Grumble

Then we went off swimming. And the shower in the disabled changing room works again. As usual I did loadsa exercises

Studying My Sleep

Then last night I actually wore my sleep study stuff which was a bit strange but I have done it. Wait and see if they give me some advice
Apparently I should be known as Normal Neil which is good, at a guess

Ooh

And Paul impressed me again (I know....) by fixing the outdoor string of butterfly lights. They were working until we lifted them yesterday to mow, since then only 1 bulb, next to controler was working. He checked along all of it, I said "No, it must be here" and in the end he found a piece of broken wire where I said. So scissors, pressing into place, insulating tape to cover the gap and all the lights light up again

In Hossie

Then s'afternoon I had to go to hospital to get given some equipment to monitor my breathing overnight. Then Paul will take it back in't morning.
If they think there is an issue with my breathing they will then take action, apparently an oxygen cylinder and some pipes up the nose is likely

Emergency muesli shopping

So last week as they had no Organic Delux Muesli in stock I bought a small bag of normal which ran out s'morning. As we were on the way to Aardvark we saw the Essentials lorry pulling away sojust in time
I walked the whole way from Wilkinsons car park the whole way to Aardvark and then stood up and waited for them to weigh out what we needed
Then we went into Wilkinsons and bought a garden rake because when "he" cut the grass yesterday it left some bits behind

Fixing

And today Paul is getting stuck into fitting handles to my dining room chair so I can pull it closer to table etc. The ones that me and Alex bought yesterday but Alex bottled out and wouldn't fit them. But Paul is coming across as less scared...

Animation

So about 27 hours after I started I suddenly thought "Ahhh..." so now we have an animated version of a page with 2 pics in.

New Socks

And tonight, for the first time, I am wearing my new socks/stockings combo, it feels a bit strange (different) but I think they will actually do my legs more good and actually stay in position on my knees. If I get on with them I will have to contact the Dr and ask for another pair

Counting

So I was in bed just counting because... dunno why but I was. But if my memory was gone (like it was) I wouldn't be able to remember that eg 30 came after 29. What a thought...

Shopping

And we went to Morrison's and did our half a weeks shopping (as I am going to SoS on Friday) but mental issues and I bought a whole weeks Blueberries

Early Bird

So Alex  came in at 8AM s'morning as Ed is off to nursing early.
I haven't even had breakfast yet...
Phew, I have now...

Pink

Good lord, pink is my favourite colour

Cutting

And as my barber MOS was in here today (unusually) I had a going to SoS haircut

Sore Leg

And as I was trying to make my right knee bend more yesterday, to ease my walking, today it hurts more when I walk at all

Shopping

So today me and Timmy had to go to the Ex-Tesco shop now Wilkinson's in Carmarthen. There he had to buy (with my petty cash card) a new shredder to shred paper before throwing it away, and I bought some Toilet Duck loo keeper clean and weed killer for the garden

Walking

And as I am trying to walk better I have been exercising my right leg. But it just won't move forward from the ankle so everyone who sees me walk says "Straight leg" but I can't help it, it just won't bend
And Timmy says it is much more complex than that, it is because my......... ged nose, sorry, np, perhaps attached to, somehow because the connections are well complex, attached to my ABI

Next

Then, on the way to Aardvark, we had to pop into the Doctors and get the 'script for my new shorter stockings(1). AND we had to ask for a urine sample bottle (or piss bottle as I phrased it) so I can take one to the diabetic Dr next week

(1) And they took the script off my in the chemist and said "Should be in on Monday"
Then we finally made it to Aardvark. Where, again, I left my chair outside, walked up and down the slopey bit to the back room, bought loadsa fruit and veg etc then stood, queued to pay, all on my own two feet
Tonight we had pizza made with half stuff
from there and as ever it was delicious.
But tonight we had it with sweet potato chips which
were equally nice but a pain to lift after cooking 

Looking

Then, as soon as she had left, we went out to look at the next house, just over the main road then immediately turn left so not far away. I thought it was nice, but it needed some work and there is a step in both back and front so perhaps not that nice after all

Toenail Cutter

And the chiropodist came and made a big difference to my right big toe, she cut it all back but now there is a kind of scar where it has rubbing for ages but it is no longer rubbing, I am so grateful.
She cut my other nine toes too but this one was the difference

Gosh

A busy day and after watching her being honoured in school we had a dinner with Freya which I still had to buy even tho it was my birthday
