Just Working

Well I have unpacked most of my boxes now, there are just 3 bin bags which I assume are clothes and 3 small bags of summat to go, my flat looks really good now and.....

In one of the bags I found a card from Toby Blower, I phoned him and......... Toby sounded pleased to hear me etc

Web Working

So PHEW, I seem to have found a way of making web pages that work, so today will be busy making sites not unpacking more
And I have finished my backlog of pictures for the web and it is only 11.30ish, suppose I'd better unpack some more.....
And gosh, I have unpacked one box of papers, 95% of which were from my teaching job that I had no memory for, had

Help

And it seems that the web page I made isn't up. HELP
And I seem to have worked out a long winded way of doing it, but at least it works

Now all I can't do is remember what the HTML editor I used was called, or how to find it. Any clues?? Or suggestions of an alternative??
Hah, I recalled, "PageBreeze" it's called and it is working now
Hoo-flipping-ray

Ta. Aargh....

And this morning, while I was looking at my 2 PCs Stuart and Ian arrived, with all my possessions. Like, from the look of it, ALL my possessions from before. In the top of one basket I see my fire basket.....eg

Blinkin' flip

Yesterday morning my brother came to visit me, with a new PC under his arm. Now it is MUCH quicker than the old one but we were trying, and trying, and trying to move stuff accross to the new 'puter. I have given up and am trying to remake it from scratch. But HELLO....

My eye

Then David in mid conversation suggested that I shut my left eye and look "over here" with the right. Strangely enough my right eye looked properly forward if I did this so obviously some of the musculature still works, it's just the controlling circuit that doesn't function properly

Hello

There was a knock on my door today, I opened it and say my brother who had come over from Belfast to visit. That was a surprise, but a pleasant one.

We went out for a drive around and saw some beautiful views etc

Carmarthen

And I had a session with Jackie to finish off filling in my 'free bus pass' form which Jackie then posted so hopefully.....

Nag

And I had a session with Carol Underdown, my 'boss' and Jackie together. They both said "You need to do 'this' to continue getting better" etc. So I partly resent any help and I am partly lazy but they might be right, laziness is not the way to get better from here

Eye Doctor

So I had to get up really early to get to Swansea to catch up with the doctor who operated on my eyes 18 months ago. First of all he was really pleased with my left eye, he said that he had never done an operation that was so successful before. With respect to me right eye it had been 100 units out of line, it is now just 20. So much better but not good enough. He said that operations on it are not part of the equation after the other operation but he thinks that perhaps an injection of poison into one side may give the other side a chance to work. He said that turning my eyes may cause double vision but it is still a better option IMO, learn to turn my head instead of moving my eyes. Now he is gonna send me an appointment for the injection

Out and about

So this evening I went out exploring. In Llansaint where I used to live, in my ex~local pub which since then has a Folk Night once or twice a week

Dull day

Well the most exciting thing I have had today was trying to take a photo and print it passport sized. No luck so far.....

Tonight I am going out to a Folk Club in a village that I used to kive in, so we will explore too

ETB, ETR.....

So on Tuesday I woke up and found a note posted thru my door saying it was from the post office, they had been here to deliver my signed for parcel but there was no~one answering the door so they would try again Thursday, if that failed then you'd better go to the office in Carmarthen to collect it. SO this morning I thought "Better be awake" so I set my alarm for 7.00AM, got up, had brekky, waited, had my coffee, waited some more..... and gave up. Then LATER, at 8.15AM there is a knock on the door, it is the postman with my parcel

Aargh

And with these Brain Injuries you forget important stuff, occasionally. For me it's lucky that I am as obsessed with the Interweb as I am, given the slightest hint I can look stuff up.

Today someone, in an email about summat else(1) said Chernobyl. I had forgotten, thought "What's that?", looked online and found out. All I can say is........ SH*T.

(1) Cheers Hoddy for mentioning it

Shopping

Well today I went out shopping with Jackie. We went to Aardvark got organic veg and some organic chocolate etc first. Then we went around town (the rain had stopped by now, luckily) and eventually found in the market a new (enormous) bum-bag. Then, lastly we went into Tesco's and bought the ingredients for a Whiskey Mac which are now sitting, unopened, in my kitchen. This self cointrol thingy makes it seem really strange etc

Pooh

So I woke up this morning needing a pooh, as I did yesterday. But yesterday I felt the need to go to the loo before I had my brekky and coffee whereas today I had my brekky and a cuppa and I still haven't gone. I will go before I go to the shops.......
