervous waiting for the surgeon to come back with his decision not because he might say I needed surgery but because he might say its not an option. And I am more nervous that something might prevent it happening rather than it actually happening. I really hope that I am not setting myself up for a fall were I set my expectations for the surgery too high and I am left deeply disappointed when it goes wrong but, I know that undergoing the surgery is an opportunity to great to miss.
I know I am being offered something that carries with it a 90 percent chance of improving my quality of life
Surgery
You may or may not remember this post .
Well after several appointments, some of which have been documented in my blog it looks very likely that I am going to be going into hospital for surgery to have my acromyoclavicar joint removed which, I have been warned is very painful but it carries a 90 percent success rate.
I have had further x rays today on of which was incredibly painful and resulted in me swearing and having a few tears maybe it was intended as a bit of an endurance test, a kind of “this surgery going to be very painful so lets send you off to x ray to give you an idea of the pain to come” type apporoach.
If you want to see what they planning to do take a look at this its the
ARTHROSCOPIC ACROMIOCLAVICULAR JOINT EXCISION
sorry but I just copied and pasted that from the website and I have not idea how to make it smaller text
Snowy Angel
We have a dusting of snow overnight but rather than head over to the park to take some photos of the snowy weather because I have many, many “snowy photos” of my local park so instead I headed over to one of our local landmarks “The Angel of the North” better known around these parts as “The Gateshead Flasher”
Here’s some photos
