Brian

And Julia's Dad came to see me today, which was nice. I must have made some impression on him the years me and his daughter went out

Gordon B

Oh, watching telly over breakfast and it reminded me summat that I had forgotten, Gordon Brown became PM after Blair

Using My Right Hand

And using my right hand to move breakfast from trolley to table is still harder than using my left hand but it is 10 times easier than it used to be

Bonus

And for some reason Panasonic sent me a £30 cheque today, which was nice

Caps Lock

And I have just noticed that if the Caps Lock on my PC is switched on there is a little light at the corner of the button so you can know it's on when looking at the keyboard

Shortest Day

So today is the shortest day of the year, tomorrow it starts coming back longer again (OK, not by much but it starts)

FESing....

I suspect that I will try wearing my FES device to Gym today.

I have owned it for a week but haven't worn it in anger yet as I have had an infection

Well I have fitted it and tried it. Wait and see....

Well it seems OK, I have taken it off now we are back but my leg did feel better with it on. Towards the end I felt funny but upon taking it off we saw that the wire had got under the sticky pad so perhaps that's why. But for a first run it felt OK

Aardvarking

So we went and bought loadsa food and drinks s'morning

It was raining on the way there, we bought some utterly healthier food etc and it had stopped raining on the way out

Trying to tell us summat...

Best

So I haven't had too close a look yet but my foot does seem fully better now

But after coming back from gym Ed examined my legs and said "They are up a bit" so we will have to put them up for an hour s'afternoon

Iechyd D-ing

And tonight is the Christmas Folk Night at Iechyd Da, a week earlier this month but me and Freya are going together

And it was a bit entertaining. And Freya's Mum was in town so we didn't even need to take her miles home

Tired

So we had a session with Sara at the gym today, we started off on the bike and treadmill then worked our way around various moving weights in various ways machines. 

Gosh I was there for ages working at it today

Snowy

And when we left to see Sara there was snow/sleet on the ground, about half an inch thick. Thankfully it has gone by now

Better Still

And my feet/legs are better still s'morning. My legs both look as small as normal and my right foot seems perfect and my left foot just a little bit puffy. I took the last of my antibiotics s'morning so hopefully it is all finished

Swelling

So my feet and legs look much less swollen even today, so fingers crossed etc

OIAB

<sigh> So we are off swimming in a bit....</s>

And it was actually OK, apart from..... no it was OK

Nice Dinner

And tonight we had the first of my "easy prepare carbohydrates" with dinner and it was a bit delicious

YetAnother Morrison's Trip

So after dinner we are gonna head to Morrison's and buy some glue to try and stick together my now dead model of a pirate ship

Sigh

So I txted Sam s'morning and said "Won't be there today", she txted me back and said "GWS". THEN I txted her again and said "Second opinion, c u later, I will be there today"

And wow, that has done me good. My feet are much less swollen after half an hour exercising, like much less

Shopping

So I asked Timmy to take me to Morrison's (again) tonight and we looked for easy prepare carbohydrate. So I can branch out from Couscous or Super Noodles and they actually had a load for those of us who can't peel potatoes

Quiet And Doctors

So we had a quiet afternoon followed by a(nother) visit to the doctors. The Doc looked at my legs, said "Needs blood flow" and described me sitting with my feet up. For the rest of the week, if it is still swollen then we will go for scrapy things to find out where the infection is from
