It’s around lunchtime on Thursday, and I’ve just ordered Domino’s for lunch. It’s my monthly takeaway treat, which is probably just as well: nearly $50 for a basic pizza delivery for one is a lot. It’s hard to justify doing it more often. Tomorrow is our usual Friday routine with Chaice, followed by ...

It’s Friday morning, and I started writing this at 3:55am. Somehow, another week has already flown by. Chaice is due in about four hours for our usual weekly routine. I’ll start the day by calling the chemist to arrange medication for Chaice to pick up later this morning. After that, we’re heading t ...

Tomorrow is Friday again, and this week seems to have flown by. It feels like I only just finished last week’s Friday routine. We’re heading to Ettalong first to visit the vape shop, then I’ll pick up breakfast from one of my favourite bakeries. I’ll stick with my usual: a chicken and beetroot sandw ...

At 2:55am, I’m still awake because my stump is causing me a lot of pain. Earlier, I took my scooter to Ettalong and had a can of Pepsi by the water. I hoped the ride might tire me out enough to get some sleep before my 8:15 doctor’s appointment, but so far, no luck. Other than that appointment, my c ...

After 1596 days, I have made the very difficult decision to end everything to do with my prosthetic. I just can no longer go on the way things have been. I would get up and about with Bodie once a week for one or two weeks, have another fall, get a wound on my stump, then have to wait for it to 100% ...

My GP has ordered an ultrasound of my neck. She believes, after my recent blood test results, that I may have a thyroid issue. Just what I need. Another health battle ahead of me. The scan is booked in for next Thursday - 13th August - I have had to arrange support for that day from 1pm until 5pm. O ...

It's currently 10:00 pm on Thursday evening, and I have officially run out of my pain medication. I took my last dose yesterday, so tomorrow morning cannot come soon enough. I have an appointment with my doctor at 8:00 am, after which I'll need to contact the chemist to arrange my prescription. My s ...

Supermarket Chicken Cook Stacy Leadbeatter has been given KSI's Golden Buzzer for her rendition of Snow Patrol's Run. To me this was this year's Susan Boyle and Paul Potts moment.
