B,ITE (5)

Then me and Freya went off to "Where" she said, "A secret" I replied so in the end we got to where CCD, where we took turns driving a horse and cart. It was excellent fun for both of us

B,ITE (4)

Then Sarah the OT was waiting on my doorstep when we came back, so even tho I didn't even have time to eat lunch we cooked a (rather delicious) veg in a white sauce with grated cheese and breadcrumbs on top. Which was lovely by itself but relearning how to make white sauce with pasta bits (macaroni cheese) or cauliflower cheese etc

B,ITE (3)

And then I went to gym. Which again wasn't much fun but was doing me good. After gym when I was s'posed to be in the shower I had to stay smelly and cone back home to see my next visitor

Then we went off and bought Toby a dongle so his laptop can recognise the interweb. When we dropped it off he said "No works" but we said "Leave it for a couple of hours and the last we heard he had got it working but was on his way out

Busyness, in the extreme (1)

First of all today Paul phoned on my behalf the folk who keep sending me the bill for £3.00 for the address hippyweb.me.uk. Because it turns out they still had me living in England so even tho my card details were right it said "No, he doesn't live here". Good lord, what a performance, so he ended up on the phone to a woman with an american accent who was saying "My PC doesn't recognise the address, is it....." and Paul was saying "No, it's too new an address for your PC to recognise it" then she was saying "So it's...." "No"

In the end he persuaded her to just type in what he was telling her, and she couldn't recognise his accent etc etc

S'evening

Then this evening me and Little Paul went to Headway which had as a guest speaker tonight someone from Carmarthen Carriage Drivers, and basically I am going there tomorrow with Freya to try driving a horse and cart. I am not sure yet whether I will be able to make it in on foot or whether I will need a disabled driving cart but either way I hope we both have an excellent time

With Ed

So that Ed chap came in s'morning and after 3 or 4 "jobs" for him to do we went off to't supermarket where again I spent very little

Proud

And they went off earlier, taking that Toby chap to try and make it up with Hannah. The conversation we had before they left made me wriggle with pride and nearly cry. I am proud of that Toby chap, and so are they

More Wrinklies Parents

(Proud)

So this morning my Mum and Dad came round as soon as they checked out of their hotel. After a while we went to pick up that Toby chap and he charmed them greatly etc. As my Mum has 2 bank accounts that a dead uncle donated the contents for, 1 for each of my littluns (Sam got his when he turned 18), we were able to take this Toby chap and spend ½ of his funds on a new laptop PC thingie

(/P)

Wrinklies Parents

So my parents came here s'morning, took me out for lunch then we went for a drive around. Mum said it was much too up-y and down-y but me and father said it was nice. Now they have gone off for an hour and said "C U later, Neil"

And we went out and had a meal and a chat which made me want to cry as it was about when I was so f**ked

Busy again

So Paul came round s'morning, started the day with paperwork and left me on my PC for a while.

Later he took me out to my exercise for the day which was in the gym. It was as scary as she could make it but I managed to do the cycling machine for much longer today. Just generally I feel that it was a good session.

After that we went off and had a lunch in town which was as good as last time we tried it.

Then he brought took me to Waverley Stores where again I did my weeks shopping

When we were home putting my shopping away my phone rang with a txt. It was from my parents they were in town and came up to see me. We went out and had dinner after they had spoken to Paul for half an hour. Then we went out, with my father driving my car. When we were out they both said how much better I seem/look etc. We went out and had another very nice dinner in Carmarthen, it was just generally good stuff. Then we came back here, they both complained about exhaustian and took an early night

Wrinklies

And tomorrow after I go to the gym, have a shower there, then after lunch nip out to Waverley Stores then I will go down and meet my parents who are coming to Wales to visit

CAVing

Then after lunch he took me to CAVS where I had a couple of hours introduction into what I will be doing in a fortnight when my weekly session starts properly. I watched, listened then I was able to with not much hassle do this for them. I think I learned fast enough that I should be familiar with it in a couple of weeks. So hopefully they will have a load of ads to put on-line next time

Psychologist

This morning, half an hour after Ed arrived, Claire The Psychobabbler came and for about an hour we discussed how and what she is gonna tell Freya (and Toby) to make them more on my side. It was a bit intimidating/scary talking about that issue of my past and telling her about times I have forgotten but reasonably positive now it's done

Rain

And I had to go outside to put my bin out down the bottom and it was raining so heavily that I had to change my top

And a couple of hours later I was out the front and it had stopped raining

Triple Good Lord

Gosh, well I wasn't looking forward to going to the swimming pool today, dunno why I just wasn't. But when we were doing stuff in the pool I actually enjoyed myself, and I was actually able to swim 2 breadths on my back, the first time I have been able to swim a breadth in 8½ years.

Then we went and had lunch in a café and had a bit of a look around before coming back

Then I answered a txt from Toby, he said "Can I come round and use your phone to phone a freephone number", I said "We will pick you up", picked him up, he was here for an hour then we took him home again

Up

And I was actually still asleep this morning when my alarm clock went off

Aargh

So Paul came round today. As ever the day started with paper work then he took me to Carmarthen Leisure Centre where I had ages with Becky. She got me to stand up from an armless chair which I was a lot more confident at the end etc. Then she had me standing facing the wall and doing press ups against it etc. And loads more, but again I wasn't too exhausted half an hour later, even tho I was when we finished.

After lunch Sarah the OT came round and helped me cook a delicious dinner, Sheperdless Pie.

Then Freya came round, we took her off to Orange Shop where I bought her a new phone (as I gave my old one to Toby) and hers had broken, she dropped it in the bath. Me and Paul both said "Never had one in the bath", the female shop assistant said "Gosh yes, I do" and another passing male member of staff when asked "Do you have your phone in the bath?" said "No, never" Then we came back, ate our Sheperdsless Pie in a hurry then took Freya to guides because her lift couldn't make it today

Grrr

Up before 7 again, didn't go to bed 'til midnight but.....

Fun

Sex, drugs and Folk Clubs.

OK, just a Folk Club but it was excellent. And I managed to walk back from the bar while carrying my drink, as it was small (Whiskey Mac)
