A shed day

Can a few hours in me shed take my mind off work? Answer: No! I loved today, and the fact that I got to just go to my shed and make a box to contain the TV that became surplus, once we bought a 43″ TV for our bedroom. Anyway watching TV in me shed […]

Symbolic

As my whole family watched the bottles fall from my backpack and smash on the floor it seemed symbolic that no matter how hard I try life just has no regard for my efforts, it just says Fuck You! I would never not try my best but to go to work knowing non of my […]

Good kebab

As days go this was just another one as I worked from home while my family went out for the day trying to finish their holidays by getting out of the house. I decided when I finished work to groom and bathe to wash away the first few days back before taking Billy into town […]

Back to black

As expected the chaos and lack of planning became absolutely apparent when I returned to work today and it seems so demoralising to think this will not get any better…

All is quiet!

Not really quiet but in past years New years day is usually spent trying to get over the night before but although a lie in was great we went for a walk, something we have decided to do every morning not just today. Jamie wants to be more active and to join me and Billy […]

NYE 2024

The highlight for me should be getting the electrics finally sorted enough to get the dryer into Jamie’s shed? But it goes to Jamie taking a dip in her new cold plunge pool, something I will never understand and on a really cold day I watched her question whether she was  crazy to even be […]

Wasted day

Let’s go buy lights seemed like a great plan but it ended up with me nearly shitting meself in Morrisons and feeling like I wasted my last day off with nothing to do, which is slightly ironic! We laid in till 9:30 went for a walk and then drove to Northwich with the intention of […]

A day in the life

Denver needed to win and they’re in the playoffs but like last week fell short again versus the Bengals in overtime.  I wrote on social media straight after the game “Overtime, over achieving maybe, but it ain’t arf exciting! Disappointing to lose such a close game, we’re beginning to find out where we stand in […]

TV trip to Stoke

I sat and looked into Jamie’s eyes last night and I could not have been happier, I love her so much it hurts, she said I am the most caring man but I said I just do my best… My Christmas present to her was supposed to be a speaker and perfume wrapped in bedding […]

And relax

Managing to relax finally after all the pressure of Christmas I spent the day pottering tidying the house a bit and getting Jamie’s bedding on the bed. Her face was an absolute picture as she snuggled into bed tonight, I think bedding was the best present not the booby prize as it was intended.
