I went to my friend E whilst the Engineer fitted my new stairlift. Very exciting. I felt very at home at E’s and then came home to learn how to come upstairs whilst seated. Great improvement!

I find myself in the sitting room when I should be tucked up in bed. Think it’s time to go to sleep.

I feel like I have a cold this morning. It will probably pass when I have my breakfast.

There’s been a wine accident somewhere in Portugal. I don’t know what has happened but the thought and sight of a big wine spillage seems like a huge waste. I will listen out for more.

I wonder if the fact that my antipsychotics have stopped me having any sexual feelings for the past forty years was ignorance on behalf of the medical profession or a deliberate intention by those behind these drugs.

The earthquake in Morocco is terrible – absolutely terrifying. So many dead and injured and the rest must be in shock. We are so lucky living here!

My counselling session this week started with difficulties because their phone lines were down and the mobile he used was very crackly and I couldn’t hear but after awhile he tried another one and that was fine. Counselling going well but I am not at a point where we should finish them. I still get flashbacks when similar things come up on the television.

This Tory government is now trying to sell offshore wind. They would sell their own Mothers if they could.

I am expecting a phone call sometime that l don’t want to miss. Hopefully it will be soon! I am taking my mobile around with me – something I am not used to doing.

I am going to have a busy day today. My dear friend S can’t come and help me today although her replacement has been before. And my cooker has broken down and an Engineer is coming. And I have a food delivery coming as well.
