Phew

And today Neil's Unwillingness was taken into account and we didn't head off to Laugharne to see the gig tonight....

Lighter

And today I am under 16 stone for the first time in a long time. Am I so much lighter because Ed the ex-barber, ex-care assistant and now nurse was working for me today? (And cutting my hair!)

Out

And when I walked into the pub up the street tonight one person commented on how he had never seen me walk before, last time he was in't pub I was stuck in my 'chair

Dinner Time

And we had that delicious Friday treat tonight too.....

-ing

And I went to gym and did loads of exercises. Yes, my limbs are still fscked but they are so much better than they were a few months ago........

One of the things I achieved was the getting down to your knees, crawling backwards and forwards then picking myself up. Even Sam said "I don't need to watch now, you can just do it...."

Manyana

So tomorrow we are off to Laugharne to see the special band playing

Aardvarking

So we went to Aardvark s'morning and spent way too much cash on food....

Sigh it's Friday

So s'morning to Aardvark then to gym for my class

He's Fixed It!!!

And after Mark did some WD40ing yesterday the bathroom window now opens again.

And, more to the point, it shut again 3 hours later

How Far?

So today me and Timmy headed out to buy some spinach to add to tonight's dinner (Dunno why?) then we went to Gym. Where I cycled the furthest I have gone since my accident. 10km in total. So yes, I feel a bit fscked now but.....

In just under an hour I managed it, just

Copper At Door

Then s'morning there was a knock at the door and it was a policeman saying "2 houses were broken into up the road yesterday, up your security" so.....

Then s'afternoon someone dropped this thru my letter box

More Cooking

So we had another made from scratch dinner, we had Green Beans with Tomatoes and New Potatoes (without the olives as described in the recipe) which doesn't really tell you how it was made etc but it was nice anyway

But First

But first we all nipped out to Aardvark and Morrison's to get the ingredients for tonight's dinner

Team Handed

So me and GGtGG and Mark have gotta go to the pool s'morning. Mark's advice has already helped so we will see if his teaching ill folk to swim experience helps even more

He just encouraged me, saying "Keep it up, you're doing well" etc, so.....

More Spectating

Then tonight I got to watch/help Alex make a delicious casserole

The video didn't work so we have 1, 2 and 3 parts

Gymming

And we headed to the gym s'morning and did various exercises on machines. Today, for the first time, I tried a Cross Trainer (noisy link) which was possible but made my head explode. You need to move your arms in a different direction....

On the video I was only doing the first exercise, for now......

Spectate @ Dinner Time

So today I had the first of my week long "Watch us cook" nights. So I watched Timmy make a Spanish Style Omelette which while nice was far too much hassle and I think a Normal British Omelette with oven chips eg would be nicer and a bit easier to cook

Swimming

So I went to the pool with Timmy, got in, did some exercises then set off swimming. So Mark had said, after last time when he was in there with us, that while still breaststroking that I should try moving my hands diagonally downwards while on a stroke instead of straight backwards. Now I had all sorts of issues with the new stroke but it was working. Timmy commented on how much faster I was swimming etc

Bored Tonight

We had a chat last weekend and I agreed to go see The Martian (noisy link) tonight.

But today I decided all by myself to go see The Suffragette next weekend instead but after GGtGG said "Well it is on at 7.20 tonight" and left it at that, OK, I am gonna use my CEA card tonight to see The Martian, and possibly next weekends trip out too. Timmy will be pleased

And it was a bit excellent, we were sat in the wrong place for vision but I coped

More Reasons

Today, just before lunchtime, we headed to More Reasons To Shop At (noisy link) and did my weeks extra shopping, but we didn't need and salad today, I had run out early this week so presumably we will run out even earlier next week
