Mouse Batteries

Then suddenly my mouse wasn't working, no movement, no clicks etc. I panicked for 1½ minute then thought "Batteries?". It was quick and easy, within about 40 seconds it was working again.

With the rechargeable batteries I bought t'other week

In all my years of using a PC I have never had one of these "mouses that requires batteries", mine have always connected via a wire

I am, SaraH

So the woman who was here yesterday said "Walk more Neil" but today, as I had an exhausting gym session s'morning I have been wheely chair ever since, but tomorrow I will be back to walking more

Bum bag crisis

And as I was on my way to the loo before going to gym suddenly my bum bag fell off. The catch had broken whereas the rest of the bag looked nearly new. I was looking online for a replacement when Edwina said "No...." and suggested I look for a replacement. Which I did and bought one for a couple of quid, so hopefully when it arrives all will be well

Jiminy

Well we nipped to Gym to gym today and I think there is a new habit. I parked my 'chair outside, "he" changed my boots and when time came I stood up and walked in to class, walked around class and walked out when it was finished, and changed my boots back

Poorly Son

And that Toby chap came to see me today and he felt a bit poorly. So earlier than usual we took him to his Mums for the night

Bit Nervous

And I feel marginally apprehensive today as after lunch time the person is coming in who will see me walking from the car park to Aardvark

No, we didn't, it was raining too hard so we stayed here and talked about loosing my wheelchair etc and about how I need to learn "I can do that" again

Fark, what a morning

So it turned out that Sally Gooch (Dunno if she is related to Graham [noisy video]) who was coming to see me s'morning, she was very pleasant. We had to talk about my accident etc and how well I am doing

16

So as I am going to sleep tonight I am listening 2 albums by that Ozzy Osbourne and what can I say? "I recall being about 16" Good stuff

(sent from my phone)

Dinner

And for dinner tonight, as I was in Morrison's a day early this week, I bought an extra packet of naan bread to make into pizza for dinner tonight. I defrosted the onion for topping but forgot to buy mushrooms. I thought "I can't drive all the way back to the shop for 3 mushrooms lets just have onion". Then it occurred to me "Look in the back of the fridge" and lo and behold there was a jar of sun dried tomatoes which had been sat there for some months, unopened, and gosh it was delicious

Mañana

And because "someone" is coming to see my tomorrow(1) morning, and Monday morning is usually when I A) Change my bed and B) Go to Morrison's shopping, I decide to do both of these a day early and changed my bed and nipped out shopping before napping s'afternoon

(1) Dunno why, to just keep up to date etc, to see how I am getting on living here in a proper house etc

Double

Well tonight after a number of months receiving 2 copies of every Ixion mail I tried again to fix it. But tonight I am looking for summat a bit different and within 3 minutes I had solved it. Dunno how many times I have tried over many months

More Lie In

And today's lie in was to after 9AM!!!!!

Ruthing

And that Ruth came here for lunch today, which was nice. She brought me some Xmas pressies which was a bit more embarrasing

Lie In

Decadently today I didn't wake up/get up until 8.45AM

(1)

Even tho the film was 3 hours long I didn't need to go out for 6 pees like I would have 3 months ago, I didn't piss until we left at the end of the film

Hot Dawgs

We had proper veggie hot dogs for tea tonight, not Linda McCartney sausages like the last time we tried. And by gord, they were lovely. Dunno if I would like it without a roll round it but just <b>yum, yum</b>

(sent from my phone)

I'm so excited

So we are picking Freya up about 4, bring her here, cook hot dawgs and oven chips for tea then we head off to the cinema in Llanelli to see The Hobbit

Gosh, it was long(1) but quite good, I think, it was only the first bit of the book tho....

Winzip is fixed

And the Winzip program that I bought (shudder) last week hasn't been working properly ever since, I had to just tell it I am using the free (one month) version, it wouldn't let me register. Then today I had a reply to the email I sent a few days ago saying "Sorry, try this link instead" and it all works now.

So I have been deleting the free copies which weren't as effective

Visitors

So for now I am sitting here being quiet as Freya is coming here on way to cinema tonight, when I got a txt from Ruth saying "When can I visit u?", then a MOS came in with a print out of an email he has just got from my solicitors saying "someome" is coming to assess me next Monday

What a night

So first of all I thought we would have a late dinner, first we would take that Toby to Kidwelly.

After we were there I said "Can we check out the new cinema in Llanelli?"

Which we did, it looks good, well accessible etc, so we bought 3 tickets for tomorrow to see The Hobbit 2d, for me, Ed and Freya.

Then we nipped to the eating in place at McDonald's and ate, I was too far away etc, actually it was OK

Then we went to Tesco's and bought a new diary for the office, on petty cash

Then we nipped into The Drovers Arms and had a pint and short, purely because I didn't wanna go home yet, we had done so much being out, and I wanted to accept it first.

Then we came back and first things first Timmy was able to add 3 items to the "What Neil spent on petty cash" book
