Shaving

So I had a shave s'morning. Then half an hour later I stroked my face and realised that I had shaved each side, the bottom, around my mouth but I had forgotten to do my upper lip

No Neil, you are not to grow a moustache.

Shaved it off now

Deliverer

And a chap in a van came to the door s'morning with an enormous box of gloves for the staff to wear while creaming me etc

Shhhh

So an article about criminal investigator made me think "Oh, I can do that but a bit more uncriminaly" hence taking these, to figure it out etc

Last Of All

Then when I was half way thru my nap the phone rang. I answered and it was Glangwili  Hospital saying they have a special clinic on Saturday for my skin and I have been on their list needing it for ages so I will go along. So Saturday afternoon we have to go see some kind of a Dermatology Expert

Phew

Then today we took my forms and passport etc to Carmarthen County Council and they hummed and ha'd then eventually said "Yes, you are entitled" and said that that will post me a new parking certificate in the next couple of weeks.

And they gave me an envelope to post the old one back to them when it runs out

No Gymming

Then after lunchtime we headed off to Swansea to Sara the Physio. First of all we were exercising with my right foot on a cushion and stepping back and forward with my left leg. Amd just wow, my right leg is so much better every fscking day ATM. It is just wow.

At the end of the appt she gave me a splint thing for my right arm, it is just to be worn when I go to bed but it is to stretch the wrist and fingers, to make my hand move properly. She also said about did I want another jab in my right wrist. I said "Yes, yes, yes" as the last jab made such a difference and hopefully if she thinks I am ready this one might make such a difference too

Then

Then later we drove to Swansea for a Headway meeting. It wasn't bad and we arranged to meet up with them on Thursday at the variously able bowling thing

And as we were coming back Timmy commented on how much better I am getting at just randomly having conversations with passers by

CCC

So we headed into town and went to CCC office to give them the forms for my reapply for a new blue badge. They said tick, tick, tick.... ah this letter is out of date. So we explained how all my letters get sent to Anthony in Bristol and Timmy emailed an Anthony assistant and asked for a copy. My blue badge doesn't run out til the end of the tear so we are OK, just waiting now

Monday Morning Again

So it is Monday again. Today we have to head over to Headway Swansea instead of going swimming. I think "Oh no" about going to HW, but "Hoo-flipping-ray" about not going swimming so I shouldn't complain too much

Walkies

So tonight I stood up in the kitchen, picked up my walking stick and tucked it beneath my arm, not touching the ground, and walked all the way to the bathroom. Put my 'stick next to the door and walked the rest of the way to the loo. Pee'd and walked back with my 'stick under my arm

Hah

And luckily the poor sod liked it last night as we have to eat it again tonight

Memory Strangeness

And I just remembered to change my bed s'morning. Just remembered, like any normal person. I used to have to leave myself notes etc, but now I just recall

Tea For Seven or so

And I cooked another pan of veg and lentil with tomato and pasta and it was fscking delicious. GGtGG agreed. There was the sauce and garlic and loadsa herbs etc that I added s'morning, it cooked all day

And while I was cooking this I found, in front of the pasta, a packet containing about half the amount of pasta I needed. As it was boil for 4 minutes as opposed to the new pasta which was boil for 8 minutes I thought "Oh just throw it away" so I did. THEN it occurred to me that Timmy is here early next week, when I will be eating pasta and he doesn't eat my food so half the amount I will need then

Lentils

And I was making food early today and used the last of the red split lentils so we popped into Aardvark to pick up some organic version. When we were in there we saw the owner/boss and said hi. She immediately said how thin I was looking

Pubwards

And later on we headed up to the local pub. It was a bit busier as they had Welsh rugger on't telly but as soon as the match finished we were neark=ly alone in the drinking area. There were some folk in the dining area but........

Unbearably Proud

So s'afternoon my and RoyGBiv headed into The Range to just buy some superglue which I am sure was in all the supermarkets but we fancied somewhere different. So we got there, asked a MOS whereabouts to look, she said "Upstairs...... or there is a lift around the back" as she caught site of me looking at the escalator. Roy headed off towards the lift then came back most quickly as I was looking at the escalator. I looked some more then just thought "Do it" and went and climbed on. That was fine but by the time I got to half way I was panicking about the other end but when it came it was no problem. Step and immediately let go which felt all wrong but as I no longer need to hold anything it is actually right

When we found what we were looking for we came back down and this time I had handed my camera to Roy to catch the important event

UberGymming

Then today it was my day in Sam's advanced gym class and it went well enough. Several folk said "I remember u when you were first coming to classes" and "You were in a wheelchair" etc

Technology These Days

So I received an email advert today and the picture has steam coming out of the cuppa. So it's a video, not a photo.

Lordy computers have got a bit cleverer while I was iller

First Of All

So first thing s'morning first of all we popped down to cafe Iechyd Da and fetched my batch of organics which was delivered there (And I had to say to the boss "Can you employ some uglier staff, I just can't cope with this lot") then we shot off to Morrisons and bought the small amount of shopping that's the rest

So we are back home now but we will be back in Iechyd Da s'evening for the monthly folk night

Yes, a good time was had.... it was well busy, loadsa musicians and loadsa customers. Again we sat down the 2 steps from the loo but I can manage that now, no issue.

And next months folk night will be a week earlier to avoid the christmas nonsense

Jim Nasty

So s'morning me and Timmy and a bottle of water went and did loads of gymnastics. We did various arm exercises then got on a rowing machine and rowed for over a mile
