General life story
So after the walk around Leeds castle, I still had the energy to put up a Christmas tree in Claire new office. She had been saying it would never fit, but a slight move around in the office it was no trouble for MJ Limited. Have a video as well, but your need to login to see. ?
More early Christmas decorations including a video that you will have to login to see. ?
So after chatting with Mark Scholfield during the week, I decided with his help to start a blog, as I didn’t want use any of the big commercial websites.
So on Saturday 14th November @ 16:36 https://mjmaddog.co.uk was born and created.
I have to say a BIG thank you to Mark for his help and time, especially over this weekend.
Hopefully I haven’t disturbed him too much since?
During the de-cluttering, I found this invite. It was my first year at the company and I was really taken aback, that they took all the UK employees over to Boston for a week, which included a trip up the east coast of America on a boat, which included a meal and drink. Fun times.
With all this blogging and being retired, you have to eat well and keep your strength up and stay healthy. ?
Claire working hard and late in her new home office.
Due to the cricket ball incident and finding out about my bad blood supply, I started to wear my compact compress stocking, aren’t they sexy?
Friday I did what I called my first “pocket money work”, it was a bit like old work, as it was IT, setting up a new PC. It actually went very smoothly. Thank you Martin Ives for offering this.
23rd September Wednesday night, Claire went to bed but said she felt strange. Neither of us thought much of it.
Next day, I was up at some stupid o’clock, I heard Claire alarm go off, went upstairs and got washed and ready for the day. Claire said her head felt funny and body was feeling strange. She got washed and dressed and came down, she did her blood and it was 23 (this is very high). Usually from pasted experience, this means she isn’t well, but she didn’t know what.
She had her breakfast, but still wasn’t feeling great and did her blood again and now showing 25, I said you need to ring 111 for advice. For around the next 30 minutes, I kept saying she needed to ring 111 as she just didn’t feel right.
Finally she gave in and rang, after going through various questions, the call taker put her through to a consultant. Further questions were asked and they said are you alone or with someone, Claire I have my husband, please get him to take you to hospital.
So I drove Claire to a hospital, again because of Covid19, I wasn’t allowed in. Within in an hour (that is pretty fast in England) she was in a bed and waiting to see a consultant.
I went home and waited.
We decided in the sales and with some vouchers that we would treat ourselves to a American fridge/freezer.
We ordered online and could only arrange for one of the old devices to be taken away.
On delivery day, I ask if they could put the other one at the top of the drive, to see if an iron monger would take it away.
On leaving, we gave them a tip, they said thank you and would take the other device as well, I asked it wouldn’t cause an issue, they replied no as no one checks anything ??
