AquaAerobids

Then after lunch we headed to an AquaAerobics session where again I am astonished at how much fitter I am.

Then

Then we drove straight to the Drs and picked up my new script for sockings, popped into the chemist, and had too leave my phone number as they will phone me when they get them in

But I didn't have to look and tell them my phone number, I just remembered it

Next

Then I went to the dentist for a clean by nurse and a check up by a proper dentist. The cleanup was as dull as...... but my mouth feels slightly cleaner now so......

The dentist came to check me up and didn't have to do any fillings or owt which is to my credit. She did get a mirror to show me some kind of growth on my tongue which I have been instructed to try and remove with my toothbrush after cleaning

S'Morning

So Timmy showed up today dripping with the cold. A)I am scared he will be infectious so should have phoned someone else to take his shift..... and B)We headed to the pool today for AquaAerobics so.........

&Benny's

And we popped out to eat at Frankie and Benny's which I have had a "money off" voucher in my bumbag for ages so we went out to actually spend it tonight.

So we have another tenner off voucher in my bag now, we keep falling for it

Walking

And I have noticed a lot recently that when walking with or without my FES going on even if I am not concentrating on moving my right foot properly that my toes don't hit the ground every time I move my foot. So it seems that the improvement is becoming more "in place", automatic

Getting Better

And today we popped to gym and did another 10km cycle. I wasn't as puffed out afterwards as I was last week. Generally my physical fitness is getting better so quickly

Buying On Petty Cash

Then today we need to pop to that Tesco place (according to MM) and buy a diary for the staffroom for next year etc

Marginal Panic

And I had to ask MM tonight "Right, if my brother is gonna stay here we need to make the bed" to which he replied "I think it is made already", we went and checked and yep, it was.

No bed making is involved

Cutting

And I made 2 veggie burgers for dinner, c/w rolls to eat them out of. I was just able to cut the rolls in half using my right hand. It makes me think "Wow" just how much better at this kind of thing am I now 😃

Second Things Second

Then we popped to the swimming pool and did my usual load of exercises. MM did say that I was a lot less out of breath than the last time he was doing this with me so obviously my general fitness is loads better

First Things First

So first of all I popped into the doctors to fetch my script for Duac ointment and while we were there I said I saw a dermatologist yesterday and she recommended changing my sockings every three months so can I have a 3 new pairs? She said "Yep, be ready Wednesday" so I will have to pay another 50p parking fee on Wednesday

Sudden Plan

So my big bro txted me and said "See you on the 17th?". I had to say "NO" as that is the weekend when my kids are all coming over from England so he txted me again "OK, c u this weekend". Aargh, sudden plans unsettle me etc etc but it will be nice to see him

Cooking

And before my nap I got knives and cutting trays and washing bowls out etc, and fetched 5 small carrots from the garden, so I can go into the kitchen and do the biggest cook of the week, roasted veg.

Mmmm, yum yum

And "NO feck off"

And this morning for the first time since I saw that Dr type yesterday after Roy put the cream on my legs I didn't have to take my t-shirt off to let him put cream on my armpits. Hoo-flippin'-ray, a victory for that getting better

OK, I will have to let him do it s'afternoon (and check to make sure my 'pits still look healthy) but just once a day now, not twice. Hopefully a long term approach 

Make Folk Cross

Vegetarian cafe refuses to accept £5 note made with animal byproduct


The Guardian

The Docs

So s'afternoon we had to pop over to see a dermatologist at t'hospital re my skin. Basically the appt was made ages ago when my skin was in a lot worse state and now it is all looking good etc. She read the note from Denyse, asked me some queries, looked at my shins and back and basically said "Keep up the good work..."

..And Chips

Then we had the delicious Neil-made Pizza and Chips for dinner.

Yum yum yum

Pulse

So again I was in the busier, more hectic, more advanced class. And it went OK. Some of the class commented on how they remember seeing me in a wheelchair.......

And one chap asked if he could take a picture of my t shirt...

Oops

And we need to pop to Morrison's before today's early lunch(1) to buy a salad pack as that was the only thing they didn't provide on the organic order. Usually we pop to Morrison's after we pick up the veg box but as we were playing Boccia yesterday we went shopping a day early
