Bathies

And I had another bath tonight. Good lord, can I be this clean?? All went well, with my new bath rack stopping me having to stretch to put soap down etc. All went well until I let the water out, pressed up, got about half way up and stopped going. I had to shout "Help" until Ed came and fixed it, luckily he managed and didn't have to lift me out but the whole thing was unsettling

Walking

So this morning I got up and walked into the kitchen pushing my new pushable chair, then pushed it into dining room etc. After lunch I thought "Enough walking" and sat in my wheelchair for the first time today
But it feels wrong wheeling anywhere so obviously my brain in getting better which it a first step....

More Dongling

And today we had to go to another shop in town to buy another Dongle for them to connect laptop email etc, but this time we gave the chappie the postcode here and he said "Ah you want one of these, then" so we bought it and the connection on that is nearly twice as fast as my dongle so we swapped over as they need next to no interweb connection

Shopping

Then we nipped into town for some bits for them, a dongle to connect their email etc then it occurred to me. Organic Tomato Purée, to make pizzas. Waverley Stores don't sell 'em, Morrison's don't sell 'em, Tesco's don't sell 'em, Lidl don't sell 'em etc...... we had tried every shop for miles around, apart from Aardvark. So we went there, some difficulty getting in but we managed, I asked and she supplied me. Bother, I used to work there but it is not very wheelchair friendly, so I haven't been there for months, but we did it

My First Night

Gosh, so I slept for my first night in the real world last night...... It was a but strange but that's just because I have got used to being somewhere else.... It was cool
