Processed Food

Tra, la, la.... they say eating processed food is bad, well tonight instead of making a dinner we had some veggie fingers and oven chips. It was the first night in 3 nights that I was able to put my shirt back on after my bath, it didn't need washing. Like yesterdays, like the day before's.... I hadn't spilt any forkfuls on it

Visitors

And this afternoon Toby phoned me and said "Can I come and see u?", I said "After nap and do you need a lift?", he said "No lift, c u in a bit". So....

Then a car pulled up outside my house, I opened the front door, said "Hi" to Toby then saw the driver, my best friend from many years, Julie

And I was so gobsmacked by her beauty that I forgot to take loadsa photos

Banana Chips

So in Waverley stores today stocking up on milk, juice, organic veg etc, I said that I was no longer "allowed" to buy yoghurt coated raisins as they contain far too many calories but I had a look around and spotted some banana chips which I bought a small bag of. Then I looked online when I got home and they are deep fried to turn them from banana's to banana chips. The word "chips" is a clue

Right Handedly

I have just been in the bathroom, I reached behind me to close the door, which is on my right hand side, and I didn't even have to think about using my right hand, it just happened. It is still not as strong and useful as my left arm but for some jobs it's obvious that I just need to use it

Hello Paul

And Paul is here today, so s'morning we went to town to buy some ink for their printer and some Blue Loo to keep it smelling fresh etc

O&A

So we went out and about had one pint in The Drovers in Carmarthen, then came home. On the way we talked more and came to The Tafarn Pantydderwen in Llangain and that was a quality place

Caerdydd AGAIN

So we are off to Cardiff again in a bit to the splint makers and he is gonna make me a splint without quite so much "hold still" on my right ankle. And I will ask 'im to leave a smidge more on the back up over my ankle

And we managed it, gosh my foot feels in the wrong position now that the plaster has been cut off

And we will be back in a fortnight to pick up my new "normal" splint and one to use barefoot

My Right Hand

Then when the pasta was cooked I held the collander in my right hand, the saucepan in my left, held it over the sink and was able to pour from one to t'other, using my right hand!!!!

Strange Mind

So today I was trying to remember the radio stations I used to listen to. I remembered Radio 1 and the other was Radio..... small country. So I asked my driver "What do you call the small country between France and IIRC Spain?". He said Luxembourg and I recalled, "Radio Luxembourg"

How very strange is my mind??

S'afternoon

Has been quiet, Ed trimmed my hair, I had a bath, then a nap, then Ed creamed my legs and put my boots back on then......

FeedMeNow

So s'morning me and Ed nipped to MoreReasonToShopAt.... (noisy-ish link) basically to buy some veg for tonight's dinner (with making pasta sauce) and tomorrow's dinner (I already own the Curry sauce) but also to get more Chilli Ketchup etc etc

And the dinner was lovely tonight, a mild chilli pasta sauce, stir fry veg and some pasta

I finally figured it out

And for the last 2 days I have, off and on, when sitting at my PC, looking for the reference I found before about how to start watching mid-video. In the end I found it, it was easy to do and made the whole "watching" experience much better. So I have carefully saved a link, in a number of places, so hopefully next time I will just be able to do it

Dinner

So as Ed insisted on driving past m'way services we had scrambled egg on toast for dinner. Break eggs, add a little milk, beat 'em then put in the microwave for a couple of mins, mix it again and put it back in the microwave for a bit longer. Gosh it was easy and very nice, actually cooking in a microwave, not just heating up food

Phew

Well that's done, at least he said that the underlying gum was healthy. Now we need to stop and have dinner somewhere

Banking

Then we tried to nip to the bank. Paul eventually phoned and said "Right, they didn't say owt about the £500 quid minimum when Anthony spoke to them, leave it and drop him a line and we will see"

Lordy Again

So me and Ed went to the gym again. Hoo-flipping-ray I thought again. We did our usual exercises then she said "Lets all go cycling", I started "No....but...." but she said "No, come on" so I went in cycling again. Now today it was strange, if I cycle slowly I was nearly crying as my right ankle complained but if I cycled fast it didn't bleedin' hurt. So I lost more inches today.

Folking

And after we dropped off Toby we didn't come back here but headed off to Llanelli to the Folk Club and it was good

Lordy

So earlier tonight I was greeted by that Toby chap, we watched and talked about the Olympics then after his dinner a txt message landed and he said "C ya" and we did say goodbye

Water

And when I was in't shop s'morning I thought about buying more water. With fruit, so it was either with sugar or evil sweeteners, so no, I bought some much cheaper water with added ingredient carbon dioxide - fizzy
