Woken up to another dull, grey day.
For some reason the view has changed to pages and I suspect this is putting me off somewhat.
I had some trouble yesterday with script for post becoming coloured wed page, and now I’m in print layout view.
I change to Web layout and return to the familiar endless white space.

My care worker did say he felt I had got something from doing the course.
I agreed and added I was learning every day,
Still.

I’ve spent a couple of hours looking at accommodation and travel to Holland, and am still undecided.

A week in Amsterdam, dodging the Charlie dealers, pickpockets, and traffic while sampling the goods is going to cost in the region of £500.
A full week in England on the gear costs me £70, no hassle at all.

I change my radio tuner to Blues but am not happy with the amount of singing so return to smooth jazz.
Slowly the Tinnitus eases down and becomes a steady high-pitched, almost constant whistle.

Father is due down in an hour or so.
Indeed, he phones as I write and informs me he will be down at 10.30.
Weather is not too good, but he adds that it is just right for putting plants out.

Will have to hoover and remove the green covering from the carpet.
The communal area of grass has just been cut and invariably everyone’s carpets become covered in grass clippings paddled in after each venture outside.

I added some extra features to the blog yesterday, nothing flash just a couple of extras which may provide extra interest and a chance for the potential reader to relax.

I must admit when I first began the site I looked at the huge range of extras and was tempted but have decided to keep it as simple as possible, not wanting to turn it into a replica of My space or similar.

Seems my course work was acceptable and I have sent in a request for practise tests.
I have one more section left, databases and then I presume the last test before receiving my award.
Will be glad, when, it is finished.

How do I feel today?
Different from the previous week or so,
Am in the mood to assist father with planting and then perhaps finishing off tidying the flat up, getting unpacked and generally chill out.
I did make enquiries yesterday and some more gear was expected later that night.
Judging by the amount of human traffic around the close in the early hours of the morning, I suspect the delivery has indeed been made.
I break to hoover.

Father arrived as I was finishing and we promptly got stuck into garden.
He planted about 80 petunias and I did my best to do a little weeding.
He eventually left, returning home for a huge dinner no doubt.

I sat, passed a little time away, and returned to bed.

I didn’t go to sleep, merely laid in several different positions trying to ease the pain in my back and neck brought on by the hovering and bending whilst gardening.

I had asked the nearest dealer but apparently the cupboard is bare!

Spent an hour or so on Internet plugging URL, don’t know why.

Now, having got room sufficiently warmed up, I’ll watch my usual early evening television programs and have an early night.
Am in a lot of pain, one of those days when doesn’t matter how many times you think of reasons to be cheerful.
Life sucks!
