Buying

Then we went out and I paid for everyone's dinner, 5 of us, me, my parents, Ian and Hannah. But it was delicious at Tafarn Tanerdy

Gym

Then we all headed out to gym, I was getting on, again so improving then half way thru the class my mum went downstairs to meet Ian and Hannah and brought them up to watch. Again as I havent seen them for some months they commented on how much I am improving

Aardvarking

So me and GGtGG went into Aardvark, met my parents there and bought loads of stuff, including some extras that will be used next month as my parents were buying

Last Night's Crisis

Then last night I got a bit fed up with my bedroom monitor slipping, so I pulled off the external piece, it stopped monitoring. So s'morning after I had eaten my toast (no muesli left) I had to go "TIMMY....." but Tim'll'fix'it fixed it so I don't need to go shopping for a new monitor

Late

And my parents have been delayed a bit at airport so they won't be to Carmarthen for a couple of hours so they will just go to the hotel and txt me from there then when I have bathed and napped I can contact them
Well they arrived after nap time, came here for a look around then we all went off to their hotel and had dinner and it was lovely.

Where is it?

And where is the missing King of Diamonds?

Gymming It

So me and Timmy went gymwards s'morning, I protested loads but no, we were going. AGAIN I am getting so much better at some of the exercises

Lordy

This upset me somewhat today. We have such an easy life here.......

Parents Coming

So my parents are on their way over today followed tomorrow by my brother-in-law and neice
Hooray...

Out

And we went out s'evening to just re-explore some places for me, so we went to Cross Hands and where there used to be a different cheapskate supermarker there is now a Lidl. We had a look around and I must say crazy stock they had and potatoes and beans etc

'Wimming Wednesday

Hooray, we are off in a bit.....
And NO, we got there, peeked inside and it was full of kids as it was raining outside so we said "Naah" and GGtGG went back to the car and put my bag back in the boot then came back in and took me to gym
But the one lesson we learned, after 10 mins on the bike it was hurting my right toes, I was just wearing sandals, I need trainers

Kitchen Floor Tiles

After the performance with trying to find a similar kitchen tile colour Alex nipped to the garage looking for summat else today and came back in with one of the two boxes of tiles he had found in the corner.
Oops

Wilko

So we went to Wilko s'morning and shopped for chest cream, mouthwash and flossy sticks. I walked in and out etc then we went off to gym and did 20 minutes on the bike.
I had said "can we just walk as I have already walked around the shop?" but someone objected and said "No, you missed gym yesterday, you need to get back on track" so I went to gym and 20 minutes on a "bike"

Wedi Gorffen

Wow, he's done it all

Dentist

And 10 minutes after he finished the floor it was time to head Dentistwards, where she was pleased with how good my teeth are after electric toothbrush, floss and mouthwash
I did walk down the stairs to get in, having left my 'chair in't car, and I walked back up the stairs when leaving.  That is so much easier every time I do it 

Walkies Under Pressure

So me and Timmy had to nip to B&Q to pick up cement &... so he could stick the kitchen tiles down again, where they started coming up last night. We drove to B&Q, he got my wheelchair out, and pushed it alongside me all the way in, 23 of the way back to find the gubbins we needed, I walked back to the till, paid and walked all the way back to the car, I didn't need my wheelchair at all
I can now hear bang bang bang as Timmy gets up the tiles to recement them down
And that broke some of the tiles, we need to go back and replace them 
Wow. So we went back to B&Q but they had almost no coloured tiled so we nipped to Tile&Bath Co where we bought an...... a close, noticeable different but it is close. Timmy has been bang banging etc, got the site cleaned etc and has just started to lay. At a guess he should be finished about 5 minutes before I need taken to Dentist
What a morning, my timetable looked empty but this filled it up

New Date

And Denyse said in an email s'morning, "I am due to meet you same day as your parents coming over, shall we meet next week instead?" and as I can't insist my parents come the following week instead I'd better say yes

Hooray

Got the dentist today.
Checkup so shouldn't be too stressful....

Early Cooking

So s'morning I bought the last few ingredients as recommended by Julia (who I used to cook it for/with) so early s'afternoon I got stuck into cooking from scratch a pasta accompaniment. After my nap I will add some lentils, cooked sum pasta to go with and grate sum cheese then we will have a lovely dinner
Yes we did, what a difference lentils and bouillon make, it was lovely
And what a difference getting better makes. The pasta finished cooking, I walked from the front of the cooker to the sink to drain it, carrying it with both hands, no walking stick, no FES, I just manage it these days

Shop

So me and GGtGG went shopping s'morning as Timmy whose working tomorrow doesn't approve of Morrison's. We did our bit, went to about 27 other shops looking for salad cream sachets, couldn't find any. In the end we went back to Morrison's bought 1 mushroom for tonight's dinner and a small tube of salad cream
Why?
Well in the past, for about 20 years I had a cheese and salad cream sandwich most lunchtimes. Everything changed after my accident but I have settled down to having a small bread roll and a small piece of ready to eat cheese for lunch, with no salad cream. Until today, you could hear the noise as I tasted my favourite lunchtime snack....
