And here I am again

 After not updating anything for months I’m now here with another update in less than a month. It’s not for good reasons.

DP went back to work after his eye operation and we had a week of peace and quiet while he was in Copenhagen. He was then supposed to have a couple more weeks away…which didn’t upset me. Instead his eye operation failed and he needed the operation redone in an emergency again. He’s been less clingy and pathetic this time but it’s not fun having him around all the time being rude, grumpy and self absorbed!

DD had to cancel two hospital appointments for tests…cardiology and an MRI for their liver. They had a doctors appointment and the exhaustion of getting downstairs was so intense they were vomiting and had to go into the appointment clutching a mixing bowl. They had to be realistic and accept getting to the appointments was not sensible and they are so exhausted and in so much pain they really don’t care. It’s a shame they weren’t getting their symptoms investigated years ago when it might have made a difference…it’s too late now. Life would be easier for them if they were sleeping most of the day which was how previous flares have gone. This time the pain is so aggressive they struggle to get any sleep at all.  All of which makes their life even more unbearable.

In wider news Trump has decided bombing Iran is a good idea…he doesn’t appear to have any end game in mind…hardly a surprise given his lack of intelligence, dementia, malignant narcissism, fragile ego etc.Tehran is already having poisonous rain because of the massive bombing of oil facilities never mind the deaths, including a girls school which was bombed twice! The effects are not going to be good and given how insane and psychopathic Trump and his acolytes are they may well decide to drop a nuclear bomb. Israel is obviously very happy with this state of affairs…I have read a number of dystopian novels with Israel nuking the Dome of the Rock…I may actually get to see that happen…Israel is a seriously evil state.

DD has been advocating for a while to get print copies of important books incase online books…which lots of mine are…start getting amended or deleted. DS1 has accumulated a massive stack of DVDs so he can still access the films he likes as so many are being deleted from streaming services. Digital book burning was never on my list of events I anticipated but again it’s something I may get to live through. We have also got a few survival bits and pieces like a camping stove and I’ve stocked up on batteries. We won’t be able to manage for more than few days if the electricity goes off permanently but we can cope for a couple of days. I can see 2026 is going to be a busy year!
