Lunchtime Gym

Then we went back to gym, we told Sam that I couldn't do various stuff (1) but I still didn't rest for an hour
(1) Because of my infected foot

Morning, what a

And Timmy moved one desk into the others place s'morning. Had to unplug everything and feed it back through the small "cable tidy" holes. Phew it looks loads better now

Phew

And my swollen leg looks still a bit swollen but much smaller today

What A Day

What a day #27
First of all s'morning we drove to Swansea and was fitted with my new FES. It seems impressive if a little complex. HTF that Paul can pass on details of how it fits etc
Then we rang the Doctors to make an emergency appointment for later as my foot was swollen again
Then we came back here and had lunch, during which the chappy phoned me from the desk sellers to say "It's here"
So after lunch we headed over to get the desk, me riding in Paul's van. Which I can now get in and out of without a breeze block to get up on
Then we took his van with desk in t'back to Drs, sat in his waiting room for 3/4 of an hour, told them about the swelling etc and they gave me more antibiotics for a f***ing week.
Then Julia phoned me to say that Freya was upset that I wasn't going to Iechyd Da tonight, she thought I was being selfish but I actually haven't had time for a nap today etc

A Smidge Excited

So I came out of the kitchen into my living/computer room after tea and as I caught site of tomorrows excitement I nearly cried

X-r-cise

And I finished the day off (1) with an hour in't gym, doing treadmill, cycling, weights and more treadmill, to get my fitness up.
(1) It was dark when we came out at a quarter to five, the day was finished

Poohing

Yes, Neil, just because you are aware of needing a pooh it doesn't mean now. Like you realised 3/4 of an hour ago when you thought "Oh..." and you still haven't been...

On It's Way

My new PC is on it's way, apparently.....
And gosh it arrived. I am leaving the box unopened 'til TechnoTimmy comes in tomorrow but it is here now

Busy Busy Day

First of all the chap came to fix my 'chair. He said "Erm..." but figured out how to do it. And he told us how to tighten the wheel when it comes off
Then we went to Morgan&Morgan and got a new desk. They said they will phone me on Thursday if it arrives then me and Paul can take his van to the shop and pick it up. Hopefully
Then Sara came to gym with me and said "Do this, try this...." had a conference with Sam and so on
Then we came back here for a late lunch, bath and nap
And then (more hopefully) we are heading oner to Staples in Swansea to pick up a 2 drawer filing cabinet, which may fit under the desk
And it is still only half past two!!!
And yes, we did head over to Swansea in the end, then got stuck in rush hour traffic big style, but when we finally reached the shop (in panic mode, it was so late) it turns out that it was open 'til 8pm anyway. But we did the business and purchased a filling cabinet which is currently next to my desk but hopefully it will fit under the new one, which we are hopefully getting on Thursday. My new PC is arriving tomorrow and......

index.html

And I finally got index.html right, it now has big name at the top and the whole picture on screen, and a gap at the top. I think it is best, because I made the print bigger etc then made the top level, just a gap, much smaller size than the rest. OK, it might not make much sense reading this but it works for me. Text with a space above and the rest of the page fits in one screen

Fredumpkins

So Freya came over tonight to see me and for tea.
She arrived 10 minutes before I got up from nap but watched telly 'til I got up
And she felt ill tonight so we had to take her home even before Gareth had done the washing up

More Reasons

And then s'morning we had to nip to Currys to pick up anti virus super stuff for my new PC then we nipped to Morrisons as I am way busy tomorrow, with the wheelchair fixer coming followedby the physio who is coming to an extra gym session with me

Poohing

So s'morning I was about to have breakfast when I thought "Ooh, dilemma, do I need to have a pooh first or second?" In the end I thought that perhaps I would be able to eat my muesli, leave my coffee in the pot then have a pooh. But I actually ate my muesli, had my coffee, had a few (loosing) games of Solitaire, then came in and sat at my 'puter. It is now 10.30 and I haven't been for a pooh. I think I am relearning how it feels when I need one, not just "Now" like I have been feeling for some years.
I only learned how to feel like this with pissing (well to realise that I did) a few weeks ago

Mending

So in amongst all the other stuff yesterday I bought another mending kit and when I was in the bath&bed Timmy got stuck in and mended the hole that was appearing in my big warm fleece

Out

And we went out for dinner, to Frankie and Bennys in town as we both had fiver off tickets
And we bumped into Freya on the way, on her way to the cinema to see Dr Who.....

Timmy

So s'morning me and Timmy have to buy a PC online, go to shops to buy anti-virus etc.
BUT FIRST I have to make my new camera connect to the PC via WIFI
No joy on the connecting to the PC thing, there is a phone line open Mon-Fri so we will have to contact them next week
But as I am having a new PC in the next few days, wait and see
BUT we did manage this buying the PC thingy, gosh we spent loads and loads

Rugby

And we went to the pub tonight and it was rather full as Wales beat Tonga at the game of rugby
Which was nice to watch (even tho most points were scored in the first half before we arrived)

Gymming

And we (me and Ed) went to gym over lunchtime. Today I  did not have my splint on my leg so I had to extra concentrate but it just about worked.
Extra concentration with every step but I managed.
Until the very last step of the class an hour later

Aardvarking

So first thing s'morning me and Ed went and didn't buy as much as last week at Aardvark. Again I walked in until we were cuing to pay at which poing Ed brought my 'chair in the shop.
I did have a conversation with the owner about how last week there was a chap walking down the slope while I was waiting at the bottom and he said, in passing, "What a struggle it is without a handrail" so she said "OK, I will ask the builder instead of my husband..." so wait and see now
