Telly

And there being very little Ixion today I am watching some telly. And it is pointless, sh*t

Pasta

And again I made a pasta and stir fry and stuff for dinner. The packet of stuff that I used said "serves one" on it but you were just supposed to heat it up and pour it over pasta whereas I had made loadsa veg to add.

So it worked and was lovely for the two of us

Veggie Forced?

Food shortages could force world into vegetarianism, warn scientists

AND they will make us read about it, too

Visitor

And Julia's dad, Brian, came to see me s'afternoon which was a bit strange but quite good.

And he brought me 2 of these

My eye is getting better

Then today while I was eating my lunch I temporarily took the eye patch off my right eye. Looking out the window while eating I can say it is definitely getting better, much less between my eyes, the vision looked a lot more normal. Still obviously not normal but a lot better

More reasons to shop at...

So me and Ed went to Morrison's and did a small shop, I think this once a week is too much so I will try twice a week now

Holiday

So it's a Bank(er) Holiday today but some of us don't get holidays, I have got no holidays, each and every day I have to work at flipping getting better.

Posted on Ixion s'morning

Dinner

And for dinner tonight we had scrambled eggs, beans and (oven) chips.

Yum yum it was good

So next week I might try frying the eggs, having them with beans and oven chips.

The beans are a recent addition to me, yes I like them but I think I had forgotten about buying them, and as I always cook for two adults or more, one small tin of beans is a lovely addition to some dinners

And as we had beans tonight I couldn't find a space to add the chilli ketchup

Taking It Easy

And today I am not doing owt, resting, reading my "book", it had been so hectic that I am doing bugger all except reading until we have arranged to give Toby a lift back from Kidwelly

Gone Down

And Dicky measured my leg after creaming it, and my left leg is 2cm smaller than yesterday which is loads better.

Made your own pizza

I am sorry for telling u this but I want publicity for my idea somewhere so....

For dinner tonight I had Naan Bread Pizza, it was ferking delicious. Open packet of Naan, spread some tomato purée over it, as much or as little as you want. Add some grated cheddar then some veg, I used 1/2 an onion and a mushroom on each tonight. Cook for 10-12 minutes at 200 degrees.

Coincidentally oven chips can go in the same oven 9 minutes before. It was so easy to do and so delicious, so here I am spreading the word

Zoe

And I got in touch with an old friend tonight, one that I haven't seen for 13 or 14 years. Julia got in touch with one of her kids through Facebook and passed on her details tonight

And I have just found out Zoe works as a carer, I have 24hrs a day live in carers

Splint Off

When I was getting ready for my bath I sat on the edge of my bed and started to take the splint off. ! piece of figure of 8, yep, done, one piece around the back, yep done, but I couldn't find the 3rd piece. I called for help, he said "It's just this", I said "Aha, do it up again" and undid it myself and then was able to take my splint off alone.

See if I have remembered tomorrow night

Dinner

So Freya came back for her dinner tonight which was nice, she was here 2 days ago but I am so important to her... we just had veggie burgers and oven chips but there you are, 2 pizzas will be made and eaten tomorrow night

Splinting

And my splint feels much lighter less like an enormous device that hurts my ankle. I have had it on since 10.30 s'morning and it just isn't hassle, so I will keep it on until after shopping later s'afternoon, no problem, no issue.

Taking it off on the other hand.... I need help with that. Now.

With Dicky

So s'morning we better nip to shop as Dicky didn't get to buy himself some lunch, when we are there we will get some staples for their collection and we may as well buy a mousemat or 7 for me

Aargh, we got everything else but forgot a mousemat

Power Cut

And I was just sitting here about to turn my PC off and go to bed when it all went dark, the power had all gone off. After about 30 seconds it came back on, lights lit up etc

Telly

And I have got sucked into watching an upsetting telly program tonight. Very strange, I have been watching it for nearly an hour now

Doom and Gloom

Is this such bad news as it looks when I first glimpse it?

I need a week off

So today we nipped to the splinters and got a radical new splint, yesterday it was radical this, day before it was radical the other

I just want/need a week off getting better so quickly so I can think about what's going on and come to terms with it all
