Well thats it mother managed half a day at home then refused to let her carers in and at that point it went nuclear on her, shes in a hospital somewhere , still trying to find out whats going on . Neighbour says shes to confused to deal with anything and she should never have been sent home in that state .
Meanwhile in the real world what the hell is going on , i managed to get him to let me go into Sleaford yesterday , to pop into the food pantry because i had the cash to pay my £6 for a bag full , hes currently refusing to pay anything because hes saving up for bits for his latest scooter project and i only got to go in because he was dropping bits off for shot blasting .AARRRGGGHHHH the food pantry is a bit weird at times you get an odd selection still lots of fruit and veg , theres lots of cereals and pasta but i have a good selection stockpiled so i leave those for who needs them more, then theres mountains of weird stuff yesterday they had a lard mountain , tons of end of day posh bread buns that just screamed pizza bread to me so i got a big bag because everybody was looking at them and putting them back , so sourdough pizza bread is todays project some to eat and a bag to pop in the freezer . there was a girl with a baby looking baffled so i explained that a tube of tomato puree will do dozens and you can use any mangy cheese you have even plastic slices and the kids wont care its just pizza bread to them. I do feel for those who dont know how to get by and who have never had to live poor before . I think i got adopted as i then had to explain that you can run stuff like the little jars of fish paste through pasta and it just tastes of tomato and once again kids love it .
I ventured into Iceland because theres been some good stuff in the sale freezer lately but they have done away with it for the festive season , but stuff got weird there was a Chinese lady who runs one of the takeways buying 2 trolleys of eggs , all the eggs in the shop in fact , i suppose she plans to freeze them so they dont run out ? who knows but the little lad on the till was struggling with the concept and trying to ask if she really needed so many and she started shouting in Chinese and it turned into a circus , in fact it was my entertainment for the day . She got all her eggs though ...lol
My other half is out side pacing the pavement awaiting the Tesco delivery. It's not due for another hour but he feels the need to pace. Still he's outside and I'm inside so at least he's not making my ears bleed.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your mother. Don't agree to do anything or step up. The food pantry sounds amazing. Lots of people grow up not knowing quite basic stuff, and sometimes they don't even know where to look for advice.
ReplyDeleteAvian flu has probably got people thinking that there is going to be an egg shortage. It's all worked out by them above us all, forcing us to buy veg and vegan stuff. I notice the freezers are gradually getting more and more veg stuff in them.
ReplyDeleteYour Mum is a perfect example of what is going on in the NHS.
My son is a nurse and five staff have just left. They are not going to replace them and that means that the staff left are running around like headless chickens and working longer hours for no extra money. I am beginning to give up on it all as are most people.
Meanwhile here Tom continues to worsen with nothing that can be done.
Maybe we could find a nice little island to go to together.
