Toby

And a handsome young chap called Toby just phoned me, from his Mums house. He is back staying there for now!!! It seems to be going OK and he asked me if he can come and see me tomorrow.

Carrying It With My Right Arm


Good lord, that was scary. Loadsa new stuff, carrying summat in my right hand while walking on an uneven surface etc. But I managed!!!

Gelatin

I had a delivery (well, the postman brought it) some sweets this morning. It contained amongst other stuff some Drum Sticks. Which are delicious but as I was exploring on that Interweb as I am bored they contain gelatin. So those of us holier than though veggies should send 'em back or throw 'em away. I used to eat them in the past before I had so much time on my hands so perhaps now I know not to buy any more

Up and At 'Em

Well I got up and walked past my 'chair into the kitchen. I will hopefully continue walking until 6PM tonight when the taxi is coming to take me to Iechyd Da

Haircut

And I nearly plucked up the courage to pay for someone to cut my hair, but I was nearly crying at the thought of actually paying for summat when a woman who works here cut it. Before nagging me about the state of my flat, but we are all happy now

Shopping

Well I spent some of my Mobility Allowance on a Taxi to Wilkinsons in Carmarthen where I bought the 2nd Halloween Mask I had chosen. The first, luckily I was wearing it to the till and it hurt my nose, so I had to go back and chose another
And I noticed later... on the price sticker of my mask it said £3.75. But on my debit card I only paid £1.74. So dunno, I don't s'pose I will be back so....

Morning

Well, I got up and into my 'chair this morning, resting day not. I woke up and thought "I hope my PC is fixed now, I had no emails yesterday". As I was getting my breakfast I was kind of thinking "WTF" but when I was using my PC there was proof, I must have been having a scary dream, I did get emails yesterday. Scary dream, who knows

Walk Day Before Yesterday

Mmmm, it seems walking without fear is back tonight, so he was right

Cash

And I received my back dated cash for bus fares etc, my DLA Mobility Component, this evening. I got £3152.50 and I dunno when the next payment is gonna come and how much it will be

RHS

And I have noticed recently that when I walk my right arm is no longer holding itself out in front like it used to

Walking Well

For a start I am not as scared as I was at this time yesterday, dunno why.

And when Freya went home today I started to take her chair back into the kitchen where it lives mostly. I was walking pushing a chair and I thought "No" as it was slow and noisy. So I reached down, picked the chair up in both hands and walked the rest of the way, about 10 paces, with my chair held up

Well

So today, for a start, I have been walking everywhere, including making Freya's lunch as it is half term for her so she was here earlier today. Amongst other stuff we played loadsa games of cards, which I think I won more of but it was close. And she was being a bit naughty today too. Then when she had gone I walked back into the kitchen and made a small dinner as we had so much cooked lunch.

What A Day

Gosh....

Cold

Well today I was having to stay indoors as it was so cold outside but in the end I had to turn the heating indoors up a bit, as long as I remember to turn it back down if I am still here in spring

Walking Yesterday

And I have just had a conference with a MOS telling him that yesterday I was really glad to be getting on my 'chair at shower time, it felt that walking was too hard. He just said "A day off, hopefully it will be back to normal tomorrow" so (shrug)

Shopping

And this morning I went and did a weeks shopping at (More Reasons To Shop At) Morrisons even buying summat that wasn't on my list today
But tonight I went to cook a Veggie Sausage and I have none left, I have a Linda McCartney Lasagne which I mistook for a packet of sausages

Up

So I was up s'morning at 8AM despite the fact that my alarm didn't go off until 8.45.
Last night I went to bed and left the tumble dryer running, when it was finished it made a series of loud beeps so I had to get up at about 1.30AM to switch it off

Wheeles

So about 9PM I got back in my wheelchair in order to have a shower etc

Walkies

So my wheelchair has been sitting next to my bed all day, and my walking stick is on the back of it. Earlier on I got out my clothes to put on after showering later etc. I will continue walking 'til I have done the dishes etc this evening then I will take my wheel-chair into the bathroom and shower this evening
Still walking 1PM now
After 4.30PM now so I shall have to walk in and make my dinner soon
And it is 5.40PM now and I walked in, walked around while I was preparing, carried ot out on my own two feet and stayed walking while I did my washing up etc

Full Bottom

And yes, I may have used a witty phrase to mean summat else, I don't have a Full Bottom either, I went and had a poo about 30 minutes ago
