Fixed

And after looking at the Interweb after I went to bed last night I must say that my new device is so much quicker that my mini-laptop which was there before

Drowning

And yes, we have drowning on my timetable s'morning...
And we went, I didn't drown, I was able to stand on just my right foot for 30 seconds (just once but I did it), I was able to do some hopping on my right foot that I havent managed for a number of years etc. But when we got out there was somebody in the big disabled changing room and the drain in the smaller one was broken so it was full of mucky water from next door.
But we managed, had an effective exercise session
But today, swimming on my back it feels much better/easier kicking with my right foot/leg

Strange (But busy [and productive]) Morning

Well, so s'morning TerribleTimmy took on board his role as a techno-geek. First of all we took down the broken telly and put it in my bedroom, where the iPad was. Then we nipped into the office and got my old PC and combined the two together
Then we drove to that SHHHH... Tesco's place and bought a new telly for my living room (cost only a hundred quid, I think it's not too dear, and it plays DVD's too) and some speakers so I can actually put music on my bedroom PC
Then we nipped to gym and did some exercises, then came home for lunch.
But we had to put the new telly in place and the
speakers in t'other room before I could stop and eat

Once More

Yes, it's white with frost again

Reading

And I have got right into reading my Kindle again, summat I haven't dun for a couple of weeks and while I am really enjoying the story every 3 or 4 minutes I need to think "Enuf" and turn it off for 5 minutes or so.
I can't just read it.....

'Wimming

Then when we came back from there we went off swimming. Afterwards I was thinking that..... SHH..... it wasn't as unpleasant as usual. We had a different routine with the towels this time and it meant I could get more properly dried etc. and we got the big changing room which makes "it" much easier

More Reason's To Shop At.....

And we had to do a sneaky extra trip to Morrison's s'morning to fetch a (few) new light bulb, the lamp by my bed blew last night and we couldn't find a replacement. I think there was one that was nearly the same size so someone must have bought it by mistake, the prongs were about 1mm longer than the one that fitted

Frosty

And it was well frosty s'morning (although the heating did work) I took this picture after I had got up, eaten breakfast etc, it still looked frosty half an hour (or more) later

Samwise

And it was nice to see him, he talked about the past and the future and how he expects me to call him Doctor after he gets his PHD next year etc

Another Busy Sunday

Tra la la, so "we" will nip to Morrison's (noisy link) later and buy bread rolls etc, then Alex can make my bed then..... then....
And that Sam chap is coming over at lunchtime which will be good

Interesting Fact:

In France 'Builder's Bum' is referred to as 'Plumber's Crack'

The weather

So today the weather has been sunshine, heavy rain half an hour later and it is now sunny again. And as it is November I have had to take off my jacket, just wearing a t shirt now
Now it's almost cloudless blue sky, 4 hours after the rain storm....

How Sick Am I

Sorry for being a bit depressing but......
So I had my accident 11½ years ago and in the last couple of years I have got so much better that now I am living here (out of an institution) with 24 hour a day carers, never to be left alone. 
So how sick must I have been 11½ years ago when I have no memory of events

It's OK, I am feeling a bit more cheerful s'evening, I am not thinking about that quite so much

Head down - eating

And I was happily munching away at my breakfast when it occured to me that I had to learn certain rules for holding my head in a certain position for swallowing etc, but I don't even need to think about them now, it has just become a habit

Rainy

And we were supposed to go out tonight to The Parrot in Carmarthen for it's reopening night but the weather doesn't seem very good so p'raps not tonight

Pizza With No Chips

So I am making pizza for tea tonight but as we had curry and chips a few nights ago I will have to have it with sweet potato oven chips instead
And no garlic tonight, I forgot, but it was still delicious

Gyming

And later we went to my weekly gym class. The weather had kept many participants off but I went. It was as good as ever, I can really see how much better I am getting when I am there

Shopping

So we did the usual buying organic goods s'morning, it went well, they had some shorter date stuff but upon looking behind this it was all buyable with long enuf dates. I took my 'chair to the shop with me but left it in the car as we parked 15 yds away.
When we came back I said "Bring it in" but didn't use it, just put all the various kinds of shopping away on my own two feet

Unexpected

And he phoned me from his Mum's (he's down helping her move) but I am meeting that Toby chap later today

VBG

And we saw him s'morning, he looks better than he has for ages etc, but he wasn't sure yet if he will be able to come here for Christmas, he won't know 'til next week when "work" tell 'em

But as I walked into the restaurant at lunchtime and sat on a proper chair,
my wheelchair stayed in the boot, I didn't have to go to gym.
But I have a proper class on a Friday, tomorrow
They are not supposed to....
