'Noon

Very strange, the afternoon folk club then we picked up Toby and took him out for dinner on't way home

Dull Quiet Morning

No MOS this morning until I am being taken out s'afternoon

Walkies Shop

And it occurs to me that when we nipped to (More Reason To Shop At) Morrison's (noisy) yesterday I was doing the walk everywhere in't shop thingy, as we got in the door I stood up, pushed my trolley until we went back out through said door

Evening

Here I am sitting..... all alone..... bored......

Before Lunch

So we were on the way to St Clears and I thought "We are a bit early", headed up to Whitland, tried to find the farm I used to work for then headed out t'other side of Whitland, that I don't really know but WOW what a drive from there to lunch break. We passed a wind farm which produces enough energy for a small town, a castle and the most environmentally friendly house in the UK which I can't find a link for. He is, when his house is finished, not going to have any 'leccy bills (solar panels) no heating bills (dug down enough, warms up automatically). He might have a phone/internet bill but selling 'leccy from his panels should cover that

Lunch

So for lunch today Timmy said "Where you wanna eat, in or out?" so I said "Out but somewhere new" and he thought for a minute then suggested a place in St Clears which I was astonished and really pleased to find. For a start the food was very delicious (including the dressing on the delicious side salad) but most of the ingredients were organic. My kind of place
And after such a lovely lunch I am still not hungry at dinner time. I just had a pie, no oven chips with it for tea

Local Food

And I was in Waverley Stores last night, where I buy my veg and I was able to ask "the boss" if their veg was local as well as organic. She said "Yes" obviously eg bananas aren't local but they specify that everything has to be as local as possible.

Visitor

Then we brought Freya back with us and we had a lovely few hours.
And she elbowed her way in and made dinner for us. I had to chop up some veg but she did the rest
And when I said "Whaddaya want?" in't shop she bought some Soya organic pretend yoghurt things which were very nice
But I lost at cards today

Waverley

Then as Paul mentioned today as Freya was meeting us at Waverley stores again I had better leave it there on my timetable and not move it to Saturday as I had planned

Optical

Then we went to the opticians. He tested me loads, both eyes. Basically I am slightly short sighted on my left eye but there is no point giving me glasses which will sit on the shelf as I don't need to drive and he mentioned how it will actually help me seeing the Computer and my Kindle. My right eye is long sighted but as it is usually under a black thingy there's no point being concerned. And he said continue wearing the black thingy to prevent double vision

Practice

So me and Paul after some conversation went around town so we can find the optician that we need to go to soon.

After finding it etc we went to Gregg's Bakers and there Paul said to me "If you walk in here I will buy your lunch". So I did

Napless

So I didn't have time to have a nap today as I was busy all afternoon, but not it's 10.30ish and while I feel tired it's not too tired
But with respect I functioned OK last night but I still didn't sleep much last night (I was up b4 my alarm clock went off s'morning)

Kindling

As I finished my book last night I have moved onto the first of my books that Sam sent me, the first of the Harry Potter. And good lord, it is exciting already

Bored

And as Ed was here working today and I am scheduled for a shower tonight I got bored waiting for my hair to grow and had him cut it

Exhausted

Then I went to the Gym for my twice weekly session, although I missed last Tuesday. It went well, she was working me hard but still being distractable until Ed would tell us both off. Afterwards I filled in the forms to pay my new membership by direct debit which was a bit scary but it's done now

Ed-ding

So this morning Ed came in, we sat around talking nonsense for an hour then we went to The Coop at Cross Hands to meet up with Charles Evan who coordinates work at The Woodlands at Carmel. He bought us a cuppa to pay us back and discussed work we are doing and future projects

Wibble

And at the folk club tonight they ran out of whiskey macs and after 2 I had to go back round to drinking Guinness

Dating

So when I was having a look around in't shop earlier I saw a bargain box of dates. So I looked at 'em for a bit, thought "I used to like these but I haven't tasted any for nearly 9 years" but bought them to try.

WOW

How nice are dates?

OT

Then Sarah the OT came round. First of all I went to Morrison's to practice walking behind my trolley and we realised/decided that every time I go shopping there I will walk pushing my trolley. I will at first be followed by someone pushing my wheelchair so I can rest periodically.

Then we talked about loadsa stuff, generally about practising more walking

Dentist

So s'morning Timmy came in, we spent half an hour doing my homework for Sarah OT who is coming in thuisd afternoon then he took me to the dentist which wasn't too bad, I just had to see the hygienist today and she said that my teeth looked much better recently, suggested I spend longer flossing the back LHS and suggested I change the size of my flossers. Then we went to the shop, bought tooth care products then came home
