I like to Booby

Alternative title to this story is I touch my staff but if I use that I would probably loose my everyone that helps me, They are all like family. Its a bloody good pun though,

When you are blind or very short sighted, you have to be careful with your hands. Every parent knows what its like when they go to the bathroom, they have an audience my kids just happen to have paws. Before I lost the majority of my sight, there where many times I was sat on the toilet where I leant down to give somebody a scratch, Five minutes later I realised that I was scratching the toilet bowl. When I lost the majority of my sight, there were many occasions that I would have tried to grab something such as my cup and actually grabbed somebody's boob or ass, my poor aunt Bernie is still traumatised .

During the time I had my eye surgically closed, I couldn't see a thing. Every time I was trying to get out of my bed, I kicked my dad straight in his balls. He would end up on the floor and  he was supposed to be helping me get out of the bed, creating a situation where we had to help each other!

As it was Christmas time and I love a good joke, I gave him a huge cardboard box inside there was a gift box. Inside that, there was gift bag with a gift box like Russian dolls and inside the last gift box there was a jockstrap ( sportsman's protection for the nuts) and one cigarette to numb the pain when he opened it. His face was priceless (so I'm told)  so then I said ah dad im only joking here is the rest of your cigs , I'm still messing. I gave him his real present (model car).

The moral of the story is be careful what you scratch

Life Under the Knife

Hello, is it fun you're looking for? I suppose I'd better explain myself before things get weird. < Last year I was in hospital for over 3 months. My Dad visited me every day with coffee and cakes (thank you Dad)!!!. We were chatting one day when I said "Do you remember people telling Mam that she should write a book?" ( sadly she took the stairway to heaven 3 years ago). I said to my Dad "Can you imagine the book we could have written together?" You see the condition that we both suffer from is called Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2). We were both in and out of hospital pretty much all of our lives. I was thinking to myself that I don't have enough for a book, but maybe a blog. The craziest things happen to me and around me. What's one thing I do have? Stories so crazy, they'd make you question reality. I was pretty much completely blind, so I had nothing to do but think. I tried to remember the 20 years worth of stories and I have a me...

Breakfast at Elizabeth's

I had your average childhood but I didn't have your average granny! She was famous for three things: the cardigans she knit, her big heart and the fact she was the biggest messer going! I lived around the corner from her so I spent a lot of time in her house. That said, even the cousins that lived far away spent all their time there too. We had two types of sleepovers in her house, sleeping in the front room in a normal fashion where you woke up with somebody's foot in your face  - you were luck it was a foot! or sleeping in the back garden in a tent where nanny would come out and chuck a glass of water into the tent her version of a wake up call! There were so many water fights in her house, usually started by her. She was throwing party balloons filled with water before water balloons were a thing. She'd whip out the garden hose at a moments notice or feck a glass of water out the kitchen door as we sunbathed in the back garden. We all wanted to go to her house to play ...

Go ahead, bake my cake

Alcohol comes with a warning on the bottle, baking supplies do not (probably should). In a parallel universe, a carer was asked to bake a cake, a delicious recipe for a irish bomb cake was supplied (for those who are curious: chocolate cake batter with Guinness stout in it, irish whiskey ganache in the centre and baileys buttercream icing! You haven't lived until your taste buds explode with this cake). Some carers should come with a warning too (!) We needed a birthday cake, who doesn't need a bit of cake from time to time?! Normally when you blow out the candles, you share out the cake. In this case, when the candles were blown out, we had to get out a hand saw! Even the hand saw got stuck in the cake. The question is was it a cake or a homemade brick?! Irish car bomb cake is supposed to be explosive, this cake wouldn't explode anything but you could definitely use it as a weapon by throwing it at somebody. The recipe was for cupcakes, and somebody forgot to increase ...
