A GLITCH IN THE MATRIX

 WEDNESDAY - Another Christmas been and gone all for one day a big commotion loads of preparation organising and buying more food and drink that you will ever eat .I think I over spent this year I did spend a lot on Helen I think off it is to do with covid also my ex wife died two days after Christmas got to big it up and live it whilst you can , because we do never know what the future holds .

Its no good predicting what 2022 holds just going to have to wait and see hopefully less and less people die from covid . Hope a war in Europe does not happen and Russia does not invade or attack the Ukraine if it happens who knows it really might be the last Christmas that lots of people have just celebrated hopefully not.

We have both finally finished with 02 our phone provider for the last five years we have made the move over to Vodaphone unlimited data cheaper bills and a one year less on contract hopefully a win , win , win for us .Watched a You Tube video about Tesla phones I reckon both Apple and Samsung are going to loose customers they look and perform that good maybe we should have waited before upgrading ,The iPhone 13 pro is good but its nothing much new apart from the camera the sound quality is better and the battery life lasts all day which is good .

Watched the first Matrix film with Helen we have the other two to watch before the latest release I think you need to at least watch the first one for the latest film to make any sense .I have not watched the final film only a small part .Think for the last two years there has been a major glitch in everyones Matrix ,

THURSDAY - Booked a PCR test yesterday morning have still not got any reply other than my application had been accepted as far as I know they only work a few hours per day so it could be Friday New Years eve ,I do feel ok I have a slight soar throat and a very mild headache which comes and goes sometimes I will also feel warmer for no reason and I will need to stand outside if this is Omicron I  am not worried in the slightest , saying that I believe I have just got a mild cold .

TESTING TIMES

 MONDAY - Loaded the Guardians of The Galaxy on to my x-box one . Its back to work enough side .

TUESDAY HELENS BIRTHDAY - Bought Helen a Michael Kors brown leather bag she chooses before Christmas but as she knew I bought it as she was with me . I wrapped up a bottle of Lady Million and dropped it inside as a surprise present .

Had to leave work half way through my shift had a phone call from Helen someone we have been in contact with over Christmas  have tested positive for covid .

WEDNESDAY - Booked a PCR test not sure when I will get my appointment could be tomorrow which looks like I won't be back at work until Monday, now I have booked the test I feel shit ..Give me time to play on the X-box .My Son also text me to say he was not feeling well he stayed with us Christmas Eve , day and Boxing Day .

To be honest I did not want this to happen chances are I will go back to work then if I get snowed in it will mean more time of work , but either situation I have no control over its out of my hands .

Order three tubes of face wash gel and a large pump action shaving gel from Amazon using a gift card I received for Christmas .

CHRISTMAS DONE

 CHRISTMAS DAY  2021 

We was up most of the night cooking the gammon joint soaking it, boiling it then roasting it took the past part of twenty four hours .It was glased using honey and maple syrup it was perfection .We then slow cooked the turkey starting at four in the morning  I got up at half past six to baste it .Dinner was at four there was my Son Guy and Helens two sons Liam and Steve we all ate Christmas dinner there was plenty off food although between us we each ate more than what we should have done. Including both its and the dogs .It was also the first Christmas I have had with my son for in a long time even years .On the evening we sat down together and watched the new Matrix film with Guy , Helen had gone to bed .

Below Bentley tucking in to his gammon and turkey .

BOXING DAY - Went over to my daughters house with Guy obviously his sister and stayed a few hours before dropping my son of back in York . As much as I like Christmas all I have seemed to do is to loose sleep and drive forward and backwards to different locations for the benefit of others .

NEW PHONES

 WEDNESDAY - Helen bought a new ironing board and I bought an electrical steamer its better than the last one but not has good as I thought it would be perhaps my expectations are too high .

Helens phone went of her O2 sim had been deactivated we put her new Vodaphone SIM card in and it was back to normal she also  had a voice mail from Curry's telling her that her new iPhone 13 pro max is in and ready to be picked up .We will pick it up tomorrow mine should not be too far behind maybe in time for Christmas we was both  supposed to get them on the 31st of December .

Went to the Red Lion had beer batter fish sandwiches with a portion of fries we ate in the car .

THURSDAY  - We both picked up our new iPhone 13 pro max so far so good only thing I cant do is set up my online banking app at the moment I am not receiving text massages due to changing SIM cards and network providers next twenty four hours should sort it out .We are both impressed the sound picture and camera quality have all been updated .

Went to see my daughters new home its over four floors it has a cellar do miss hot having a cellar I thought it looked great they need to do nothing in the bathroom its ultra modern the attic room is big the stairs are in the middle it has another rteo bedrooms on the floorr below .The kitchen id big and has patio doors leading to the garden all in all its a nice house they should be very happy.

Went to Asda did some last minute shopping magnet to get bread , milk and fresh orange juice , mince pies and some chicken pieces for my tea .

CHRISTMAS  EVE - Went to the local farm shop at Flowery fields was there just after half past eight I picked up two turkey crowns and a joint off gammon that I had ordered cost  £85 the turkey crowns are for two meals .

We have to drive over to York to see helens parents and to pick my son up as always too much to do so little time .

HOLY DAYS

 SUNDAY - Helens son Liam rang me he wanted to know if his mother would like a. Gucci necklace or earrings I said necklace hopefully she gets what he said he is going to buy her  because she over heard hopefully he is true to his word or she will be upset all of her sons have never really spoilt her at Christmas or her birthday which always annoys me maybe this year its different.

MONDAY - Still waiting for Ikea to refund us £981 so we can buy the corner sofa hopefully this week it will be returned on to Helens card , will be well into the new year before we get a delivery slot .

Two days at work then five days off including Christmas even , Christmas Day and Boxing Day which I am quite happy about , a pity there is no Christmas bonus specially after working through covid the last two years .

Will have to pick the turkey crowns and joint of gammon up either 23rd or the 24th more than likely be on the 23rd if I go early enough I won't have to queue but no choice otherwise it will be a tin of Pek instead .

Shopping yesterday there was loads of food nothing seemed to be in short supply only thing we couldn't buy was our normal dog food as it was al sold out that was three stores that have sold out think its a delivery issue rather than people panic buying .

Be interesting to see if there is going to be another lockdown either before or just after Christmas guess its a case of not if but when ?.

The is a saying "if we aint got it now we can do with out " as there is only so much food and other essential items you can buy in any reasonable quantity unless you are mega rich and buy everything in packs of twenty fours . 

Dish washer tablets , washing machine pods , toothpaste and shampoo obviously  toilet rolls , shower gel cooking oil , salt and pepper and other seasoning herbs and spices otherwise food is bland but where do you draw the line for Helen its a must she has dry roasted peanuts polo mints and chewing gum for me its coffee pods and cider and brown sugar . I cant live without mouthwash and shaving gel I have an electric shaver but prefer a wet shave if I can .

TUESDAY - My Daughter moved into her new house in time for Christmas and I break up until next Monday which is good news for me .

FESTIVE SHOPPING

 FRIDAY - Helens card came from Paperchase its a card that is musical it plays "We Wish You A Merry Christmas" there is a blade inside a globe that spins and creates a snow effect its quite good ,Helen liked it any way .

The shit might be hitting the fan at work with the new covid variant Omicron they are expecting hospitals to be over run including the hospital I work at . More than likely they  will be an increase in staff that are off with the new strain so will want the others to work more shifts any do longer hours and cancel annual leave .Should have though about that when they gave us a shitty 3% pay rise , all in this together not this time Boris .

A week today is Christmas Eve how the year as flown bye and the events that have happened has made for a strange year 2022 does not seem to be looking any better who knows who wants to predict what the future holds hopefully we can all live in peace in a better more caring world , not going to happen is it as we never learn .

SATURDAY - Helen had a few readings to do at the salon I sat in the car watching the first few episodes of Squid Game .After we went to Morrisons at Meltham and bought some food and other bits for Christmas including three boxes of Christmas cards and first class stamps  ,

SUNDAY - Went to Asda bought a case of Budweiser as well as more food bought Indian food for sunf=day dinner I also bought a case of cloudy apple cider bought two cases of dog and cat food should keep them going until after Christmas that's over £260 over the weekend .

NUTELLA PEANUT CHEESE CAKES

MAKE THE MOST

SUNDAY - Wrapped some presents up of course need to buy gift tags and bows well no ones perfect .

Went shopping to Fox Valley outlet to Andersons boutique store and bought Helen  another Michael Kors handbag for her birthday and a silver spoon ring what is made out of a old antique silver spoon then bent in to a finger ring .Had a spray of the Initio Oud mens perfume  still love the smell got some free samples of the  Pegasus and Percival range not heard of them and they do smell good but not better than the Initio , one day .

Ordered two turkey crowns and a joint of gammon for Christmas dinner from the farm shop I need to pick it up on the 23rd or 24th of December least we won't need room in the freezer as it will be fresh .

MONDAY - Asked my son Guy over for Christmas will pick him up Christmas Eve and he will stay over two nights at least he won't be on his own this Christmas .It will be the first Christmas in a l long time I will have been with him on Christmas Day .

TUESDAY - Finished work at 02.00 am at three a.m I was pushing a trolley round Asda buying some essentials for Christmas like stuffing goose fat and two jars of cranberry sauce goes with the turkey as well as other bits like flour and pastry didn't get everything but there is still time it was nearly four when I got to bed after having a shower and a juice .

Up at half past nine a.m chopped the veg and onions for the braising steak I am cooking in the slow cooker we are having it for tea put some red wine and Worcester sauce in should be nice .

Still need to get some beers , cider and other drinks not going mad as we are running out of money I have spent the most ever on Christmas presents its not been a cheap Christmas . I know many people who put their Christmas tree away last year, was for the last time we are all in dangerous times not just with covid but with Russia amassing troops ready for war , China building weapons for use in space   . And all other natural disasters floods , tornadoes and earth quakes .So better make the most of it . 

NO BIRD THIS CHRISTMAS

 THURSDAY - Took Bailey out he has not been out for a week the vet said cage rest plus the weather has not been great he seems to be a lot better he has nearly finished his medication and seems to be walking fine I know he won't be fully healed hopefully his improvement continues .

My Daughter Tuesday has recovered from her bout of covid her smell has slightly returned but her taste buds haven't and she cant taste which must be annoying .

Not sure when to buy the turkey for Christmas dinner will need to make room in the freezer to fit a turkey crown in the latest is born flu thousands of turkeys have been slaughtered if I do decide to buy one  it will need freezing will also need to buy turkey gravy , cranberry sauce brandy sauce and Christmas puddings and pigs in blankets and veg special parsnips and sweet potatoes .I wouldn't mind a decent leg of lamb if the turkeys are a no go .

Thought we might have had a email saying our iPhones where ready to pick up. Helens phone as started to over heat and mine I can only charge wireless so once we get the new phones the better , plus unlimited data will be a great blessing specially for me at work no more running out currently have 15gb which in this day and age is nothing short of crap .

FRIDAY  - Ordered another two echo dots for presents and another Pandora charm one gift left to buy and that's it no more presents left to buy . My Daughter and her partner might be moving house on the 17th go December not the best date in the world but if it goes through then they will move .

ANOTHER FIRE

 SUNDAY - More snow fell in the morning before we got up out of bed  think it snowed more than the day before and its also  colder if it freezes the roads out of Hade Edge are going to be impassable  unless the gritters have been out .The trouble is any way out of the village is either up and down hills and valleys  little winding roads .Just got to sit in drink coffee with bourbon and watch Netflix and Prime .

MONDAY - Taking Helen to the dentist had to clear the car after the second lot of snow  it was also iced over the windows.I  also cleared the drive way getting back on to the drive after going out  is always a nightmare .

Made it to the dentist I parked up at the supermarket four hours on my ticket  .We where early so did some shopping bought plain and self-raising flour two packets of Atora suet for dumplings if we so wished and two packets of digestive biscuits and three cartons of fresh orange juice as well as a can of de-icer spray  .Helen couldn't have any dental work done she has to take a course on antibiotics to clear the swelling her infected tooth as caused.

Cooked us a lasagne for tea with home made garlic bread and fries and of course a cloudy cider for me .

Last day off tomorrow don't think we are going to get anymore snow over the next few days so we might get out not sure where but n o doubt we will do something because its back to work Wednesday .

SATURDAY - Got up it has snowed through the night its a few inches thick its drifted in parts and a car in our street already got stuck we have a neighbourhood who cleared the road with his tractor .He did the same the year before we are on a new estate its a joke we should have got a free shovel and bag of grit free with every house .

Ordered a Kindle fire tablet 7" and a case I am buying it for my son for Christmas I am not buying him anything too grand I was going to get him and echo dot but the fire tablets where in the Black Friday sale so seeing he does not have a smart phone I figured he would get more use out of the tablet he does have  an internet connection .

SATURDAY - Went to the Fox Valley shopping outlet to buy a few toiletries and snacks we didn't have anything in the way of snacks bought some Reese's peanut cups  and some chocolate buttons should have bought some Coca-Cola . never mind I have cider .

Finally watched the new James Bond film in its entirety thought it wasn't that great and I didn't like the ending and a few other bits in the film didn't make sense  but it  was good in parts a long wait for a mediocre film .

CRISTMAS DECO

 THURSDAY - Helen has pulled something in her back she is suffering badly she is in pain and is stressing out , some how something as dropped in her back or moved she thinks its a nerve or muscle or both . I had to take yesterday off work and have booked the rest of the week off , its not good but I cant leave her on her own .Hopefully over the next four , five days things ease off , as I can only have so many days off work .Helen slept on the sofa half sat up we have a heat bag that you heat up in the microwave which the doctor recommended hopefully it eases her pain and discomfort even if only slightly .

I bought her some deep heat patches that are like giant plasters the give out heat for 16 hours hopefully they will help .

Like the rubberised Nike watch strap for my Apple Watch that came the other day so much that I have ordered another one which is  off white and back the opposite of  the black and white one that I have already purchased.

FRIDAY - Went to Wentworth garden centrre thought a walk around would help Helens back we went to look at the Christmas decorations I bought some led remote  tree candles , a pre lite fir tree garland for the fire place and a Christmas scene snow lantern .

SIX GUYS ONE LADY

 TUESDAY - Whilst in Meadow Hall went to Five  Guys one hamburger , one cheese burger a regular fries and two peanut milk shakes £30 .02 it was worth it if you like burgers Five Guys is as good as anywhere .

WEDNESDAY - China  kicking off with Taiwan , Russia kicking off with Europe , Covid -19 still hanging around , people still dying , global warming and pollution , volcanos and asteroids heading towards earth we are fcuked and its not looking good . So my advice is cash in what money you can get in debt and buy what ever your heart desires.Treat your nearest and dearest and of course yourself and do whatever pleases you , including eating and drinking and being happy because its one life .

Got tonight away from work I am not attending my shift Helen as pulled her back and is in pain and needs help moving about no way can she cope on her own , we are waiting a call back from the G.P
