ramblings of a grey haired fox

Good mornings pop pickers

Another week of not sleeping and chit lungs
Spent my savings and next few months income on a new bed like a normal one but moves like a hospital bed
Only a few companies make decent ones £3600/4200😱
But managed to get a cancelled one for £1500 who's speck almost Match my needs and will be here in a few weeks
Over 4 yrs since I've slept in a bed 🥴
( I sleep on my electric recliner chair which I got of the local selling page)
Ex bro in law has been here all week throwing my prized processions into the skip 😥
So have the windows open and I'm drugged up as far as I can go and nebulising every 4 hrs but it's pushing the limits with the dusts thsts rising in the house
If I disappear for a few days I'll either be in hospital or most likely sitting in my chair not daring to moving,

Benifit fell into place at end of last summer
Along with extra discount on rent, tax, water which means I payout very little now out of my 73 and hense why I've managed to save money, that and the fact I can't get out🙄

Due to the latest turn down in health I'm now at a level where I can apply for careres allowance
So rang dwp will have the normal forms, face 2 face interview which I'll have to fight for a home visit
Only to be informed that they class it as a fresh claim and I could end up with nothing 0 points £0 from dwp
WHICH is a bit chit to say the least
Don't really have a choice so bit of a fingers crossed job,
Just have to make sure I answer the questions the same as before and don't miss anything

Sorry for the ramble just needed to let all go
Roll on Wednesday till I've something decent to
Complain about 🙄🥴

This is what happens when you're not in Round 4 of the FA Cup... See what you're doing to people Puel!!?

Seriously though. You seem very upbeat for someone in a lot of stress, so whatever happens don't lose that spirit Dublin, even though the footy is taking it's toll on all of us at the minute

That info is quite sad Dubs, but uplifting in a way at the same time - it puts into context any of my issues which have been bothering me recently, which fortunately pale into insignificance compared with your health, mobility and financial problems.

Hope all the upcoming matters you've elucidated go well for you over the coming weeks. I used to knew someone who had crippling arthritis and the special chair and bed he had were of great help to him.

It should give you a lift when we return from Anfield on Wednesday with three points rather than the anticipated mauling (oh look, I've just spotted a large pink object floating past my window)!

I found out this morning that I have broken my toe, can’t play football for at least 2 months and am going to be hobbling around when I go to Barcelona in a few weeks. It certainly does make me have reality check With regard to what I moan about !

Dubbers (is it ok if I call you Dubbers?). As always I wish you the best. Hopefully your new set up and bed will improve things for you (once the dust settles).

I also can’t conplain. All I’ll say is that I enjoy your presence on these boards and your match-day company is always appreciated when I can’t attend the game.

Next game is a home game for me. Let’s hope we can get a miracle for you 👍
