It has been a bloody bad twelve months - and the people I care about most must have ended up thinking very badly of me because of it.
Voluntary work, etc. has near-certainly gone (so have perhaps 99% of my "network", C19 and the rest of the sodding mess has changed things for us all.)
Anyway, it looks as though much of it's housing conditions, (two bad floods, the damage the floods did - including to my allergies - carbon monoxide leak almost certainly combined with ordinary household gas leak that the company was searching for before the monoxide leak was found. [At least 5 years of no wheelchair/scooter access followed by lock-downs.] Central heating switched off, etc. etc. [Plus housing crooks - effectively inevitable in this borough and never wound an enemy.])
Continual physical injuries and illness - probably feverish from maybe October, too ill for innoculations until just before Christmas. C19 inoculation 2nd May, stranded in hospital, unknown fever almost immediately (possible cross-infection?), complications from different, existing illness, ill until at least mid-June, with further serious flood and damage 31st May (and too ill to cope with insurance or even realise how much time was passing) and I hadn't really recovered when this lot started!
Events have been complicated and overwhelming over the whole period - I mean for most of the twelve months (but I also wasted time, at the start - don't do that again!)
I don't know if any of all this muddle is age-related - it's certainly not the first time I've needed to look for evidence, etc. to work out WTF happened! It's not even the first time this century. (Also, I was taking 25 pills a day, plus an injection, while on those antibiotics - some with food, one fasting, all needing to be spaced and timed appropriately by me alone - but while being continually interrupted. That's probably a Darwinian survival test of mental capacity in its own right!)
Anyway, I must do what I can while I can - "for I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep".
