Grumble Again

I know I have complained before but it p*sses me off so much... So here I am lying in bed for my nap, naked, no covers over me, all warm enough apart from the toes on my right foot, the one that was nearly amputated after my accident

Late Birthday

As it happened Freya txted me s'morning and said "Wana take me out for a late birthday dinner, like u promised?" so we will pick her up later and have some fun

And it turned out to be rather fun, in the end

Quiet Morning

So I am having a quiet morning ATM, drinking a cuppa tea that Alex made then about lunchtime we will take ourselves to the swimming pool and hopefully do a few lengths etc

As it happened we couldn't. When we got there the pool was absolutely full of kids so instead we went into the gym and did some exercises.

Mmmm, definately possible

So s'afternoon me and Gareth took ourselves to Pontiets to look at another house. It looks promising, 10 minutes away from supermarket and there is a lovely view out the back. The only thing against it is perhaps the area is a bit too working class but I dunno if that will make a difference. I will ask Denyse to make an appointment for next time she is here

New Card

And today was the first time we tried buying anything with the new petty cash card. So I was a bit nervous handing it over but it just worked.  So all is well once more

...ing

So we nipped out to the market to buy another mop and bucket then went gymwards on the way home. I did all my exercises but on the "pushing up weights" machine I was really struggling with my right arm. Injection to improve that, hopefully, on Thursday.

But as we left the house there was heavy rain, once we had got in and started the car the sun was shining from a blue sky, by the time we were at gym it was raining again. The weather is traveling really quickly

Shooting a video

So s'morning I tried taking a video on my phone and sending it to my PC and putting it online. First of all when I entered the title of the video it said "Save...." but after some more research it works now. It isn't an exciting video but it is just me doing all stages of it by myself, not having to shout "Help" at any stage

Warmer

So as I was wearing a sweatshirt yesterday today I took it off again and left it lying about,
it is much warmer now Bertha has passed

Drying

And it is such a novelty that I better mention it again. I can now dry my right leg with my right hand

Ooh that's a bit exciting for me

Sara-ing

Then Sara the Physio came s'morning and did loadsa walking back and forward practice, keeping my pelvis straight with my 'stick in both hands etc.

I didn't particularily enjoy the exercises but I do enjoy feeling better

Fixed he said hopefully

So s'morning me and TechnoTimmy got stuck in to trying an email client, not the BT site that I have been using for.... ages and it seems to be working with all 3 of my accounts simultaneously

Walkies

And I have been practicing more than usual walking with my right hand s'morning even tho I have been doing much practice every other day. But it still makes me wonder, everything is more upright etc but it feels so unusual for me, still

Calmer

And it seems like a warmer windless day now, that Bertha thingy has passed now

Winterish

And this evening for the first time in a couple of months I had to put another garment on over my T-shirt

Perhaps it's this Bertha thingy and it will be warm again tomorrow, wait and see

Cold

So I have just had a nice warm bath and I am currently lying on my bed to have a nap. So my left arm is warm enuf, my right arm, both legs (and my bottom etc) I am all warm enuf apart from the toes on my right foot.

At a guess it is circulation related but it all comes back to my accident

Ice Cream Style Stuff

So just now I was having a treat, I had some frozen yoghurt stuff which looks like ice cream, tastes like ice cream but as far as I can read there are about half the calories of ice cream.

Am I right?

Early Shop

So today as it was in my timetable to go shopping s'afternoon we decided that as it wasn't raining we should go s'morning, we did and I was in the kitchen putting it away when it started to rain

The sun's back out over a nearly cloudless blue sky again by now (2.20pm) so just..... gerd nose

Only Happens When It's Raining

Oh, big thunder today

Solitaire

And I have just played the first game of the day and I won.

Which must be positive etc about summat

Wow, that's 2 out of 2 now, I'd better stop or I might get too excited

New Routine

So today, for the 4th or 5th Sunday in a row, we are gonna be learning about Neil's new routine. Nowadays Neil goes Supermarket Shopping(1) on a Sunday rather than a Monday when I am usually going swimming. OK tomorrow I won't be, Sara Davies is coming to see me at shopping time but I will go today as eg I need to have a nap in the afternoon and other business

(1) Which is minimal but they don't sell eg bread rolls in Aardvark
