It has been some time since I posted an update on my wife's recovery so I thought I should rectify that. Progress is slow and sometimes it seems that she is going backwards but, for the most part, we are both being positive about the future.
Today started a new chapter as she attended her first acupuncture session. I am interested in these 'alternative' approaches and, as far as I am concerned, whether they have a direct physical effect or not, if there is no detrimental consequence, as long as the patient feels that it is helping, then it helps. My only issue is that I don't think I could have it done to me as I am the biggest wuss when it comes to needles - and I know these are very fine.
Anyway, the first session is over and the outcome seems positive in as much as she is not telling what a waste of time it was. Three more sessions to go and then, we are told, if it hasn't done any good, it never will! And so, the waiting game begins. Many hurdles still to cross but, baby steps as they say.
I may post briefly tomorrow on some (what I thought) amusing moments on press day at the Chelsea Flower Show (what a life I lead!!)

The Likeability Gene
It has often been said of certain people that they are 'likeable'. Usually this is meant as a compliment in that, whoever they come into contact with, can't help but like them. This maybe a gene or some hormone that their bodies produce but, whatever it is, in general, they are hard to dislike.
I have now come into contact with the antithesis of this type of person. I work with a chap who is instantly dislikable. He doesn't seem to have a filter on what he says and constantly sports the sort of 'eat shit' smile that makes even the most docile of people want to smash him the face. It's not as if he restricts his condescending and trite comments to those lower than he. The only time I have seen him deferential is when he is arse licking the MD.
Basically, this man makes me want to slap him every time he talks to me. I want to find a way of belittling him in front of his peers to bring him down a peg or two. Is that wrong? Especially with my usual sign off :) I fear if I write much more I could be sued for libel. I think I should stop now.
Keep loving!
