😳😳😳 Oops! In what seems like “a blink of the eyes” it’s been about two weeks since my last post on here! 😱
A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😱
Little Miss Distracted has been VERY distracted! With one thing or another & I just lost track of how long it’s been! 😳🙄
First off, my sleeping pattern is completely off & I’ve kept trying these last two weeks to get it back to no avail so, just sleeping WHEN I can; no matter the time of day!
I’m actually about to go to bed now & remembered you lovely lot & decided to post before I get distracted & forget again! 🙄
I’ve been frantically trying to get my body clock back in time for The Open at St Andrews starting tomorrow but, “No Can Do!” Not at this last minute late hour! I’ll just watch it live when I can & sleep through what I can’t! 🙄
I’ve had my PIP form though the post, had it filled in with the case worker’s help, posted off a few days ago & just await the verdict & before that, another accessor to follow up my answers on the form before getting any PIP payments every month if they decide I qualify?
My menopausal cycles have been all over the place which hasn’t helped the sleeping situation as every time I get close to a “normal day!” it comes along & makes me more tired & the body clock just goes out the window!
I’ve been watching a lot of tv shows at odd hours through the day, & at night, when I’m awake & only the midday alarm for tresiba & pills is a daily constant!
I just finished watching an absolute GEM of a Chinese historical drama on Amazon Prime video that’s been low key due to a young cast of unknown rookie actors that was only 25 episodes long since Sunday & LAUGHED SO MUCH at both the leading female & male leads! “Love Story of Court Enemies” that was shown in China in 2020 & been on Amazon prime since April 2021: it’s been sitting on my watch list for AGES before I got around to watching it; put on the list at the same time as “The Rebel Princess” & just didn’t think it could be up to The Rebel Princess & the legendary Zhang Ziyi at the time! Indeed it isn’t BUT, it’s a gem nonetheless that I’ve been enjoying a lot! 😛 AND I watched it REALLY fast: all 25 episodes in 2 days; rewatched it all now 4 or 5 times since! It’s just as well my hearing of Mandarin has come along in leaps & bounds now as “my goodness!” the female lead speaks it at “a million miles an hour” AND I can STILL hear it & hardly need the subtitles which are SO American in flavour, they were too in TRP, it makes me laugh but, you get the context & meaning across fast to keep up with how fast the actress says her dialogue! 😱
It was such a romantic, comedic story line that I just assumed it’s fiction but, it’s actually based on historical facts. About the only civilian princess of the Qing dynasty who started of as a lowly cook at the Imperial kitchens of the Forbidden City! Then became an Imperial doctor at the Imperial Hospital who married a palace guard & bodyguard to the Emperor. They were both allowed to leave the palace after he adopted her as his daughter & gave her the title of a princess as the couple roamed over China practicing her medicine as they went! Cooking & medicine were akin to each other as in those times it was herbal medicine & both needs a very good “nose” for the ingredients to make good food & good medicine!
The lead actress just makes this drama portraying a historical figure that was SO far ahead of her time! 😛😎 Who speaks as fast she thinks!😱
I highly recommend it if you have Amazon prime or you can watch it for free on youtube though, the sound is a bit dodgy in some episodes on youtube AND you may need to rewind a lot as the dialogue is SO fast! 😎
Now that I’ve started posting again I’ll try & keep it up despite being distracted by the golf from tomorrow on! 🙄
