#BlogLife1064 - Incommunicado

I'm sure the rotis were better fresh, it didn't soften in the microwave as I'd hoped.

Unfortunately I'm out of butter so I couldn't slather it. I couldn't be bothered to turn on the press, wait for it to heat, wait for the rotis to warm up, meh.

They went really nicely with the tikka pieces and the burger salsa, plus I added the mint raita and finished the last of the few pakoras I had so I couldn't even finish half the roti.

But at least now it's all cooked so I don't have to stand much. I'm still drained but at least there is no more appointments this week.

I also cooked some chicken frankfurters to add a bit more variety and so that I would be full.

I kinda forgot I was bloated and struggling to feel that hungry. Plus I have the cashews and crisps so there is stuff to tide me over until tomorrow.

I'm kinda relieved they don't have the 8amish slot available, the next one is 10am, so I don't have to wake up too early for the third time this week.

Wow ok, just got a call from Iceland, the van has broken down so instead of it being due now, it's going to be from 7pm-9pm ouch.

But at least they had the manners to call and at least unlike Tesco they didn't cancel, she actually asked me if that was ok for me, didn't just assume.

So it's unfortunate but I do have leftovers still so I won't go hungry and won't need to do takeout.

The cramps are so bad with every movement and it started off mild and now it's all day, ugh.

I'm not drinking enough, maybe that's why? Getting up just seems like so much effort and not pleasant to be on my feet.

Plus the drinks going warm and I can't always be bothered to grab the ice poles to stick them in and make them chilled for longer.

I skipped dinner, I'm just not feeling that hungry for big meals. I didn't have to get up early after all.

It's only 10amish, I'll probably eat at lunchtime. All this time I was craving rotis, finally got them and now not excited.

They don't really have any taste, I can't help comparing it to the one's at home or at relatives houses, where it was so delicious and moreish, it was probably my favourite thing to eat..

Sometimes I think I can be a vegetarian because today's roti wraps would have been so much better without meat..

I didn't want to waste it, so I had it but didn't enjoy it that much.

The best thing was dipping the plain roti into the burger salsa and mint raita.

In the end I mixed them together and it was a perfect blend.

Oh on Thursday finally heard from Mama, she emailed and asked me what gifts my GrandMama should get me, she offered...?

And I thought why? You don't really ask about me. You're not concerned about my life....

You forced me to be religious when I was against it, so you didn't accept me for who I was....

Why now? As usual I told her it's unnecessary but I was appreciative and if she insisted, the only thing that I need is slippers.

I wear them out frequently. Mama said she'll pick up Cheetos and Kisses so I only made a request to seek out the nut ones, because we've only ever had the plain ones..

That was it, no mention if she was having a good time, arrived safely, what she was upto..... 

So be it. I wished her well. Oh she let something else slip but I'm not really sure about it.

Way back before, she said it was a year and I didn't speak at School at all.

But today she said I didn't talk normally until Junior school, I think it was, so I'm wondering if at Primary and Nursery I wasn't communicating then either.......

Hmm, strange, I just switched my phone on from being charged and now it says between 3pmish and 4pmish I'll get my Iceland order..

Maybe another error? Or did they fix the van issue sooner than expected?

I'm glad the tracking isn't saying delivered anymore, as the time slot passed.

It always makes me think, they've forgotten about me. That was cool, he arrived at 3.30pm, was helpful but I kept switching bags and it was hard to open them.

I was trying to explain I'm trying to even them out and he shovelling the items in...

I'm not risking a strain! But it's done and sorry can't face dinner but I will snack on crisps, if that helps..

And I've been sipping water so that and the anti cramp video, means I don't feel as bad as before.

Ouch tried to shift and spoke to soon.
