Gym

And I am off to gym in't morning which should be fine but I am just intimidated/scared by this getting down and getting back up stuff. It might work but I haven't been able to do that in so many years

GB

And tonight again I made Garlic Bread with the dinner.

Oh yes, learning how to do "simple" tasks again which are partly difficult because of my injuries/disability and partly because I have forgotten how to do them

First Time In Years

When we left the house now I took a bit longer than usual but it was because I locked the door behind us with my right hand. My right hand is working so much more than it used to

Sara-ing

Then Sara came in today and did more walking practice, apparently I lean to my left when walking and it has become habitual as I have done it for so long. Even when walking without my 'stick I still lean over to the feft

Results

So Gareth had to phone the Doctor's and say "And results for Neils heart tests?" They were a bit vague and said "No worries" but couldn't actually give him results

I think it was OK but they were very vague

By hand

And it has come to my attention that for a couple of go's I have been able to open a packet of crispy treats with both hands, no longer needing 1 hand and my teeth to open the other side

Garlic

And my new Garlic Press works, unlike the old one that someone else bought on my behalf, this one works

Hum ha

And this morning we hum'ed and ha'ed and in the end decided to nip to Morrison's s'morning

TV

Gosh, just turned on telly tried "Not Going Out" and the main character is in hospital in a coma and dreaming rude thoughts

Sounds strangely familiar

Games

So s'morning I lost a few Solitaire games but since then I have won a Solitaire game and a Backgammon game. Just wow

Second Things Second

Then we went to gym. Gosh it was hard work today, me and Sam were practicing that "getting down and back up" thingie and I was able to go down about twice as far as last week. We had to do loads of other stuff too but this was the scariest

Just f*c*ed afterwards

First Things First

So s'morning we went to Aardvark where I didn't buy as much as usual but (perhaps because)  I walked in and back out of the shop to pick up my parked 'chair outside

Then we nipped to Wilkinson's (ex Tesco) and bought more gloves and cream to clean my feet and more printer paper for the staff PC

More Xmas Shopping

Then today after lunch me and Gareth headed out to Parc Trostre at Llanelli for a look at some different shops. We chose Trostre because Gareth has been there before and said the whole centre is modern and wheelchair friendly. And we found the other half of Freya's pressie and half of Sam's so we only have to find the other half of Sam's and my Dad's

Trysordy-ing

And I went out and did my (computer based again) voluntary work s'morning.

Today we noticed, I had entered about 10% of today's data alone, in the first third of the time, 'til Gareth came in and said "Shall I read that out to you?" and read out what I was typing in. So in the last ⅔ of the time we did 90% of today's work  

Xmas shopping

So we went Xmas shopping s'morning and s'afternoon looking in loadsa shops. At a guess we have done about half of it but we have exhausted most of the shops

And we went back after dinner to the only shop we hadn't been to, T, but they didn't have their Xmas goodies in yet

Bath Fixer

‎Then, t'other day, I finished in my bath, got dried then shouted "Help" to Paul. So he came in the bathroom, I explained then went to bed for a nap. While I was napping Paul fixed the bath, reattaching the side decoration bit which has been coming off for a number of months

Out To Eat

So as I was having a crisis feeding Freya and Timmy together we went out and had an Indian meal at The Elaichi Indian Restaurant in St Clears and it was rather lovely. There was waty too much on the menu but we found summat and we all thought it was lovely

Samless

And this morning I am torn between crying "Missing you" to Sam, the gym teacher, as we had a cancelled class s'morning(1) and being pleased that I didn't see her and couldn't carry on with my "Falling over and getting back up" practice that we started last week

(1) Or rather "didn't have a class"

Fixed It

And Timmy came in s'morning and within 3 minutes has answered my technical queries for today

In between

And in between the business me and Gareth completed The Guardian Quick Crossword again, completed
