Toby

Then we had lunch while waiting for Toby who was due to contact the college, but he didn't come until after the man he was trying to contact had gone out.

Later, after he had left, my phone rang and it was the chap from the college wanting to tell Toby "Good news" so I will have to contact him tomorrow

Pink

And while I was at Hygienist someone delivered my new hand-luggage for the plane, a Pink Rucksack

Hygenist

So this morning me and Paul and Timmy went to the hygienist at the dentist and had her clean my teeth big style. She commented on how much better they look than last month when I saw her so obviously I am doing summat right

Exhausted

Well phew, today's over now

So s'morning I went to the gym and did loadsa exercises, with the woman I was s'posed to see on Thursday as the other one was off sick. But she will be off on Thursday so..... In the course of our exercises I stood up from normal chair without using my hands at all, I just properly stood up

Then later that Freya came in and had a good session mainly chatting with my MOS.

She also met Tim, my new MOS who is having a "being carried" week

Napless

And as we had such a busy day today I had no chance for a nap, I tried to nap in the car coming home but I couldn't really. I sort of half napped and by god but I can feel it now.

"Early to bed, early to rise, healthy, wealthy, wise"

Shop, late

Then after my usual dinner time we were finally able to go to Morrison's and get the weeks shopping

Visitor

When we were briefly in the house there was a knock on the door and it was that Toby chap on his new bike, which he had got from a "do up an old bike" place for free and he has done a good job making it look posh once more. He said that he was interviewed at college s'morning and basically they said "F. off looser, no place for you on A level course any more" but they did say "We will redecide next year" and he has the rest of the year to learn skills like metalworking or summat. I think he sounded reasonably positive about the future, so wait and see now

Lunch

So this morning all 3 of my MOS came round and we all set off for Cardiff. When we arrived there a couple of hours later Denyse came and met me and we went to a pub for lunch. All other 3 went off to the cycling practice place which was why we were here and learned how to accompany me while I sat and talked about me getting better with that Denyse lass. Eventually they came back, we all talked for a bit then said "Ta ra" and we headed west again

Eating Alone

And I was supposed to have dinner with Toby tonight but he didn't come here and his phone is lost so I can't get hold of him

Well his mum contacted me and brought him round later, oh god what a life he has

Loadsa Sleep

Well I had an extra hour in bed last night, woke up, got up, lay back down then then went back to sleep for a bit

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
