Shopping And....

Then we nipped to Waverley stores s'morning then nipped to the post office to get a redirect mail form, as we are doing it like this it is proving cheaper than doing it online, which wouldn't work as my bank card address is different than mine now

Then later s'afternoon we nipped back to Shaws the Drapers and bought a blackout thingie which they ordered for us

Back To Normal

So I am back to normal now, someone every f**king day

Crisis

Last night I tried to put my arm splint on but a bit of it has broken off

Ssssh

I am finding it really hard not to talk about my disaster on Ixion

Or when u r unconscious for months in hospital, like I was

Strange Memory

I was reading Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows again tonight and it mentioned the Peveralls (noisy) but I thought Peveril Of The Peak, pub in Manchester and Google says I was right. How strange, I have no memory of drinking there but I must have walked past it on the way somewhere else 20 years ago

Help

Well today, for the first time in ages, no MOS will come and help me. Fair enough. But what is their first duty every day? To tighten up my shoelaces and to tighten up, put on properly, my splint. But no-one here today so I had to ask a member of Leonard Cheshire staff to help......

But what is there to do all day? I can look out the window, go sit out the front, go sit out the back....

Neighbours

Gosh, I can't wait to see one of my female new neighbours, hopefully with said chap attached, when I see them I will say "Gosh, god said 'Love thy neighbour, wow, I think I might have it easy'"

Busy Day

Gosh then we nipped out and it started being well busy etc. First of all we went to the mobility place in Carmarthen to get a new loo seat but we got there at about 12.15 and the sign said "Closing at 12 on Saturday"

Then we went to Curry's to buy a selection of phones for the new place, every room shall have 1, all linked to the same land line but if someone in room 1 wants to speak to room 2 they simply press 2 and it rings differently, just in room 2

Then we loaded Paul's van up and headed back to Herbie The House with another load. Then we came back here for lunch.

Then we loaded more in the van and went to Herbie via a curtain shop where we were able to buy white blackout things to make my curtains work etc and we also nipped into Tesco's and bought some more effective Hayfever remedy. At last we went back to Herbie with a load of bits from the kitchen etc and made up the spare bed for the first time with the duvets etc we bought last night and today

In The Sky With Diamonds

This morning Paul said "We need to go and buy a Lucy..."

"A Lucy?" I said

A "Loo seat" he repeated

Hidden

And when I woke up s'morning I had a song going thru my head...

"Ooooh weeeeee ooooooh,
the brighter the stars in disguise...."

They must be hidden...

Weary 27

Aargh, then after buying stuff we came here and faffed for a bit then went out to Tesco again looking for more furniture for my new house to no avail, then went to Waverley stores and did shopping and met up with Freya, who we took out for dinner as my head is in bits mid move, then we took her over to Herbie where her and Paul spent hours putting together new desks and unwrapped a new filing cabinet etc

Busy

Then after shopping that Toby chap had to come and move some heavy furniture with us

More Shopping

Good lord, this morning we were off buying more furniture and then we came back here and loaded a wardrobe from here too, so the van is looking a bit full ATM

Cleverer

That Sam has just emailed me, he got a first in his degree, so phd seems to be calling.......

Nooneraft

What an afternoon. First of all I went to gym where it was really strange talking to stroke victims who are a lot less mobile than me about how I used to be a lot less mobile then they are now, but just keep at it. I did and look how well I am now.

Then we nipped to supermarket, bought some blueberries and salad and a pint of milk to leave in my bungalow because we were going there to wait, so we may as well have a brew

THEN the representative of the bath lift supplier was coming out to try one in my bath, rather he was coming to fit one and let me try it. Just good lord, I immediately bought one off him and want to use it

Morning

So s'morning we have creamed my feet, tried to set up a mail redirection service with Royal Mail which refuses to accept my card so a bit stuck. Ed is currently in the garden trying to beat the melted plastic off the rest of my oven

And he has just about finished nearly all the plastic is off, about 98% so not too bad. As I will be leaving here in about a week I am not too bothered

Pi##ing

So here I am sitting in a Folk Club tonight, it is about 10.50 and I haven't had a piss since I left my house hours ago

Oven Crisis

So tonight I switched on't oven and want to bed for ½ on hour to nap. Got up, opened the oven to put food in and UGH. It looks like a small piece of plastic was sitting on the top shelf and had melted and dripped down making a stuck-on mess on all the shelve and a bigger mess of the bottom.

More Purchasing

Then later today we went and tried out a Bath-Lift which seemed really comfortable, but he is bringing it to my new home to try tomorrow afternoon, then we will decide yeah or nay

And we bought a posh armchair too, it raises electrically etc

Meeting

So there is no-one here to look after me s'morning as they are all having a meeting "about me". They will be here after lunch
