Had a bit of a lazy morning, just relaxing after the day before, i played on my computer whilst David and Sarah did some work. In the afternoon we went to the retail park to do some shopping, Sarah needed a new keyboard. I had a little look around Matalan whilst they went to PC World, i didn’t have long to look around but found some cute shorts and a nice little sleeveless t shirt, they’ll be ideal to slip on if we get a Summer

After there we went to Costco, we were all a bit hungry by this time so we had some pizza then David and me had ice cream and Sarah had a danish pastry, it didn’t look a lot but we were stuffed afterwards, then we went around the store. David and Sarah did some food shopping, i got myself a tower fan, something i’ve been wanting for ages so i was pleased about that. If the smell coming into my flat last week from the flat below is anything to go by i know i’m going to need it even more this year as i’ll be having to keep my windows closed. It’s enough you have your own cooking smells but someone elses greasy chips is a definite no no, besides i don’t have them at home.

On the way home we called into to see Ruth and Doug had a cup of tea then came home. We had our dinner, burgers and chicken, yum then later cheesecake and cream yum yum. David down loaded my iTunes music for me so i’m happy about that, i can play it all on my stereo now. I had a few vodkas David had his beers and we watched some tv but there wasn’t much on.

Hello Everyone, I’m staying at my brother David and Sarahs for the weekend. They came for me on Friday, i got home about 3pm so just had enough time to bath and change and get my things together.

We had a nice dinner of chicken fajitas (hope i spelt that right ) and cheesecake then just chilled out for the night, watched some tv, i had a couple of vodkas, David had some beers, i think Sarah abstained. I was very tired, my eyes were struggling to keep open, i hate that feeling but it’s something i have to suffer, part of an ongoing problem.

Yesterday i woke pretty early but at least i’d slept through the night, i tried to go back to sleep but couldn’t, then the kids came out to play, so i played on my computer. David and Sarah did a barbeque in the afternoon, Sarah went about 4:30pm to pick my sister Hazel and Chris and my niece Nicola up. It turned out to be a beautiful sunny day, which was so great being able to sit and eat outside. My sister Ruth and Doug came later as she’d been working Sarah went to pick them up about 6:30pm, and my other nieces Ashleigh came, and Kirsty but she only came for a short time. Sarah cooked a nice barbeque, sweetcorn, sausages, burgers, lamb and tuna, David made his own garlic bread so lots of garlic

Something i’m really happy about, i want to go to Poland for dental treatment, i was telling Hazel about what i want to do, she said as she’s not having a holiday this year as long as i give her plenty of notice for her to tell  her work she would come with me. So i hope when the time comes that she still can come.
Later we played on the wii, what a laugh that is, especially when you’ve had a few drinks too

I’m not sure i think it was about 10:30pm when they all left, then we went to sleep soon after.

Well since i last wrote i’ve still been having a difficult time, struggling with my fatigue, worsened by the lack of sleep due to lack of consideration from the tenants below me. I’ve been trying to keep going on 4/5 hours, i can’t do it, i need a good 7/8 hours. It’s been so bad i couldn’t see properly it was like looking through fog and by the evening like trying to peer through slits and the aching around my face and in my body is indescribable.
However, after calling into the housing office again on Thurs 8 May and explaining my problem yet again, i told the man on the desk i’d been in before and telephoned twice but noone had gotten back to me. He said he’d email, which he did while i was there and said if the manager didn’t call me to call her. I had a phone call on the following Monday, she said she’d write and call them in. I recieved another phone call on Friday 16th, she was sorry she hadn’t been in the office much but she’d be writing to them today to go see her next week. So fingers crossed and i hope there wont be any repercussions from these people.
On Friday i finally got to bed again about 11:30, i have to wait until they go quiet and i think they’ve gone to sleep. Because of the way things have been i have a constant fear i’m going to be woken just as i’m going to sleep or when i am asleep. I woke about 8am then slept again until 11am, i couldn’t believe it, the first time since they came. Either someone hit me over the head or they hit them and knocked them out cold. I still had to have a sleep later though, i was trying to watch programmes i’d recorded but i kept nodding off. so i gave in and slept for about 2 hours.

This morning i wasn’t so lucky, she woke me about 7:30am with this horrid cough she has, she sounds like a navvy, ugh yuk, she makes me ill.

Hello everyone, well again nothing exciting to report only problems i’m having. I don’t know what it is about the block i live in but save for a couple of tenants all the nut jobs come here. For ten years i had problems with the neighbour next door, he’s sick now so i never see him which is a good thing. Now i have this couple move into the flat below me, i hate them all they do is bang cupboards and doors and fight. It’s been horrendous for me since they moved in, i have to have the volume on my tv turned up most of the time to detract from the constant thudding of cupboards and doors. At night i get little rest, i can’t get to sleep before 12 midnight because they disturb me, they can’t close a door they have to bang it shut, all this booms and vibrates through my flat. I’m constantly being startled and my heart’s pounding after the shocks. Then there’s the nights i’m woken at 1 and 2 in the morning because they’re slamming and banging doors, this is the most awful and sickening way to be woken up and is very stressful  for me. Then i’m subject to the shouting and swearing then follows more door slamming. I have to be up at 6, i’m struggling on empty to get up for work let alone do my job. I complained to the city council on several occasions, but nothing happened, they gave me numbers to call but i was told it was only 24 hour Thursday - Sunday. I’ve started writing down now when these disturbances happen, the other week it was so bad my flat was shaking with the vibrations, it was awful i was lying in my bed and it was shaking. I’ve got holes in my carpet now from where i’ve hammered on the floor in anger at being woken up yet again. Our homes have been transferred now we are no longer City Council we have been taken over by Liverpool Mutual Homes, i’ve been into the offices and asked to see someone about this but was told that person was on long term sick but it would be passed on, no one called me. A  week later a man came out to see me to sign the new contract, i told him what was happening he said he’d email someone, i still didn’t hear from anyone. I called again a week later, they said they’d write to them and gave me numbers to call if there’s any more problems. Well if nothing’s done and this situation continues i’ll be seeking advice.
