So much for a restful day…

Posted on Posted in Memories, UncategorizedTagged , , , , , , , , 4 Comments

Next door is banging and drilling again! So much for a quiet day. I live in a terraced house and there is no soundproofing between us, so the noise can be distracting.

This has been going on for probably a year. I thought the drill was going to come through my wall a few minutes ago. He must have been drilling a deep hole. I presume he’s fitting the house out now?

Last week I found half a window frame in my yard. I was tempted to try and throw it back but I don’t have the strength and I don’t want to break anything! And there goes the drilling again. I will have to go out.

SWEARWORDS!

Christmas eve

I wish I could do something about my new neighbour but I don’t want to speak to him. He’s there now, I think he does a bit of hammering to let me know he’s in. I thought my house was on fire when I came home from visiting a friend, but no he was just burning stuff in the back yard again. The smoke was drifting over the top of my kitchen. Anyway his front door just slammed and he drove off. Happy Christmas eve! I’m going to finish my banana butty and cake bar tea.

Bad stats!

Oh dear, I’m not on line as much and my stats are going down. I’ve been in choir performances over the last few days and by the time I get home I’m usually exhausted and fall asleep. At the moment I’ve nodded of a few times, I can hardly stay awake.

My neighbours hammering at 7am in the morning which doesn’t help. I think he is knocking the plaster off the walls of his kitchen where it is damp. Anyway I’ll write more later x

Sleep (lack of)

I wanted to sleep

Curl up and rest

Each hour I don’t

Makes me feel wretched

Too hot, too cold

My feet hurt, my neck aches

Sleeping on an armchair

Doesn’t really work.

But my ribs hurt

If I lie down.

Broken a fortnight or more ago

Still mending.

Walk round my room

Make a warm drink

Put the radio on low

Turn it off

Legs ache

Feet swell

Impossible

Doze above flying feilds

…….

Snap awake

The builders just started work

Next door

Whimpering.
