Dusk

So about 4.45 tonight I went outside to look at the dusk and what was there in the sky outside my front door? A star - at 4.45PM

Shopping

So because they were too scared to let me go off in the snow to the shops alone today I was accompanied by Tristram another veggie who can't be taking ages to cook. He spent most of the time saying "Have you tried this, or this?" etc . Because he was nagging I spent about a tenner extra this week. Couscous seems to have attracted my attention this week, and some other stews etc. The veggie stuff seems to cook in about 5 minutes so it is easy...

And when we were in't supermarket today an announcement came over "Will the owner of car registration plate "CY570 NTH" please come and....". I want it

Cleaning

So this morning I was sitting in my PC chair and I noticed that the screen on my PC was grubby, loads of "bits" on it so I got a damp cloth and had to clean most of it

ETB, ETR....

Well I went to bed at about 10 past 12 last night and woke up again so I got up at about 7.30 s'morning.....

Strange Buying

And I looked online for ages to find a Pocket Sized thermometer to see how cold it is when outside etc. I looked and looked and looked, was just about to give up then found a cheap "whistle" that when I read a bit more is a multifunction thermometer. Now I don't suppose I will whistle much but a thermometer for a couple of quid, excellent

Sport

And I found myself watching sport on't telly again. Dunno, it seems more up to date, it doesn't matter that I have watched very little telly recently

Turn

And today I asked again and this time the third person that I asked actually knew the answer to my question and actually knew how to switch my heating up.

I am a smidge upset that 2 MOS didn't know because the central heating is 'theirs', not summat that I own/had fitted

Tap

So I got up s'morning, went into the kitchen and turned the tap on to fill the kettle. Nothing came out. I was just about to shout "Help" when suddenly it started, about 5 seconds after I had turned it on. Now it's back to normal, switching on instantly like a proper tap, so dunno

Oh Dear

Didn't We Have A Lovely Time... (noisy)

Sorry.

But I asked a chap s'morning if Dan The Haircutting Man was about. He said "It's me!", so embarrasingly enough he then said that he has got to take somebody to hospital this afternoon but after that he will tidy up my (now) scruffy long mohawk

And he did it, it looks not half bad

Weekend Now

So I woke up and got up s'morning. Today I am being lazy and wheel-chairing

Gad

So I got up early and took myself to Priory Day Hospital s'morning in a flippin' taxi because someone had contacted here and told them there were no Ambulavan's available. Yes, it was very scary being out in the snow but I coped. Unlike everyone else there, they closed early. So I phoned another taxi, they said "No, sorry, schools are out early, no cabs available, so I phoned yet another taxi company and they said "OK!", thought "Oh, I was looking forward to lunch" etc. I phoned the taxi company back and said "Where's my cab", they said "Sorry, chaos everywhere, we will phone you when your taxi is coming". So I was the only client there eating lunch, but I did enjoy it.

ObAnd I didn't see any Ixies (or anyone) riding a bike today from my taxi.

When I eventually got back here a MOS said "Ah there was a parcel delivered to you today, I will get it", got my parcel out and said "20 minutes after you left in a taxi an Ambulavan was here looking for you". So AARGH. I phoned Priory and said "Right, next Wed. if it doesn't come I am not paying for a flippin' cab again" and she said "Fairy nuff"

Iechyd Da Folk Club

I am off out in a bit..... to the hole in the wall first then to Iechyd Da

And wasn't it fun tonight, I need to go to bed almost immediately

Fear

And a MOS has just told me that a chiropodist is coming this afternoon to cut my flippin' toenails. I assume we will arrange to see her again in 6 weeks or so too

And just WOW. A woman called Gaynor came to see me, cut all of my toenails and my feet feel so much better now. On the right foot she explored a bit (as I had an infection in my left big toe) and found under the toenail was a folded bit of more toenail, an infection in a month or so, but she fixed it today

ETB, ETR....

Well I got up at 8.40 today, not having gone to bed until about 1 AM s'morning....

Teeth

And I saw a MOS today that I trust and said "My temp. filling has come out should I leave it for the 6 weeks until my next appointment?" but she said "No, phone your dentist tomorrow"

Which I did and made another appointment

Footy

Well I actually sat and watched Rangers play Man U tonight, but they lost

Lord

So I got up early s'morning and went to "the exercises for my right arm" at hospital. But it hurt loads all the stretching I was doing but "Wow" my right arm is better already and it will get even better when I go again on Friday etc

But there is a problem, no ambulance available on Friday so can I please take a taxi. So yes for Friday but I am not paying for any more

L8R

So I walked into the kitchen s'morning, stayed walking until this afternoon, again. Then later I was thinking "Where's Freya?", phoned her Mum, she said "Should be with you". I waited for another 15mins, phoned J again, she said "She must be on her way home". So I gave up, turned around and was just starting tio leave when she arrived. She had missed one bus and had to wait for another. But she came. Then, when she was here I cooked the first stir~fry that I have stirred for about 7½ years, mmmmm

Up Again

And I am up at 9.15AM today..... still feel a bit trapped here but....

Oops

And whoops, didn't mean that. So I was going to make me a coffee when "something" hit the pot too hard and broke it. Aargh, and I was at the shop s'morning. So I have ordered a new one which will be delivered on Wednesday, instant coffee 'til then

And luckily I bought an extra jar of instant for whatever reason last week. Obviously I knew
