Drink in peace

So after the team meeting Denyse told me that they had decided that I would probably be OK to drink on my own as long as I wasn't snacking too and as long as the door was open so they could hear me if I was aspirating(1)

(1) Choking

Team Meeting

And ATM all my staff and Denyse are in't kitchen talking about looking after me

Dinner

And with tonight's dinner we had potatoes which you set in an oven dish then bake. So when I took them out of the oven I set it on a wet t towel (as recommended by a shop assistant last week) and it didn't slide about, sat still while I got stuck into the bits of spud with a lifter

Small Hand Towels

And while I was at gym today "someone" delivered my 2 new small towels to fit on my hangars. I expected them to txt me but they just stuck them in the outside of the letter box. I assume they forged my sig but it was good of them and I think it is posh enuf here to be able to do that

Jim

And then s'morning me and Timmy went to gym, I did loads, I couldn't even speak for a few minutes afterwards as I was so knackered.

Walking everywhere in't gym, and remembering to bend my right knee when it's about to go down etc, so it doesn't hurt as much

Sheets

And before gym today we nipped to the drapers, then had to go to the second one in Carmarthen which did sell fitted sheets that are long enough to go over my matress, normal ones are 5-6 inches long whereas my matress is 8 inches thick

So sheets are a bit pricey but it fits

Shaved

Well s'morning b4 I had my breakfast I had a shave.

And for the first time in ages I didn't cut myself, not even one little bit

Chipless

For tonights dinner we had Tofu burgers which were strange but quite nice and tomato and chilli new potatoes.

Which were surprising and really nice

And I continued on my "easy cook potato dishes".....

Peace Perfect Peace

Again I had a lie in, didn't get up to about 9.30. So I was sitting having breakfast with Paul and my brother, thinking "Finish breakfast then text my Dad and say 'Come here'" when their car pulled up outside and they came in.

They have been and gone, now peace again probably 'til the end of April when they will have to come back for another meeting

Dinner Out

So because mum was allergic to summat I cooked "they" had to take me out to dinner again.

I had Cheese&BroccoliBake with chips and it was very nice

And I had to ask my neighbour what his sweatchirt meant

Shopping

Then today we went and did our Aardvark shopping a day late and my mum had to pay loads because I got loads.

Then we went to Wilkinsons and did some more

Eatin' Out

So tonight I presented my parents with the big dish of pastas and veg and cheese bake that me and Paul made s'morning, and my mother said "Oh, I can't eat cheese" so..... eating out

Aargh

So about 4 o'clock my parents and brother arrived here. Ever since then I haven't been on my PC but they have gone to bed now. About an hour ago we took my brother back to his hotel

Iechyd Da

And we are off in a bit to pick up Freya and then we are going to Iechyd Da for their monthly folk night

And it was as excellent as it was last month

And I sat in a different seat than usual because when I walked in Ruth and her tribe were sat downstairs so I joined them. Which I couldn't have managed a few months ago but last night I only pissed after we had left Iechyd Da

They're Here

So today my parents and big brother are in Bristol having a meeting with my barrister and hopefully saying "He deserves loads" etc then tomorrow they are driving a hired car to here where various combinations of them will stay here Friday and Saturday night

And I just spoke to them, they were being really positive about the barrister so hopefully.....

Proper Healthy Eating

So tonight I made our dinner with one of the products I have been a bit paranoid about but from the fridge, prepared mashed spuds was on our plates. For the first 3 mouthfuls I thought "Not as nice as chips" but by mouthful 4 I realised how lovely it was, and how healthy etc etc

Sigh

So it's off to gym in a bit......

And we need to buy some "stuff" for when my folks are here, eg coffee etc, so we will be in't superdoopermarket again

Double sigh, I have had enough of going to gym but I am still getting better so I'd better be quiet

After gym we first of all headed to Aardvark to stock up on coffee and milk before nipping to super-dooper-market but we bought everything we were looking for there, including floor cleaner and antibiotic hand wash. The only thing they didn't have was white loaf with long enuf date on it but we found one of those on the market stall outside so we didn't need to go to a supermarket at all

Shopping

Then we went to the usual supermarket today in search of some carbohydrate that was a) less fattening than oven chips and b) as easy to cook. and in the end we found loads in the fridge section.

Jones Bach

So Sarah Jones the OT came to see me s'morning and we talked about loadsa stuff, 'Neil needs to get a life' etc, how and why

Pudding Tonight

And after my scrambled eggs and beans and chips dinner I had a pudding. I went to the freezer, opened the new packet of cornettos and had one.

Gosh but it was very delicious. I am very tempted to have another pudd....... supper but as I am on a diet I'd better not
