Again

And today I walked to bed for my nap with no walky-stick or wheely-chair. I can and I will, getting better

Glug glug

And I went swimming again today, with Paul and Dicky as they needed to show each other how to take care of me etc. It went well again, walking is so easy underwater, well nearly underwater

Feeder

And when I got back from gym today there was a card thru the door. "We tried to deliver but you weren't here, in post office after 3pm". So we went along and there was the makings of a bird feeder which my brother sent over for me

Gyming

And I went to the gym s'morning. As had been decided last week I got pushed into the building then stood up and walked the rest of the way. With no walky stick today. Apparently I have won on that leaning over to one side thingie. But it is still very hard work, but I managed. So tomorrow it will be a little easier etc

Clap Hands

And as I am at an excellent folk club tonight I need reminding. After each song I am tapping my left hand on the table "No Neil you can clap again". I have been able to clap for 2 or 3 weeks, after 9 years of not being able to. I just can't recall

Freebie

And as recommended by Denyse I managed to get a free copy of a book about making the brain get better. I haven't read any yet but it may be useful tomorrow etc

Folking

And I am gonna go out Folking tonight because it is way too boring just being indoors here

And loadsa folks said "Missed you" etc so perhaps Burry Port should be more on my list...

And I told 'em another "poem"

Exercises

And as I did my exercises s'afternoon we did mainly stretch hand/fingers exercises. Talk about being better? Yes, I am still rubbish with my right hand but a lot less rubbish that last month

Lost Sum Weight

Well, last night I was weighed again and this week I have lost 2 lbs. Slowly but surely, at least I lost some

Cold

And it was so cold in here s'morning that the heating switched itself on. It has switched off now but it was on first thing

Shopping

So me and Ed nipped to Morrison's, got the shopping, tried some potato waffles and another kind of frozen spud that isn't an oven chipas we are trying to broaden my diet

And they were actually quite good

More Watching

And we are actually watching telly again

No, I got bored with it before the end and switched off

Japflacks

And I asked a MOS "Why do I have eg oats etc" and they said "For making flapjacks, they are not as fattening as many snacks" so gosh, yes, I recall now. So when I have finished this weeks treat I might have to make some

More Watching

And I watched more kids telly tonight

Red

And as I found loads of episodes on Dave ch 19 I am currently watching Red Dwarf

SKYPEing

And I had a brief Skype call with my brother today, just as practice, but it went OK

Banker

So we had to nip into the bank to pay in the cheque my Dad had sent for Toby's birfday, I put cash in his birfday card in exchange. I was nervous but it went OK and it seems to be in my account

Not tomorrow, tonight!!!

Were going out tonight and oops, tonight it is on, not tomorrow

And it was excellent. Clive played loads, I read out 3 poems and it was just generally excellent

Shaving

And I had another shave with a proper razor s'morning. And today, as advised by Ed, I moved the razor down, rather than up on my neck. And good lord, a much closer shave there, good call Ed

Poohing Today

And I woke up s'morning, felt it and thought "First?" but squeezed it and ate sum breakfast before going to t'loo
