Pub

Then tonight we went to Burry Port to the Folky Club and it was good, not as empty as last week

Denyse

Then I had an email off Denyse saying that her car is fixed and she want's to catch up on our missed session in Cardiff on Thursday when I am down at Dacey's

Shopping

Then with Ed I went to Morrison's and did loadsa shopping, more than usual because I am teaching Toby how to make curry on Tuesday. But then we had to go to Tesco's and try buying blueberries again, the ones in Morrison's were best before tomorrow

Worse

As I was eating my breakfast s'morning I was thinking "Sh*t, I need a pooh soon" so I rushed to the sink in my wheelchair and then rushed to the bathroom in my 'chair. Oops

Aaaah, this morning I walked it all again

Fuel

After our trip along the motorway today we had to take the car for fuel, I was a but apprehensive but there were no silly queues today

Riding

Then we got in the car for f**king ages and headed to Pedal Power in Cardiff where I hired a trike. But just good lord, I am a lot fitter than last time I tried it, 6 weeks or so ago. It was just an excellent cycle round the park, by the river and further around to get back.

Afterwards we went for lunch to the place Denyse took me the first time I was here and it was excellent, if a little large, I left half of it, but it was delicious.

Then we came back, that was most of the day used

That's Better

So before my breakfast today I went for a pooh, ate my breakfast, walked into the kitchen, did my washing up, turned round and from there walked into the bathroom and stood there for the 3 minutes or so it takes to wash my teeth, from there walked back into the living room and sat back down in my wheel(ing) chair

All The Better.....

And tonight I really struggled with myself and twice women said to me "How are you?" and twice, on two occasions, I didn't reply "All the better for seeing you" like I have done for some years. Even Paul noticed and commented on how I was being more "real"

O&A

Then we had to go out, I was so bored that I had to
But I seem to have developed a taste for Dark Rum and Coke too

Daughter

Then that Freya came to see me and have a curry that I made with the OT t'other day for tea. She was in a bit af a rush today as they were having some kind of guides meeting this evening, so we took her there after dinner

Sara

Then shortly after Paul arrived that Sara came round to do "stuff" to free up my arm etc, yes, it blinkin' hurt but yes, I can feel the benefit already.
Then we headed to the swimming pool, me, Paul and Sara and she suggested some ways of improving the time we have there

UNwalkies

After walking so much t'other morning I got up today, ate breakfast, wheelchaired into the kitchen, washed up, wheelchaired into the bog and I was ⅔ of the way through my pooh when I remembered that I am supposed to be walking everywhere

Iechyd Da

Then tonight we were able to go to Iechyd Da Folk Club off king Street and they seem to be getting their heads together, so it seems that the next club will be next month as opposed to in two months so I think thay are getting it together with charging etc

Gymming

Then we went to't gym, good lord but it was hard again but I managed. There were a few extra members now and I was able to say "My.... was this f*cked when I started this" to some of them, I think I just gave them hope

Ding Ton

Then Ed was in s'morning, we were looking at each other and saying "What? Where?" most of the morning. After lunch 2day we need to go back to the beautiful gym. Which I dislike intently but I do like the outcome for me

Dinner

Then for dinner we went out again ('cos I need to) and had dinner in the Tafarn Tanerdy as I was going "Somewhere different, somewhere different". At a guess I have eaten in there only once before but not for ages and ages
Then on t'way way back we called into the Drovers Arms and had a pint.

OT

Then Sarah the OT came in and I stood up to help her cook the simple recipe that we had today so I can teach Toby how to cook that next week.
And I have got some ingredients to add to next weeks Monday shopping to cook on Tuesday
And she said that next week we can think about planting my pot

Bathroom Sink

Then I had to ask Tim for some help cleaning out the bathroom sink to make it drain quicker. He had to work on it for about an hour getting loads of black guck outa the tube. But I feel lucky that I have someone to help me, the rest of the residents don't, I think if they had complained about a blockage someone would book a plumber to come in which they would have to pay for

Timmying

So s'morning me and Tim drove to Morrison's to try to get more blueberries, couldn't get any so we jumped back in't car, drove to Tesco's and spent £1.75 on 'em there.
Luckily I am not paying for my own petrol, I think it must have cost about £4.50 for that journey
