Aargh

So I was gonna come into the kitchen, I pushed my chair away from the desk, went to start pushing it in here..... No, you got a stand up and walk, that is not a moveable wheelchair

Grumpy-ness

So today I am doing that "Walk everywhere" thing again. (Which is excellent etc, I know)
BUT
Because I am walking everywhere I no longer get to think "Ahhhh, that's easier" when I get into my wheelchair for the first time, usually in the afternoon after my nap

Panic

And finishing my lunch I panicked, thought GGtGG better nip out to the car and bring my wheelchair back in. I can't have a bath without it. But after conversation I just went to the bath without it. It was hassle coming out on foot, carrying my 'pants, the tuner for the lifting me out device, my 'stick, towels etc but I managed. Only having one and a third hands that work can be such a hassle

Wheelchairless

And while I was making lunch I said to GGtGG "Take my wheelchair out of the kitchen (where it's in the way) and put it in the boot of the car". I know he will be able to fetch it back later if necessary but as I didn't use it at all last night.....

Gymless

So we headed into town first. Looked in 3 shops and eventually picked up sum new sandals as my old ones were coming undun etc.
Then we headed into swimming pool, got changed, went by the pool GGtGG went to ask the chap for the stairs device that I get down and up he replied "No, it's broken". After much humming and hawing I got half way in down the ladder but changed direction then and got back out. I didn't feel confident enough to go down the last 2 steps as I needed to be able to reverse the project. So we came back here, had lunch then I will have a proper bath and nap

'Wimming

And we need to go swimming s'morning. Hoo-fscking-ray

More Walkies

And Alex fixed it for me s'morning, carried the other chair in and put it in place so now I, hopefully, no longer need my 'chair by my bed
