So... How'd Your Day Go?

my wife Vickie, having over the past year suffered a diabetic coma, several strokes that left her vision impaired, diarrhea from Chrone's disease, several hospital visits including a month in rehab, decided today that she was tired of this laying in bed stuff, got up, put on jeans and work boots and helped me rake leaves and pick up the yard. She did this sitting down, mind, but still...

So, shamed into feeling guilty for griping about my own workload, I got off my a$$ and worked. Now if either of us can get out of bed tomorrow...

Erroneous post.

Consulted my technical advisor, (Younger daughter) and worked on putting some stuff on my youtube channel. Mostly it is stuff I wrote, but there is one called Jannie's dragon which is a traditional story. I think that probably comes out best because I am not reading it, with storytelling you know the essentials of the story and fill in the bits around them as you go.

Kind of a rare, slow day for me. Rainy. Left me feeling unmotivated and lazy, hence all the posts of questionable value here on writingforums.com... :)

These are great Olly! Granted, being from the other side of the pond, you could probably read your phone book and I would still listen avidly just because of the accent! :lol: But I watched "Shabby Tigers" and "Fairy Doors" and enjoyed both thoroughly!

Thanks folks, watch this space, more coming now I have posted those and can delete them and make room on my phone. My personal favourite is Jannie's dragon because it is not one of my stories but a traditional tale, so I tell it from memory and don't have to keep looking down at the page. I shall be doing it again sometime as it comes out different every time, and a few more of them, I have a reasonable repertoire as a storyteller.

After my computer went awol this last time I started a diary, don't know if I shall continue with my scribblings, not sure that I'd want my wife to see it if whenever, you know. But for now, what the hell. I've even going to my local library to see if I could type it out and print on one of their computers, that would kill an hour or two. We'll see.

In my humble opinion,,I think u should continue w your scribblings. With your diary. Just tell yourself,,,let my wife find it and read if she does. Maybe she will learn a thing or two about ole’ Dither. I for one support u on your continuation of the Dither Diaries.

Oh dear, that should read " I've even thought about going to my local library".


Rose, I started making notes of how I feel, how I am. Basically, it's an explanation, an apology almost.
