2002

Good lord. In the past I was a reader, since my accident less so. I got a Kindle which helped no end. Then I was preoccupied with doing other stuff and forgot about it.

Then last week I started reading again, I thought "What?" and installed "2001 - A Space Odyssey" and no other books.

And tonight I have just finished it. Just wow etc. What shall I read now?

Light Late

And we nipped out in the car tonight and it was still light so much later now....

Bewildered

And as Sara left so late and I then had to get on my PC b4 bath etc and then I needed to nip to More Reasons To Shop At.... to get some greaseproof paper in order to cook the delicious dinner we had I just haven't been able to do any gym

But as Sara commented the hairs on my legs are coming back big style, like they were before my accident. There is still a way to go but I am getting there

Nag nagety nag

So Sara came round this morning and we went out and walked half way up the street, all uneven etc, without my wheelchair accompaniment. So then I had to walk back which I did.

Then she made me walk into the kitchen and prepare lunch on my own two feet. So she reckons every day I should walk into the kitchen, make my lunch etc etc and walk back out afterwards

Loo

Still, I am sorry but going to the loo now, closing the door with my right hand and standing up thru pee.......

X-r-size

Well we nipped to the gym s'afternoon. Timmy said "No need for treadmilling, you walked so far s'morning" so I did full 15 minutes on an exercise bike followed by 3 of my weight lifting exercises

Walking Everywhere

Then s'morning we nipped to Morrison's. I was wheelchaired thru the rain 'til we were through the front door. Then I stood up and pushed my trolley. Until after we had left the shop and walked back to the car

There was a bit of an attitude, every time I moved my right foot forward it hit the trolley. Timmy advised me to bend my knee much more and it didn't hit when I was walking then

Raining

And it is raining loads again today (and yesterday) but the river thru Carmarthen, the Towy,  seems less overfull and flooding than it was a couple of weeks ago

Well it's dry now, s'afternoon. Still cold and windy but dry now

Fredumpkins

And Freya came round and went straight to bed to have a nap.

Because she does feel comfortable being in her Daddy's house I guess

And we can't wake her up to have her dinner

Out Looking

And we went out & about looking at this property we had seen. No, it doesn't look as nice in real lift. On one side there is an enormous building keeping the light out and around the front there is a beautiful garden leading onto a busy road.

So we added that to the no list instead of "More Potential"

Birthday Pressie For Myself

Oh dear, I bought one today

Measuring

And the chap measured my legs s'morning as he does every day and my right leg is the narrowest it has ever been since we started measuring

Quiet (wet) day

So today I am having a relaxing day. ATM I am charging my Kindle again....

Pool

So I was just playing a bedtime game of pool, I broke, failed, the PC played, scored with all but one of his coloureds, I tried, scored with all of my coloureds and the black in one go, one turn.

I WON!!!!!

Looked At One/Two

And we went back to have a second look at a house with Paul but he was anti it for many reasons. It was built before the regs changed so the doorways need widening, the kitchen needs knocking thru etc.

So ultimately we decided no

Then later we went to have a first look at one which looked nice. It did, the house looked lovely, the garden looked lovely but it seemed to be next door to a council estate, downmarket and if I am gonna spend that much on a house, nice neighbours are essential

Gymming

So me and Gareth went to gym. I had my FES switched off for 90% of it and I was able to keep my foot straight. And I was standing and walking for the whole hour. As I was feeling a bit smug about my progress not one but 2 women seperately told me that they can see a difference in me nowadays

It ASDA be....

Gosh. So Julia messaged me and said Toby has run out of credit, can you phone him, so eventually I agreed to open an Asda account and say "Click and collect" and Toby will fetch shopping tomorrow

What a performance, there is a minimum spend on the account and I don't know what Toby likes now but.....

Weight Lifting

So s'morning I went to gym with my new instructions that Sara sent t'other day and as it was confusing going "What machine?" I got Alex to take some photos which I put together and printed out so next time we will at least know most of it

But oh it was hard work

At Last

And I lost one game of solitaire after another today but I have just (at 7.40pm) won my first game of the day

I am getting better

Just got out of the bath and I was using my right arm to dry my right leg.
