Clock

So I was looking at the clock by my bed in order to change it. On the top is a button marked DST so I tried and pressed it, it said "On", I pressed it again and it changed to "Off" and my clock will be right tomorrow. As easy as that

Washing

So it sez in my diary "change sheets" as usual, once a fortnight, on Monday. But as we will be out at Cardiff all day Monday I thought "Better do it tomorrow" but more thoughts about this there will be a queue as I change and wash my clothes tomorrow. So I had to say to a MOS that I usually take the sheet off and a MO my S puts the new sheet etc on, so could he help. All done and dusted.
And I was a bit impressed with how well he put on the quilt cover etc, then it occurred to me, that must be 50% of his sad job.

Dull

Nowt to do today

Listen

And today I had an explore in Julia's CD that she made for me entitled "Stuff Neil used to listen to" and I found a folder marked "Harvey Andrews". Good lord, I haven't listened to this for X years but wow, it is excellent

Spending

Well s'morning Small Paul came, did paperwork for a bit, then took me to the swimming pool. But it's half term so it was much too busy for us. After a bit of a performance we went and had a lunch outside Greggs Bakers in Carmarthen. Then as we had nowt to do until I went and did my shopping later we went out Christmas Shopping. Gosh it was hectic but I thing we got about 70% of my list so.... busy, hectic but good.

Later still we went to Waverley Stores where I didn't need as much this week as usual but we did it.

Iechyd Da

And we went to the monthly folk club tonight, me, Freya and Little Paul to drius there and back. It was an excellent night out

Nappy

So I am off to bed for ¾ of an hour then get up, greet Freya and go to Iechyd Da folk club

Gyming

Well I went to the gym with Sam today, I did the walking machine and an extra minute on the cycling machine. But the walking wasn't working very well as my right foor was trying to turn over loads every step. But "they" said that when I have me new splint it won't do that "at all" so impatience now

Scales

And I went to town with Ed in my "supposed to be there" time and bought some kitchen scales. I was a bit worried that I wouldnt be able to read the dials but we got a modern digital version

Confusion

So they emailed me yesterday afternoon when I was out and I didn't get back until after they had gone home but as I was about to leave for CAVS today they emailed me and said "No can do this morning. Afternoon?", I said "No gym" and we left it at that, they will phone me tomorrow and arrange a different day to work for them

Caking

Then Sarah the OT came round with a big bag of goodies, most of which is now in a tin sitting on the shelf in my kitchen to be shaken every day for another week. The ingredients for my christmas cake, we started it today

Pictures

And the "Neil's Pictures" folder on my PC was getting a bit large so I got them together and put them on 3 CD's. No index or sorted out but there is a rough date

Hoist Service

And the gentleman came to service my bedroom hoist this morning. I said "But U have lived here for 18 months and I have never had to use that" but he had to check and test it

Unnapped

And because I was distracted today I didn't have a nap. And now, at 7 o'clock, I can really feel the difference. I am falling asleep now

Jackery

And as I was bored today I went to the kitchen and made some more flapjacks. They are very nice but I am a bit stuck on one issue. Some of them are too crumbly, but how can I tell that from mixing the mixture?

Aargh

And Paul has just phoned me, he has broken down on his way here. Should I scream or shout or.....
(sigh)
Haven't heard from him for a couple of hours but he has phoned the gym and told 'em no can do today

Ybot

And Toby came round tonight. I felt a bit..... sheepish because I felt the need to say boring parent stuff but I hope for the best.
And I told him to come here on the 5th November when I will be away in order to have 2 women talk to him about me and my issues

Right Shoe

And it feels nearly as tight as the left today.... so obviously summat is improving
