Not Walkies

So today after I came back from Physio I have been wheelchairing, tomorrow is gonna be different, I will get up and walk into the kitchen...

Curry

And I thought this afternoon "What kind of veggieburgers shall I have with my oven chips tonight?". After thinking about this for about 3 minutes I decided "No" and made curry instead, I dunno what it tastes like yet but it looks good ATM

AND it is delicious

Off

And this morning I am off to Priory Day Hospital for the first time in a week as last Friday I had an assessment here instead

AND I woke up and got up at the scrake of day this morning...

So I turned up at the Day Hospital today, it went as well as can be expected, yes it hurt etc. Then the lady came to take me home. I thought "Shall I have a piss or just go home then have one?". We came half way home then her SatNavc wouldn't find it any more and as we came here a different way than usual I didn't know where we were either. So we stopped while she typed into her SatNav. 3 times. When I was nearly wetting myself. In the end she phoned someone for directions, got here, dropped me off and I wished I could run but just walked quickly into the loo

And today was the first time in 7 years where I was able to climb the steps into a van

Wheely

And this morning I am not walking as in a bit I will be off to my Physio Class without my wheelchair

Fixers

And 2 chaps came, did loadsa work on my lock and went off. Then I tried it and my lock wouldn't lock, so they had to come back and undo all their work

Lunch

Today, for lunch, I had the first can of soup that I have eaten for many years. And it was lovely

Freya

And Freya just phoned me (as she has got up) and said that she is back from Dance Camp and had an excellent time and she is coming over to see me later today

And she did, but tomorrow she is going to be a teenager!! I gave her her pressie which she opened a day early as she wanted to do it with me

G.Morning

Well early this morning the man came to the door with my delivery of my missing HHGTTG volume which I am a bit pleased about

Out

So I went out to a meeting of Brain Injured folk at Mind in Carmarthen tonight. It was a bit..... dunno, can't decide whether to go to next months meeting or not.

But I had never heard the term Brain Injured before and there was a whole meeting of them tonight, folk who don't live here

Tomorrow

Gosh today is too exciting but I just received an email from Julia to tell me that that beautiful Freya girl is coming to see me tomorrow afternoon

Walking

And I finished walking at about 3.15 this afternoon as I am cooking then going out to Headway later

Water

First of all I was in the kitchen cleaning up my mess from the spilt coffee(1) when I turned the tap on for some water. I thought "What's that noise?" looked down and saw a puddle getting bigger under my sink, the pipe had come out which I did need help with

(1) When I first spilt it I thought "Oh, help" but then I got stuck in and cleaned it up by myself. Until the next crisis

Up and down again

So I went out and walked up and downhill again, like I did when I took these photos last week, and... dunno, I am not sure but I think it is getting a bit easier

Troubles ahead

Dunno, this morning is..... p'raps I have not had enuf sleep < shrug >

But I am thinking.... sometimes when I stand up my right foot is stuck, I used to have to sit back down and move it but it seems that I can just do it now without panicing or falling over

Done already

Usually Monday is a trip to Morrisons for shopping but I went yesterday with my parents (and put a bottle of milk in the freezer) so I don't think I will be shopping tomorrow. I need some razor blades but I can be scruffy bearded for another week, save £12.00 in taxi to just buy razor blades

Someone went to Tesco's for me as well as their own and I got 5 razor blades for nearly a flipping tenner

Scan

And every time I pressed the 'Scan' button on my Printer it said "No software" so I thought "Sh*t", was trying to find software for it. Then mid-look I found a set of instructions to start scanning by doing stuff, not pressing the button, and it works now!! The button still doesn't work but I now know how to do it

Walkies

And today this walking perhaps feels a bit easier, I have been doing it since I woke up

And it is now 4.30PM and I am still doing it

OK, I had to stop about 4.50 as cooking was too much hassle but then from about 5.20 I am walking again

I got back in my wheelchair at 21.10 tonight

8 AM

Gosh, got up s'morning after being in bed awake for ages

NOT walkies

And after another day of "Doing stuff from my wheelchair" tomorrow is another "Walkies" day, I will wake up, walk into the kitchen, see how it goes from there

Fare thee well

And I said tara to my parents tonight, they have to leave early in't morning. Possibly my next visitor will be soon and they will be back for that
