Eat

And I cooked a curry today from the veg I had bought on Monday and water and oil etc. When I went to lift it I had to put about 1/3 of it in a box for the freezer, I thought "Where has it all gone, why is it so little?". Then it occurred to me, "Ahhh, you forgot to put any lentils in, no wonder it's small, and no wonder I was worried that it was 'too runny' for ages"

Dial-A-Ride

I phoned Dial-A-Ride yesterday, booked transport from my flat to the supermarket next Monday. They phoned today said "No can do, later?" I talked some more and the Dial-A-Ride bus is booked to come here at 10 to 11 next Monday and take me to't supermarket. Taxi back, but "free" journey there

S'afternoon

And this afternoon I printed out loads of bits of paper with my name, address, phone numbers, email and web addresses to give to people that I remember from the Tai Chi class tomorrow

Nowt To Do

So now I have no "extra" stuff to do, nowhere to go etc.

But I was reminded it's Tai Chi once more tomorrow followed by a late trip to the folk club, it's monthly night is tomorrow

Then

Then Freya came over to see me and I was so tired that I could hardly speak to her, but it was still good to see her

What a Day

So s'morning my Case Worker came and took me to nearly Cardiff on the M4 where we went in to the headquarters of the Wildlife Trust of South and West Wales and I was "interviewed" and I think I got the job, helping them out with loads of photos on a PC that needs cleaning up. I don't know anything for sure yet but it looks as if they wanted me, so now I am waiting for them to check loadsa stuff to enable me to work there, and we need to employ a support worker to take me there and support me while I am there. It felt really strange being interviewed again but it was worthwhile

And then we were in my flat talking about all kinds of serious stuff until it was nearly time for Freya to come and see me, all in all an exhausting day

Grown up book

Today the first part of my new book arrived. So now I can try reading a 'grown up book' instead of the 'children's books' which I started this being able to read a book again thing. I have only read the first chapter so far but it is enjoyable etc

And I was sitting outside under the light at midnight reading some more....

Bus

And I have just phoned to check and the bus is wheel-chair accessible this morning......

Aargh, and then it broke down and an unwheelchairable bus came. (sigh) In another 50 minutes there was a wheel chair friendly bus coming, only going into Carmarthen but.... Eventually we got on that bus, said "Please go to supermarket". He said "No can do but after this finishes in Carmarthen I drive to supermarket between runs and start the next run from there, so just stay on"

So we went to the supermarket on a bus, now I have done it once.....

Gosh I am knackered now, obviously I didn't have to do much but the excitement/nervousness....

Leighton

So I have arranged for a MOS to come on the bus with me tomorrow, his name is Leighton. Fairy nuff. Then it occurred to me Leighton Buzzard in Bedfordshire, I went there on my way to Wales years ago in order to persuade a beautiful woman to move here with me, which she did

Shower

Had an early shower tonight as it was so quiet otherwise

Yes

It's Sunday today......

Watching Telly

Now I was watching this BBC iPlayer thingie again, I am a bit of a fan, but I ATM only watch programs that I recall from before my crash, how will I get to know modern telly?

Book

This morning I started reading another new book that arrived recently, it's called "Short And Shocking" after the stories within. The first story I enjoyed, lets hope the rest of the book is this entertaining

Out

So I went out to "play" last night, it was relatively busy but on reflection it was a Friday night.

I went there in my 'chair as I need to sit down and can't carry drinks while using my 'stick, but when I was there I parked at one end of the pub, stood up (with my 'stick) and walked thru the crowds to the loo at t'other end, came out and walked back to my 'chair

Busy

And I am busy ripping loads of CD stories that I ordered t'other day and they arrived today, I want to be able to click my PC and listen

C-ya Priory

Gosh, I feel exhausted from the hour or so of exercises I had earlier

Goodbye Priory

Well I had my last Physio at Priory Day Hospital s'morning. Gosh, it still hurt but was still good. My movements are still looking better than they were before and it still hurts trying to get better.

So for now I am finished, dunno what the future holds

RHS

So as usual the cuffs on both sleeves needed turning up before I put on my 'over shirt'. As usual I turned the right one up with my left hand easily, changed sides and was having difficulty with my right hand, as usual. Usually I try once or twice then buzz for a MOS to come and help me, we groan about how my right hand used to work etc. BUT TODAY I tried once to no avail, tried second time and it just worked, dunno if my right hand is getting more coordinated, stronger or what. But for the first time in nearly 8 years I did it with my right hand!!!

iPlayer

Well having had to download and install BBC iPlayer to let me watch that program with 2 Brain Injured chaps talking I tried downloading a couple of other comedy's which I watched 1 of earlier and I really liked it. Now my 'puter is set to switch the screen off every two minuted if I don't touch the keyboard/mouse but watching iPlayer I don't touch and it stays on, and goes back to "normal" switchy offness as soon as I stop watching programs

Last of, for now

And tomorrow I am going to Priory Day Hospital, which I haven't been to for a number of weeks, for the last Physio session, for this load of BoTox anyway
