Boat Club

So tonight we went to Loughor Boat Club which we used to go to once a month but haven't been to for ages. It was good except when it got busy later there were too many folk sitting between me and the loo to wheelchair it, I had to stand up and walk past 3 tables and out the door

Deposit Paid

This afternoon Denyse txted me to say that "they" have paid the deposit on my new house today. So I am f***ing moving, it's official. In a month or 6 weeks I will live in 53 Dol-Y-Dderwen, Llangain, SA33 5BE

VVVVVVVVBG

Food (glorius food)

Then we went shopping where I needed a fair amount. Instead of buying a bag of salad Timmy suggested that we go to the counter where you can fill your own. Which looks nice but how long will it last?

And it occurs to me, one day last week "someone" criticised me saying I had just had salad for lunch and I needed some protein too. But today in the selection of salad I had some cous cous stuff and some mixed seeds and nuts

(More) Timmy-ing

So s'morning when Tim came we were about to go out the door when a member of staff from here came and saw me. Basically we both said "Missing you already" because she was pleased that I am so much better but....

Light

It is so late and it is still light, roll on summer time

Toast

And I had toast for lunch again today, I tried buttering it again today and succeeded so well enuf that I just had toast and butter for lunch

Cutting

And Timmy is cutting the grass now. We had to charge the strimmer to finish the front and it is now recharging to finish the back. He has done most of it with a lawnmower but needs to strim the edges

Stress

Gosh, a stressful few minutes, trying to update my webpage but it wouldn't modernise, in the end I tried loading a page called "1N.T~H..." and that worked whereas the original "N.T~H..." still wouldn't update

A couple of hours later it just did it, gosh nose, perhaps the Internet is less busy now...

Toast

And I had toast today for lunch. Last time I had toast I had had such trouble with butter last time that I just put jam on it but this time, today, I managed to spread butter like properly and then added jam. So obviously my "doin' stuff with my hands" is improving

1st Timmying

And hooray today Timmy is here being bored doing f. all, for the first of his 3 day adventure

He's gone now. "See you tomorrow" we both said as he was leaving

Double Lordy

Gosh, my new house was built less than 10 years ago so it was after the law changed so that eg the doors are wide enuf for my arse wheelchair etc

Lord

What a day, photos etc to go here will have to wait for tomorrow. Basically I signed up for a flat which Anthony is gonne pay for on Monday so it looks like I can move into the real world in a couple of months

To The Real World

And my head is on strike today. As tomorrow, if all goes well, we may take the first step of me moving out of an establishment to me actually living in the real world.

The real world!!!!

Gym-ming

And so we went back to't gym s'afternoon. But I wasn't in the mood for it today as my head is full of tomorrow, looking for somewhere in the real world to live, but I did as well as I could

Ed-ding

Then Ed came in s'morning. He has done my feet, said "Plan 4 today?" and accepted my answer and it sitting typing on the laptop now

Newbie

And I was just about to go to bed last night when a thought struck me. So after a few minuted on Google I got a new, free, plugin for Winamp which doesn't affect it normally but then I can, at bed time, set it to play as much music as usual then click on "File/Shutdown PC when playlist finishes". So last night I put on some tunes, clicked "Shutdown after..." and went to bed. While I was falling asleep I could hear tunes then when I woke up s'morning I had to switch my PC on once more

Folking

And then tonight we went out to the miles away folk club, which was as good as a very good thing

And after drinking loadsa water every day for ages my bladder is still getting better enough that I could still have a piss here b4 we left then not need another one until we were leaving Folky Club

OT

So Sarah the OT came to see me today. We talked loads about me moving out and she said "Ikea" have loads of sample rooms so we will go to Cardiff and look at that next week

Timmying

So Tim was here s'morning. With a newspaper. And in that newspaper he saw today a very close to "here" rented house to let. So while he was here he phoned them and then phoned someone else to confirm us going on Friday to look. So now, on Friday, we well go look at three separate houses to rent

And Denyse has said "Don't panic, I will tell them you are leaving if you are" etc

Tob

Then later that Toby came back and "we" together nagged him into making a vegetable bake for our dinner which was reasonably nice when he finished. Dunno how worth while it was teaching him as it is too much preparation for me living alone but he did learn how to make a white sauce (or cheese sauce) so it wasn't too bad.

And we have a plan for cooking next week too, now

DoubleAnd he took a brief juggling lesson from Paul, I didn't know either of them could juggle
