I was sorted within an hour. My effing useless GP practice is useless! I wouldn't be in this position if it wasn't for them. New meds were making my stomach bleed. A&E said GP MUST change meds ASAP. GP texted "This was dealt with this morning." It wasn't!Again, they are confused & my health pays.

I can't get out of it. Doesn't help that the bullying has started up again which is damaging my health more than before.

I'm tired. Tired of the hell that is my living situation. I'm tired of everything.

I ended up flicking it off the window frame. In shock at being woken up so quickly it couldn't get enough lift before it crashed onto the glass roof below which was wet from rain. That's how it died, leaving a streak of red from its undercarriage which I noticed.

If I haven't said it before I'll say it now. Stay young. Keep a portrait in your attic. Aging sucks.

I have never had any interest in #skateboarding 'til I found myself watching this chap while I waited for a paI & listening to classical music on headphones. This chap is rather graceful.

Kidney stones are trying to kill me. Morning call to return to the hospital and "nil-by-mouth" because "you have renal failure."

Back in the days when I found myself being evacuated from countries, it was always on a #BA plane; seeing the flag on the tail would calm everyone down & we knew we were safe. Now it's the RAF. I'd of liked the men in flying suits!
Can't remember the Evacuation from Cyprus.
