Out

And we went out s'evening to just re-explore some places for me, so we went to Cross Hands and where there used to be a different cheapskate supermarker there is now a Lidl. We had a look around and I must say crazy stock they had and potatoes and beans etc

'Wimming Wednesday

Hooray, we are off in a bit.....

And NO, we got there, peeked inside and it was full of kids as it was raining outside so we said "Naah" and GGtGG went back to the car and put my bag back in the boot then came back in and took me to gym

But the one lesson we learned, after 10 mins on the bike it was hurting my right toes, I was just wearing sandals, I need trainers

Kitchen Floor Tiles

After the performance with trying to find a similar kitchen tile colour Alex nipped to the garage looking for summat else today and came back in with one of the two boxes of tiles he had found in the corner.

Oops

Wilko

So we went to Wilko s'morning and shopped for chest cream, mouthwash and flossy sticks. I walked in and out etc then we went off to gym and did 20 minutes on the bike.

I had said "can we just walk as I have already walked around the shop?" but someone objected and said "No, you missed gym yesterday, you need to get back on track" so I went to gym and 20 minutes on a "bike"

Wedi Gorffen

Wow, he's done it all

Dentist

And 10 minutes after he finished the floor it was time to head Dentistwards, where she was pleased with how good my teeth are after electric toothbrush, floss and mouthwash

I did walk down the stairs to get in, having left my 'chair in't car, and I walked back up the stairs when leaving.  That is so much easier every time I do it 

Walkies Under Pressure

So me and Timmy had to nip to B&Q to pick up cement &... so he could stick the kitchen tiles down again, where they started coming up last night. We drove to B&Q, he got my wheelchair out, and pushed it alongside me all the way in, ²⁄₃ of the way back to find the gubbins we needed, I walked back to the till, paid and walked all the way back to the car, I didn't need my wheelchair at all

I can now hear bang bang bang as Timmy gets up the tiles to recement them down

And that broke some of the tiles, we need to go back and replace them 

Wow. So we went back to B&Q but they had almost no coloured tiled so we nipped to Tile&Bath Co where we bought an...... a close, noticeable different but it is close. Timmy has been bang banging etc, got the site cleaned etc and has just started to lay. At a guess he should be finished about 5 minutes before I need taken to Dentist

What a morning, my timetable looked empty but this filled it up

New Date

And Denyse said in an email s'morning, "I am due to meet you same day as your parents coming over, shall we meet next week instead?" and as I can't insist my parents come the following week instead I'd better say yes

Hooray

Got the dentist today.

Checkup so shouldn't be too stressful....

Early Cooking

So s'morning I bought the last few ingredients as recommended by Julia (who I used to cook it for/with) so early s'afternoon I got stuck into cooking from scratch a pasta accompaniment. After my nap I will add some lentils, cooked sum pasta to go with and grate sum cheese then we will have a lovely dinner

Yes we did, what a difference lentils and bouillon make, it was lovely

And what a difference getting better makes. The pasta finished cooking, I walked from the front of the cooker to the sink to drain it, carrying it with both hands, no walking stick, no FES, I just manage it these days

Shop

So me and GGtGG went shopping s'morning as Timmy whose working tomorrow doesn't approve of Morrison's. We did our bit, went to about 27 other shops looking for salad cream sachets, couldn't find any. In the end we went back to Morrison's bought 1 mushroom for tonight's dinner and a small tube of salad cream

Why?

Well in the past, for about 20 years I had a cheese and salad cream sandwich most lunchtimes. Everything changed after my accident but I have settled down to having a small bread roll and a small piece of ready to eat cheese for lunch, with no salad cream. Until today, you could hear the noise as I tasted my favourite lunchtime snack....

Shopping

So Alex might be in charge of making me skint. I said "I wanna replace...." while he was doing my feet, he said "Look at....." and within about 4 minutes I had spent loads on a replacement for my bathroom, as now the drawer is way too full and there is no room etc

So we will have to go and pick it up after my sockings are on....

And just WOW, he put it together too. It had a really thick manual, loads of do's and don't's but he did it

Fixer

So Alex put my new £60 bit in the staff shower and it works again.

Hooray

Out&About

So "we" went out for a push around Carmarthen tonight. We went miles and saw loads of pissed people etc

Delivery

Then s'afternoon a chap knocked the door. I answered and he was delivering the parts for the shower that I had ordered that I thought the postman was delivering tomorrow

Gym

So after a dull wait about we nipped to gym and just good lord etc. It is still as little fun etc but I can just do so much more balancing etc

Busy Morning

So Alex is putting my FES on early so when GGtGG comes in we can go straight off to Aardvark because at 11 Sara is coming to see me for the first time in ages then at lunchtime I am going to my only weekly class at gym

Sigh No. I was paying at Aardvark when my phone rang. I pressed the wrong button and it said "Sara was trying to call you" so when I had finished paying and got back in't car I phoned her back. She said the A48 is closed just after end of motorway so we will have to call it off today. I am going on holiday on Monday, see you in 3 weeks?

And we came home from Aardvarking at 10 to 11, just in time, but she wasn't here!!

...And About

So me and Alex headed out for a trip tonight. We went up narrow roads neither of us had ever been up and found out way home again

Didn't She Do Well

While we were out for our walk I received a txt but I didn't look as I was busy concentrating on walking. a few minutes later we bumped into Freya who said "Did you get my text?, I said probably but I haven't read it yet" she said "No, need, I've passed my A-levels and am into college"

Walkies

So we went out for a long walk today instead of going to gym. So we parked at the end of Llamas Street/Water St then walked along the pedestrian bit past The Boars Head onto King Street (although this map is a bit "the names not here")  then back down past the old middle of town to the car
