What were you doing today but last year

I was very, very carefully syringing tiny amounts of tea into my Mum's mouth as dementia finally robbed her of the ability to swallow. And I was hoping it gave her some small comfort in her final days. Today, after months of procrastination, I finalised her headstone... and spilled tea all over the sofa while doing so. It seemed somewhat appropriate, given the trouble I was having with tea this time last year.

On the whole, I preferred today, despite the cold rain that's fallen for most of the day.

Tomorrow will be better. Hang on in there x
 
Like others i used my photos on my phone as i am a constant pic taker but once i have that i can picture quite a few details even what passers by were wearing and their dogs in some cases , not saying i a am a memory man or anything
 
Stuck onboard the absolute ****-box of the fleet, Al-Shamal en route from Ras Laffan, Qatar to Swinoujscie, Poland with a cargo of LNG. God how I hated that ship, as I’d been on it before in 2020, and got stuck onboard due to the pandemic. Met the daughter I should have been there for birth for when she was 2 months old thanks to my old employer lying to me.

Quit after I got off that ship in Suez on the 4th December, and left working deep sea altogether. I work in the offshore oil and gas industry now, where I do 3 weeks on/off, as opposed to doing 3-4 months on, 2-2 & 1/2 months off.
 
Checking the pics on my phone, seems I was at Mallory Park Race Circuit for their fireworks night.

Funny how much things can change in a year, don't think I'd be welcome this time after a complete breakdown of relations between our company's :p
