She-et

Oops. Washing machine crisis. And as I can't make it to the back garden to washing line........

Not that I would be able to go out anyway

Out

So first of all we popped out and bought more coffee for the staff and more cleaning utensils. Still on the same trip we went to another shop and looked for more veg trolleys with sides etc, but they had none in this shop either.

But actually after much, many days, of looking on the interweb I tried summat odd like "food trolley shaded" instead of "food trolley" which I have been looking for, and it came up with a selection so I bought one. I hope it as effective and cleanable as.....

Found It

So I was looking at my new jeans, and actually walking on the last bit at the back and I thought "Just turn them up 2cm or so" but thread? Then I thought "There was some somewhere?" and in the second place I looked I found some, a pack.

As I proved to be rubbish at sewing MM turned them up for me

Eat...

Washing Crisis

Well I did a loads of washing last night and took the sheets off my bed s'morning to wash. But the wash from last night still wasn't dry, having been on twice. I took it out and washed the sheets, after wash and dry they were still soaking. So MM and me had to head to launderette on Lammas St and pay for it to be dried. Timmy is back on Tuesday, we can confer

Lefty

And he has won the Labour Party election. Let's see what a lefty can do......

In't Morning

So I am changing my bed tomorrow without putting up a notice saying "Change bed" like I have done for over a year. I will see if spotting the spare holder thingy will remind me

AND it did, I recalled!!!!

Gym Class

Then today I had another crowded gym class in the squash court. It went OK and I spoke to Sam half way thru and said I thought I would look in at the next class up but not for another month, when we are back in the proper gym room

Rid Of More

So then first thing we took more trousers to another charity shop. This time they reacted to me saying "Lost 4.5 stone" they said "Are u keeping it up? Will we see you again in another month"

Sentral Hotness

And when I got up yesterday and today the radiators were hot.

Obviously it is now cold enough, but it works!!!!

Red Dwarf

And tonight I am watching the first of a new series of Red Dwarf. Same cast, same sense of humour as before.

Very happy chappy

More Jeans

Today I tried on another pair of my "spare" trousers but they have a zip at the bottom, heading up the side, and this makes it impossible to roll them up if they are too long. So I have got another 3 pairs of trews to take to a charity shop mañana.

Tonight we might try that Tesco's place for more jeans

Well we done it. Last time we were shopping for trews we were in a fat person's shop in Cardiff whereas tonight I popped to Tesco's, couldn't try owt on as they close the changing room at night but we hummed and hawed, thought "If they don't fit bring them back tomorrow" bought 2 pairs and when I got home and tried them on they do fit. They feel miles smaller than the big trews I have been wearing for some time but they do fit me

THEN....

After we came back and did loadsa "putting away" of shopping we hearer over to the gym. I was s'posed to do 20 mins cycling then 10 mins on a rowing machine but the cycle machine was playing up. We had done 15 mins when it gave up the ghost again and in disgust I thought "extra rowing time" and did 15 mins on there too

Initially the cycle machine was kind of shaking it's head in astonishment at how fast I can cycle now

Hectic Shop

So first thing today we wobbled over to Morrisons to get *all" my shopping for the week as the organic lady couldn't make it this week. I got most of it organically, no orgy muesli tho.

Better @ Walking

And when I was nipping to the loo s'morning I noticed that my right foot *now* travels forward of my left foot before it touches down. I *used*to* leav uneven footprints but it seems that they are a lot more even now

Aqua Fitness/Aerobics

Sigh.

So we are off to my extra fitness class in pool today

And it went well. I am so much more capable of doing exercises than I was even a few weeks ago. Even "she" praised me for how much better I am

Charity Shop 'Em

So me and GGtGG had a sort thru my wardrobe today and on the first quick pass we found 4 pairs of nearly unworn jeans which are a lot too big, fat bu*ger sized, whereas I am now just a bit overweight now, so off to the charity shop before swimming today

And we did it. Despite wearing no FES on my foot I walked from the car to the shop, in, up to counter and back

Trousers

So today I had my bath and thought I would try one of the pairs of trousers that are hanging up in the wardrobe. I tried a pair and they were designed for some fat git, not someone as slim as I am now. I looked again and found another pair, much smaller but still too big for me, but luckily they have a string you can tie too so I am wearing them now.

They threw me a bit next time I went to the loo. For years I have been wearing those black stretchy ones that I need to pull down at the front to have a pee, but these trousers aren't stretchable. Panic, panic, panic then it occurred to me, open the fly

Ooh

 Well just a bit wow. So today we headed miles east along the A48 corridor but not along the A48 as that's closed but in the end we made it to Sara Physios. Apparently I was very impressive but I was having such fun. By the time we got back it was nearly dinner time but I had to bath/nap first

But coming back we were able to A48 as far as normal, it's closed heading East but not on the other side of the road, that's open

Wimming

So we headed to the pool at lunchtime today and I did what was required, 6 lengths and various exercises before he felt sorry for my crying and took me home
