Mum

At my home. I couldn't have a pie ofcourse, I don't know how much salt is inside it.

I wish I enjoyed today. I haven't felt well for most of today. I tried lots of sleep. That didn't work. I lost 3 kilos yesterday. My energy isnt very high. Stayed in all day.

I did watch Andy Murray game and Nadal was better.

At my home

Wednesday and Thursday

On Wednesday we went shopping me and support went shopping. I still have a limit on how much standing/walking I can do physically. We finished the shopping with the correct stuff even with rubbish labels in lidl. We got home and i relaxed some more and we MADE spagbol for dinner from scratch after 4pm with my support (I have to know whats in it). It was great. Last night I went to the rugby club quiz and the team I was in won.



Today was a bit harder. I went to East Ayrshire Community Hospital for INR check (it was ok) with my support. Next I waited for a bus, it was 30 minutes after the test. After that I was tired I was going to Cumnock Health Centre for prescription (it wasn't ready). I taxi'd home and sat down. My support was in later and I told them what happenned. I finished my spagbol for dinner tonight (more economical) Tonight I relax.

Haircut

Already had 3 today and had haircut at Tommy Barber Shop, Auchinleck.
Its better day today.

Im home

Yes I am finally home after all that lovely time at Ayr Hospital. It has been a busy afternoon, I had some beans for dinner. I didn't eat much.

It has been a busy afternoon so the energy levels arent great. I weighed myself with my new scales and I am 73kg. The picture is me at my living room. Ive had visitors I was suppose to get already, so that was good. Having to watch salt is going need some work.

Andy Murray is winning the now. I will have visitors nearly every day now, thats how its set-up. I DONT WANT TO GO BACK TO HOSPITAL.

Enjoy my blog, I may use it a lot.

update

View Larger Map

Well lets see, I think it's time for a bit more of a update. I stay at home in Auchinleck 95% of the time. My bed is very comfortable. I have my weetabix in the morning and then the drugs. It also helps having this at home (the pc). Worst expense is when I have to use taxis. From the Auchinleck to East Ayrshire Community Hospital is just over a £5. Next Thursday is going to be busy. I have EACH at 9.05am and then my GP and 1030. I went to the church tonight (I arrange a lift to get me there which I have to thank). I am going Thursday night after the busy morning. Last Saturday I took a walk to topup my gas and nearly killed myself. Now I am stopping 5+ on the uphill parts to keep my energy. I think it's working. I bought some Red Kola (not Irn Bru as I said on facebook). It was delicious. The worst part I discovered this week was a BT bill which I went off in 2 weeks actually went off this weekend. I was anyway so I didn't really worry about it.

That covers it.

morning

Well good morning all, its nice and sunny outside in glorous Auchinleck. I had a meeting at Cumnock RFC for the mini/mini section from 7pm - 9pm. I just did the bit of work I had from the meeting for the website including advertising new events. I went to "my own bed" at 10.30pm last night. It was so somfy. Fell asleep fairly quickly. My house phone rang at 8am. I still enjoyed my weetabix and then coffee this morning.

Friday

The snow at cumnock

Monday

Ok got up early. A few weeks ago i was feeling rubbish. I thought I was feeling better. I have got worse. I tried physical stuff today. I was exhausted. I couldnt work. I headed to a+e. They said the heart condition could have got worse and gp needed to refer me to a consultant. I saw gp and thats done now. Went to jobcentre as well to see that next step as well with sick line fae gp. Oh and eating dry food, great.

Tue 16th

Thats the sun doing its job. I was tired at about 1145 went to bed and fell asleep. I woke up 125 and couldnt sleep so I got up and watched winter olympics on bbc2. When watching it i saw snow falling and saw a covering. I went back to bed at 3am and slept to nearly 9am.

My weekend again

Phew, were getting there.

Saturday as you may have guessed I enjoyed until about 70 minutes in Wales vs Scotland. The club did get slightly busier after I took my photo.

I watched France vs Ireland as well and FRANCE should win the 6nations. I went home at 7pm with the tables left one way. I watched Fantastic Four again, then my Super Ex Girlfriend (most of it, ive recorded the rest).

I got up around 9am and got ready for the longer day in the club. I got a phonecall and after getting out the bath I discovered somebody had been in to do more work on the tables, which the S1 needed postmatch. So I spoke to the lassies already in hall and we got it sorted. Also when I spoke to East Ayrshire Council just after new year about my first aid certificate they said they would sent it to rugby club. 1 Problem, THEY SENT IT TO KILMARNOCK RUGBY CLUB. I got it handed to me on Sunday by Stephen Taylor. I now have my first aid certificate.

The s1 finished at 1.40pm and at 1.45 the engagement party came in, phew. The party was here to 8.30pm. We put the Italy vs England 6 nations game on through on the bar and about a dozen were in for it, including a player who had got injured the day before (in crutches). It wasn't too mad at any point and the regulars came in at 5pm and the boys from Cardiff arrived around 8pm. I was kept just busy.

When I left the club I had a kebab for my dinner (as I was tired and not cooking).

I watched the Gordon Brown vs Piers Morgan interview and I liked it. The programme finished about 11.20 and I went straight to bed. I was tired. I slept to 9am this morning. I know I needed the sleep.

Now I have to sign on and I have committee meeting tonight.

Cumnock RFC Wales v Scotland

Social Media Podcast 14

Well its podcast time again. Kjmurdoch & Gordonwhite do there regular podcast.

I wouldn't allow a junior for a company to do things for a company. I know when I do stuff for Cumnock RFC I usually have to get a lot of agreement for me to do stuff. We just started using teamer which is a way to text/email players for the club for free (apart from USA). The president referred it to me to check out. I liked it but I still needed to talk to Head Coach that he wants me to use this to talk to the players.

Others things like emailing the local paper which in first instance I thought I might get in trouble for I got praised for. You do have to have a person that you trust to do this for you. Thats why I am the Cumnock RFC Webmaster. You have to know the boundaries that you can go to. There are things which ofcourse I do know which I don't put out publically.

Iain talking about tweetdeck and hootsuite is unfortunately not my area. I know Three just gave me twitter for free until end of march, but its just the mobile site.

I dont have an iphone but I do have audioboo via phoneboo. I linked it to my housephone, not that anybody has said anything to me (I have left it on the bottom of my blog). I just did a phoneboo asking about Wales vs Scotland, lets see if I get an answer for this one. I am on #googlewave since nov/dec and not many people are using it but googlebuzz already feels it has more people using it.

The talk about people using social media at work is going to be a continual subject. After a good discussion with Josh_biggs on twitter, its not as easy as it looks.

You guys are right about learning these new systems and what you want to do. Gordon I am sure Iain isnt your only follower, haha! I do know other people like the sky app, so I know people like it, right Alex.

ONLY IN ITALIA!!!! LOVE IT!!!!

The busy period

Well what a few days. Thursday 6.30 went to rugby training (as most of you should realise I don't goto Rugby Training to train, I go to talk to people. Then we set a few tables for Saturdays Burns supper. We were getting there. At the end we had 80 people at the burns supper on Saturday (we cant really take more than than).

Friday afternoon I did some shopping and Friday night we finished setting up for Burns Supper. I had already agreed I wasn't heading to Cowal for rugby Saturday. I stated in the poster the club would be open (I wasn't the only person who agreed to that) for all 6 nations games.

Saturday I headed down for 2pm, so I got there just before 2pm. The 1st XV won 50-10 and now face Isle of Arran next Saturday (when only a couple of senior players are in Cardiff for Wales vs Scotland). So they were heading back. I watched the Ireland vs italy game, the 1st 6nations game. It wasn't great but I had predicted Ireland would win and they did. There was only 1 PERSON watching the game with me.

The five oclock club came in at its usual time and so did Jennifer. I had been on bar myself to that point. When the next member of staff Amy came in at 6pm I headed for a shower and get changed. The trip and the telegraph pass which wales did during their game cost them. After I had got changed Catriona got here (after being to Cowal) and we got ready for Burns Supper, everybody says it was a great success. i had scotch broth, haggis neeps and tatties and stake pie, carrots, peas and tatties and I was full after that. There was a large mix of men and women there. I was on the "rugby Boys" tables, which ended being the Rugby boys and girls and Tommy (me) table. In the breaks I helped on the bar (it was only 10 minute breaks, I was drinking cold water all night). The events finished at midnight, it only started just before 7pm, VERY QUICK. Unfortunately my taxi only came at 1.30am. I wasnt walking home, so I was in Cumnock RFC for 12 hours yesterday.

I went to bed fairly quickly but I kept waking up almost every hour. I got up at 11am. I had my coffee and toast and had checked my email and watched euro 2012 draw (SCOTLAND AINT GOING TO QUALIFY, England will) when the phone rang this just after midday, wondering if I could let someone in weight room for 1pm. I was heading down to club for 2pm. I got my gear on including scotland top and headed down. At 2.15/2.30 I started getting busier behind bar again. It was just me today. 3pm the game started. Scotland KEPT on kicking the ball away and France were better than us. There was a point in 2nd half Scotland had a small breakaway from a lineout and "KICKED IT AWAY". A lesson I learned 15 odd years ago is "YOU DONT KICK YOUR POSSESSION AWAY (yes that ex coach was in club today), I told him that after full-time, where I get the Cumnock Bill McLaren line again. Harry and Morton were making and selling pies at lunch time and I had organised a float for Harry and I paid for my pie and told Harry to bring my pie through as I wouldn't get through for it. I only got to eat my pie 10 minutes into 2nd half as I was constantly busy until then (it was only me).

The game finished and only slowly the members started disapearing, but 630 if was quite, the five oclock club and ian and sadie had came in.

I closed the bar at 8pm, and so I had spent another 8 hours today, that meant I had done 20 hours VOLUNTARY WORK over 2 days. Because I havent had any beer and I wasn't cooking tonight I went to the chineese 2 minutes walk from home for chicken chow mein and I enjoyed it.

So anybody beat me for being busy.
