Gratitude Post

Feeling quite tired today,had a fretful sleep last night despite being warm, and exacerbated the same stiffness or gnawing pain on the same right side of the neck. This may be due to stress of course. Whatever the symptoms i am downing my second cup of coffee at big M.

Meeting my brother at eleven today outside the rail station, in which he will give me the spare laptop,and at some cafe shw me some of the functions on it.I think i know enough about computers without the guidance but there may be quirks he wants to point out.

Meanwhile, Phil contacted me with a link that may help whilst waiting for the room at The Quays to become available. The organisation which is based in Kent is called Porchlight and they help with homeless and rough sleepers. They have a free number so will contact them today.

Anyway , you wonderful people who have given me support either in just virtual hugs, or financial, and so on,spurs me to fight on and blog , and feel less lost. This is a horrendous time for me, but somehow i seem to gain some strength from you guys, and for that i am eternally grateful. If any of you guys still want to give donations feel free to do so. Spread the word.

Whilst here in Sittingbourne i might pop into the library , read a newspaper, that is i don't fall asleep, and see if i can get some printouts at Bell House job hunting.

A Load Of Ifs ....

If you had a power what would it be and why?

If you could, would you be a rock star or a movie / TV star?

If you could visit any planet in the Solar System, except Earth, which would it be and why?

WTF?

Very Good News

Well , what an extraordinary day. I have good news. I have secured that room and now should be able to move in on Monday! The relief is palpable!

Bro cane down and net me at the rail station (in Sittingbourne) and we headed for big M for a snack, He gave me a Compaq laptop and case with an external 320 GB head drive, a Sony mp3 player, an electronic torch, hi der bud earphones, and a wad of cash. Then we go to Currys/ PC World/Carphone Warehouse to buy me a ten pound top up for my old Nokia phone, and ends up buying me a pay as toy go Huawei Y3 G4 smartphone !

Not only that but Phil texted me to say to head to Nat West bank , pop in a six digit code on the emergency cash option, and i would have some money from him as well.

I am so gobsmacked. It was difficult not to shed some tears. Also by the time i met my beo that throbbing neck ache had disappeared.

Does happy dance and squishes F list!
