Memory

And tonight I used in an email this word, afterwards I had to look it up and it was right, my definition, so yes, my memory is improving

Telly

And I have just watched the F1 Grand Prix on iPlayer. Earlier today I also watched Have I Got A Bit More News For You and this morning summat else too. I might have a new hobby. But what is good on telly ATM? If u can think of any recommendations for me drop me an email, please

Toby

And Toby phoned me to wish me Happy Fathers Day today, then passed me over to Julie. When she was saying goodbye I heard Toby shout "Tell him I love him"

Alex

And I spoke to Alex today, Clair's ex, and he was telling me that his current partner is moving out too. So us single chaps.....

Bloody

I will have to think of a witty Sunday title, I am stuck with this, every Sunday it comes into my head

Oh Dear

So I went to Ralph's tonight after starting to drink at home and had 4 cans of cider there. So I am not making much sentence now but I did enjoy it

Up And....

Well today I am just busy from start to finish. Looking out the window, drinking tea....... OK, not a very busy day

There is no fun on my timetable 'til Monday, Burry Port Folk Club-bing then

Music

And Julia brought me over an box of MP3 CD's t'other day, an old collection of mine. I tried to rip them but it wouldn't work so I put the box to one side, I thought that they hadn't worked, not burned properly or summat. Today I was showing Paul, he said "Yep, fair enough, but can you see the tracks on the disc?". Ever since slightly further on in that conversation I have been copy and pasting Julia's CD's onto my PC, it works now that I know a slightly different approach

Splint

And today I have just had on 2 shoes, no splint. And this afternoon, after our adventure to the swimming pool I set off outside to walk up and down and my foot still behaved itself without the splint. Staying upright is much easier now, still needs some concentration but it works

What a day

So Paul came over later, we went to the swimming pool soon after. It was the first time I have a) been in the pool with only 1 person to look after me, and b) worn my new googles which seemed to work etc. I was a bit non-summated about washing, showering, myself afterwards but it all went OK

I don't think there is owt as noticeable as last week but my arm feels better and more moveable this week

And after our swim we stayed and I had a lunch at the pool café, which was nice too

.... & at 'em

So I woke up and got up early-ish today. My trunks are on etc. So I am waiting to see if the van containing my footwear arrives from Llanelli (!) before I go, according to online checking it is on it's way

And when we had been to the swimming pool and came back what was sitting on my doormat? So next week I shall try my grippy shoe type things

L8R

So then later I went off with Ed. First of all I went to Lloyd's and paid in the cash that I had been sitting on here, because apparently I can have loadsa cash and still recieve full disability payments so wait and see now. After that we went to Ben and Jerry's for lunch. It was the first time Ed had been there and we both enjoyed it immensely

Ebay Wurks

So because I had sum advice on what to do I reset up Paypal on ebay so hopefully it will work now

OK, so I went shopping, and found another eye~patch which looks loosere than the 'play' ones I have been using, so hopefully will be better for me.

The point is ebay works!!!

Socks

And after having a shower tonight I got dressed and came back out, I didn't put on my socks and splint, and good lord but it feels different now, my right foot is going down properly etc etc. It hasn't done this for so long, and I am going to the swimming pool again on Friday, it might help me again

With Little Chap

So today me and little Paul got it together. Last night I was awake at about 6AM but by the time my alarm clock went off I was asleep, big style. So by the time I had woken up enough to do my splint, eat breakfast and do a big pooh Paul was already here, I didn't even have time to drink my coffee first. Anyway once he arrive and I finished my coffee, he did a few chores, said "Lets leave the gardening until it is dry" then we headed off into Carmarthen, into that evil Tesco's shop, where we bought some swimming goggles and a little mini kick board float type thing. Then we went off to the end of King St to that restaurant, Frankie and Benny's, we ate at last week where we had another different meal, which was as delicious as last weeks.

That Paul has taken my goggles and a black marker pen, that we also bought, away to colour in the right hand lens, to make it opaque

And...

So I started today tapping my foot. Then the meeting came here, all 4 of "my" staff. Last night the chap was talking about how we can find it exhausting just being in a difficult, stressful, conversation and now I believe him. After much nonsense I went off into the kitchen with Sarah and we made this evenings delicious dinner, it was Moroccan Mushrooms With Cous Cous and it was very delicous. About a third was put in the freezer for another day.

THEN my staff finished and went home.

THEN Freya came and really enjoyed her food

Dinner

And for dinner tonight I had summat that I cooked. No instructions on a packet, no recipe, it was the first meal that I have made up in some time, and it was nice!!

Yes, I had leftover leek, leftover celery, leftover summat else with Pesto and a Cous Cous and stuff fry up.

Headway-ing

Then someone came to see me and said "Anthony isn't going to H/W tonight, his cars broken". So I felt but today is the last day for giving in our "going on holiday with the kids" forms, so I asked Ed and he has to leave about 8.30 but can take me. Phew

And wow that was interesting, even tho he spoke after 8.30 it was still very interesting, fatigue and brain injury

Ed-ding

So first of all I got up etc then had to wait, after breakfast etc, for about a half for Ed. He came in, made my bed again as I had taken the sheets and blankets off and washed them, then we went off to Morrisons, shopping. There I went in my chair for most of it but stood up about an aisle away from the till. Gosh but it was very hard concentrating on keeping my foot upright but I managed. I stayed on my feet, easy if I'm not trolley-ing, paid and pushed the trolley away. Then I sat down again. Yes, it was very difficult but next week I will try an aisle and a quarter etc etchttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif

Then we came back, put the shopping away then went back to Morrisons as I had said "Cash till" as we came out but as we had chilled food we didn't stop on the way out. We parked the car opposite, about 20yds away and I said "No chair", got out with my walky stick and walked all the way there and back. It was only a short walk but it felt important for me to say "No chair"

When we came back we went on Ebay to try and buy a wallet for my parking permit. It all went pear shaped but them we went online and tried to sort out my paypal account so next time I will be able to use that and pay on ebay

Telly

Good lord, I have watched loadsa telly today. There was loadsa MotoGP motorbike racing today, 2 races rather then 1, then there was an F1 race this evening, which was rained off, so far. It ran for 20 minutes then they said "Nah"

Double good lord, I was looking at www site a number of hours later to see the result and they were just about to restart the race. So it is running now, it's nearly bedtime and they are just in mid~race
