Heat

And it is much warmer now, reading outside tonight after 9 o'clock it is merely a bit chilly rather than freezing like it was last week

Rugger

Then this evening we went to the club where we usually go to Folk Nights and were in a room full of Wales fans watching the rugby. And it was a close match, Ireland were winning at the end until 2 minutes before when they got a penalty which Wales scored

Then afterwards a very good band played for a couple of hours, they were very good

Quote

And yesterday when Timmy knocked the door I walked and answered it. He commented that I have never done that. Fairy nuff. It only occurred to me that usually I am too scared to walk until someone else has tightened my right boot, the one with the splint in

Much Warmer

And tonight being outside this late it is merely a bit chilli, not as cold as a very cold thing which it has been for 5 or 6 days

No Hands

And I am still working on this standing without helping by pushing with my hands as it is still improving so ..... hoo-flipping-ray

Shopping

Then we went out to Morrison's and bought half of the stuff that was on my list for Monday as I will be busy on Monday afternoon so I want it to be finished quickly on Monday

Lunch

And after our shopping trip today we went to the bakers and bought a cheese and onion pasty and a custard slice. Now I have known about cheese and onion pasties for 30 or 40 years but these Custard Slices, I have no memory of eating one before my accident but now I think mmmmm Why didn't I know?

Tim

So with Timmy today first of all we had to fix my electric toothbrush as it wasn't charging. Then Timmy was able to take his coat off. But he had to put it back on as we went shopping for body warmers as I don't wanna big coat on sometimes but it is too cold to just have my jumper on.

Then I came back, had a nap and now......

Skype

God. Talk about technology has gone mad. Well on the laptop which has a built in webcam you can "phone" other webcam onliners and talk to the real time moving image of them. Good lord, I feel out of date

Freya

Then Freya came round and had a quality just father and daughter hanging out day, I was well pleased

Swimming

So me and Small Paul went to the swimming pool this morning and had an excellent swimming and walking up and down the pool session. And I seem to have got a bit used to Paul being there and helping me dry etc, it seems less embarrassing today

Then after we went swimming we stopped and had a sandwich for lunch in the café there. I parked my chair at the table, walked to the counter, ordered my food and carried my tray back. On my own two feet

Freestanding

And I have noticed recently, from my wheelchair, the loo, seats in class etc that I seem to be able to stand up most of the time without using my hands to pull me too

Less Nap

And as I was nervous because Toby had told me he would be here at 4 PM, and I couldn't nap 'til 3.20, I only had a 20 minute nap today

And it is now 11.10 and I am still up

After midnight still up now

Cooking

Then I cooked the dinner from the lentils, the veg selection I bought yesterday and the leek that I picked from my garden t'other day

Singing

Then eventually Ed gave me a copy of the video that he had been working on for a couple of weeks, so at last I have a video of me singing

After lunch

So then after lunch we went to the gym where I was alone with Samantha again. It went well and she was telling me, and I could see it myself, how much better I am getting and how ½ the exercises that we do are irrelevant as I should concentrate on some

Ed-ding

So Ed-ding came here this morning and did stuff on Laptop for ages, this afternoon we are going back to gym, so....

FC

And then we actually made it to the folk club tonight which was rather excellent and we are actually going back there on Sunday to watch the rugby and then the band that are playing

Busy

So today me and Tim(my) went out the back and looked at my veg patch and picked some organic leeks from there

Then me and him went to...... shh.... Tesco's in order to buy some ingredients so tomorrow I shall be cooking vegetable stew in a saucepan. With my leek

OT

Then Sarah The Occupational Therapist came round. First of all she was videoing me doing the nine peg test, then I had to do it with both hands 3 times and counted etc. Then she talked about my shoulder and the restrictions of movement and how I need to buy some sponges and use them to clean my cupboards etc
