Aargh

So first of all we went to Headway where they were having a free dinner 'cos it's Christmas. It was delicious food but not a roast dinner, in fact it was curry and bits. Then we went to Headway for what I thought would be our last meeting. But within about 20 mins or so I had agreed to get involved in a Disabled Abseiling do about April or May so we'd better go along 'til then at least

Then we went to The Friends Arms and had a small drinky or two then came home

Clean Up

Then after lunch I had to go and run a bowl of water and do the washing up early today as I am not to have dinner tonight, we are being fed at Headway

Phew

So Ed came round s'morning, put away my washed sheets etc, then took me to (More Reason's To Shop At) Morrison's where we bought food etc, then came back here where he used his Memory Stick to transfer some staff(y) forms over to the new laptop so someone else can look after them

And then I asked Ed to mend my bracelet. I thought there was a bit of string in the drawer but I actually found elastic. So excellent, it is tight fitting round my wrist but pulls off easily.

And he had to phone the wheelchair fixing people (3 times) and make an appointment for them to come and "fix" 3 different issues, next Thursday

More Reason's To Shop At...

And Timmy came round after lunch. First of all we went to Morrison's and bought half of my list for Monday's trip as it was a bit big. Especially as I am buying the minimum in supermarkets and most of it in the health food shop.

Then that Toby came round and was a bit...... un-himself. We took him home in the car and .... he is going to bed early tonight as he hasn't been to bed for a number of days

Sunday Morn

And this is the only daytime during the week where I am alone. "Ooh what fun we had" (not WS). Just a dull, raining, morning

Napless

And we were so busy today that I had no time for a nap. I promised Timmy that I would have one after tea but I have been so busy catching up with the day that it is now much too late to nap and I have just put my dinner on't table.So I will have to see how I feel as the night goes on

And it is a quarter to ten now, I am still awake but thinking of bed soon. So yes, I am a couple of hours missing

What A Day #58 (3)

Then when we were on the way back we went, got Toby and took him to the Hospital to meet his new baby sister which was making me a bit emotional but went well. I wasn't allowed in to see them as non family members are only allowed in briefly but it went well anyway

What A Day #58 (2)

Then we stopped and had lunch in a motorway services as it was getting late

What A Day #58

So Timmy came in s'morning, faffed about for a bit then took me to Pedalpower in Cardiff. Firstly we had a conference as last time I was there I needed a special pedal on the RHS to protect my foot etc but since then I have a new splint and there is no need for any of that nonsense, I just get on a bike and go. It was excellent, I cycled for three quarters of an hour. The only issue I had was that the pedals were about 1mm too close to the seat so my right leg was hurting for 10 degrees of a circuit but not by much

L8r

So then he finally arrived today, we did boring paperwork etc then there was a knock at the door. It was a chap delivering the new lapdogtop that is gonna live here, and we will move sum files from my PC to it so I will be less crowded etc

After hours of setting it up and putting antivirus on etc we went to Waverley Stores where I didn't buy as much food as last week. We also went into Tesco for summat and I bought some newbie frozen food to try

Phone Call

And I have just taken a phone call from Paul and he said "There has been a huge crash outside Pembroke Dock and they have closed the road, I may be a bit late"

Better Code

And for some reason I was searching Google again and for some reason I discovered how to put an MP4 in the body of a webpage instead of the head like I had to do

Windy

Well luckily the weather here isn't as bad as Scotland ATM and thank lord that it is happening now instead of the 23rd. Anyway we sheltered indoors s'morning then went to the gym after lunch and good lord. 1) I got the assistant singing Rocky Horror at one point and 2) I am so much better

Wow

What a day, the dentist wasn't too mad but a bit expensive and the folk club tonight was excellent even tho I am uploading a HUGE file ATM

More Scared now

And yes I am more ill at ease because at 11.30 I have an appointment with the dentist

Fear

And yes I am slightly ill at ease because at 11.30 in't morning I have an appointment with the dentist

Walkies

So Timmy came in s'morning, caught up on paperwork then took me to the first gym session I have had with my new splint. So I walked in and did loads of timed walks etc then loadsa standing up exercises etc. They were pleased at my progress and so am I

And then later that Freya came over for dinner. We had the same dinner as last week but this time I tried turning the pies over in a small plate holding them in place with a T-towel instead of trying to use both hands and this time the pies worked, it tasted and looked beautiful

Burry Port

And we went to the Folk Club where they sell whiskey macs.... And for the first time in 8½ years as my left hand was no longer holding a walky stick I was able to walk to the bar, by a drink and carry it back by myself, walking

Ding

So then later Ed came and got me, initially took me to (More Reasons To Shop At) Morrison's where I bought more stuff than usual. And today we went up the first aisle with me in my 'chair then at the end I stood up, attached my hands to the trolley and walked everywhere we needed to go to buy stuff, still stood up went thru the till, still walked outside pushing the trolley

Goodbye

And this morning for a couple of hours my sister and her hubby were here before they set off to Scotland again. I will see them in 18 days as then I will be in Scotland for Xmas
