Klutz or numptie lol

Well am having to use size 14 font now as size 12 is appearing as size 8 and size 10 wants to be about size 24 <sigh> Methinks the font sizes on this blog are trying to give me a message...LOSE WEIGHT AGAIN lol...It will happen but not until i am able to take up exercising again...I can't even do swimming just now which i had thought i could start again despite the council cutbacks...We do actually have umpteen swimming pools in the city it's just finding one that is open at a time i can go there and one that isn't full of people who aren't into swimming length after length like me.

Reason i can't go swimming is that despite now having more movement back in the capputed shoulder i erm fell again...To be exact our stairwell carpet is rather worn...That is really an understatement it's downright dangerously full of holes...Well i caught my toes in one said holes last wed night and went thunk banging the already damaged shoulder on the edge of one of the steps with a vengance...G came rushing down to see if i was alright and to help me...One of the neighbours came in just as i was attempting to get up...Now i thought i was fine and on thurs i felt ok...Winded to start with and just a bit stiff on the thurs...Big error on fri teatime as i drove to sainsburys...Fridge was empty and cupboards looking barren so i needed to buy supplies...As the crow flies sainsburys would be around 5 mins walk but the railway line gets in the way...Boy did i ache when i got back...My best friend called and asked if i would go to the cinema with her so i said yes despite film she wanted to see not being my thing...By the time we sat down to watch it i had shooting pains going up my neck and pins n needles down my arm...If i clenched my fist i had pain in my shoulder joint...The long winded medical name i can't pronounce let alone spell but you know the ball & socket joint that links the clavicle to the ulna or is it radius erm arm bone :o) It got worse over the course of sat and sun so on mon i phoned and managed to see my wonderful GP...Upshot is i have now damaged that part of my shoulder...Loads of internal swelling and stiffness <sigh> More painkillers or an injection was offered so i leapt at the injection...Marvellous as on mon night i actually managed to sleep longer than 45 mins for the first time since before christmas :o) GP told me to let my physio know and to also tell them he'd injected it...What with is anyones guess but am presuming some anti inflammatory...It still aches and i get sharp pains if i move it wrong but hey ho...I also felt incredibly sick all weekend like you do if you fall and bang your head...That according to the GP is from pain...So my movement is restricted again, i have to take it easy and physio will check it over next week when i see him and proceed from there...The stair carpet is getting hauled up and dumped in the street bins as soon as i am able and sod what anyone in the block says...It has been suggested by some friends that i need wrapped up in bubble wrap or cotton wool LOL...Am just glad it was me and not one of the boys...It could have been a lot lot lot worse...No-one cares about the state of the place and as am on the first floor then everyone of course is using that section of the stairs...Soon they can just put up with the wooden stairs themselves as i am not putting down more carpet...So i can type a little bit but it starts to ache a lot after about 4 lines...But it is keeping it moving and that is good, i can put up with some aches.

As you know K is coming up next week on the thurs...To be with M at the YAC agm and to look after the boys so i can go away for some peace and quite...Well M has decided he is going to stand to try and be elected for the vacant MSYP place next thurs...It won't be plain sailing as someone else is standing...Fingers crossed he does get voted in...Ok i will worry about him going away to weekend long meetings but it will be good for him i think...For someone who as yet as no qualifications through school and still has more difficulties than people perceive he is very passionate about people like him...From very young, teens, to older people with an ASD...He is able to overcome his social difficulties to try and make himself heard to try and make the public more aware of people like him and G...To make people realise that it's not special treatment as such that they need but allowances and understanding...Once someone knows it is not that much of a hardship to speak differently to them, to make people aware that yes they can do a job as long as certain things are in place...Not stuff that would cost money as such either...Mainly understanding, explaining things simply and clearly and to not treat them like they are thick or lepers of some kind.

Last night M didn't want to go to club so G took the bus...I couldn't have driven the 4-5 mile round trip anyway...Just after G left i phoned my best friend and she was pissed off...Her fella had decided he was not going to go with her and their young children to view this dog my friend had seen advertised...So i said i'd go with her instead...M was happy enough to be on his own...Well it's just as well i went with her as am a better satnav than his tomtom LOL...It was way out in the country and she had seen it advertised on freecycle...They were giving it away because although she is fine with children and other animals she did try to bully their other dog...So i ended up with a dog in the footwell trying to clamber over me on the way back...M won't be visiting them again <sigh> Mind you perhaps this well get him to be ok with dogs...My best friends 3 year old daughter is dog mad to the point where proper leads and collars had to be bought for her stuffed toy dogs...Although am not a dog lover in the sense that i would have a dog as a pet i will go out with her to take it on walks...It's cheaper than the gym LOL...Now am really aching so am off to see if a soak in the bath will help and attempt to wash my hair.

Fall down just one more time and the unavoidable conclusion could only be that you're attention seeking!  

Teasing aside, poor you.

Now get yourself to specsavers :O)
