Still lacking in energy post-heat wave, I think I need several weeks of sound sleeping to get back to normal.
Managed to get the car through the annual MoT test yesterday, which was a huge relief as I wouldn't have the time to fix any issues. Didn't initially realise the mechanic had altered the seat position (pretty much inevitable as he has to access the rear seats - to check the seat belts - and it's a two door), which led to me realising half-way through driving for another errand that I wasn't getting any back support, and while I fixed it at the next set of traffic lights that was too late to prevent back-ache setting in, and settling down for the rest of the day. Grrr!
I'm off to Durham in the morning. LNER (ex-Virgin ECML)'s half-assed system where you buy a ticket, then contact them to find out if the wheelchair seat is available had the ultimately inevitable happen and all three wheelchair spaces on my booked service turn out to be already full. So I'm travelling on an earlier train than my ticket is for, with a note from Passenger Assistance saying "it's not his fault". Double Grrr!
I'd really prefer not to be travelling, too much time away from home turns out to mess me up, and this year has been bad for that - it's going to be around 3 months by the end of the year, but I plan to try and use it to get back into the habit of writing daily, as I'm usually on my own quite a lot of the time I'm up there, though with my sister on holiday from school that may be less than usual.
Have some disability poetry: (as in, by disabled poets, and mostly about disability).
There's probably other stuff I can't think of right now, but I need to get myself moving and organising for tomorrow.
