It Was Broken

So s'morning my web page half disappeared. I went looking for it and it said "Nah, summats broken, try mend it?" then spent ages 'mending it'. Dunno what it did but it found the many missing pages etc and put it all back together. It finally got fixed about 2 mins before MightyMark said "Gym now then".....

'Wimming

So today I am going swimming with my keen, teacher of disabled swimming, MOS. But first of all we need to pop into the disabled tat shop and get more ferrules, tips for my 'stick

Which we did. Quiet start to the day then we headed into tat shop and picked up 2 THEY ARE NOT CALLED FALLAFELS then headed to pool

Where my teacher/instructor did well at his advising me. I did 6 lengths and many exercises

Phew

And the scary wind has gone again, it was 65 mph earlier, it is back to 12ish 8 now

Bread Knife

And I had to call Timmy tonight, I couldn't get the knife thru the swede. He looked, said "We need a sharp knife", and took out one with no bristles on it, unlike the knife I had been using by mistake.

After I had eaten and washed up etc it occurred to me, that knife that I was trying (and failing) to cut the veg with was commonly called a Bread Knife

Us Brain Injured Chaps can sometimes forget simple, sensible things

.... Miller

And it is so windy and raining that I have just switched the taking steam out of the bathroom machine back on as I think opening the window is a bit of a no no

10 Improvement

And Windows 10 doesn't seem to need me to switch off Yahoo mail every time I leave the PC because it just seems to come back on when I touch the mouse which it didn't do with the last version of Windows. If I left it then nowt would happen when I touched the mouse or keyboard, I would have to hold down the power button for 10 seconds to make it emergency power down then switch it back on etc to look at emails etc, but today I was experimenting with leaving and it just seemed to come back on

I have stopped trying to figure out Microsoft Edge browser, and just switched back to Google Chrome and it seems to work.

Owww

Ow, so s'morning I had a "Criticise Timmy's bed making skills" session as he had to change my bed but, woe is me, I was a bit stuck for stuff to criticise him on

Snooker

Good lord but I have been watching the snooker on telly for hours already today

Unexpected Shopping

Then, after dinner, we nipped out to Morrison's (noisy link) as we had run out of salad/lunchtime, but I decided to get the whole of my weeks shopping. At a guess we might need to buy a few days salad next week but we shall see how it goes

Win 10

So I have had Windows 10 installed for a couple of hours now, dunno, it's......

Friday Night

And it is make Pizza night again.....

Yummy scrummy in my tummy

Friday Morning

So we started the busy Friday as usual. First of all we went to Aardvark and spent loads as usual on healthy food and drink then we came back to put it away.

While we were back my PC said "Free version of Windows 10, click" so I did and then had to go out to my second busyness and leave it installing

Then we went to gym where as usual I was the star of the show and now I can do so much down on the floor with Sam before getting myself back up

Then we came back to find the PC still installing etc, I had my lunch before it was working again. Dunno what to think, I will have to wait and see

Out

Then we are going out to Iechyd Da (noisy link) folk night tonight, hopefully Freya will wake up early enough to be picked up on the way

No, I spoke to her mother who woke her up, the 2 of them are coming into town earlier tonight so Freya will meet me there, hopefully

And she was so knackered that we boogied until about 10 then we left for the night.... Freya hasn't been to bed last night so hopefully this will let her get a pattern back.....

Gym

Then later we headed to gym and after the workout Timmy said "You haven't done 10 miles for ages" as I did 5 mile cycle

Well

So the tyre fixer came s'morning and tried and tried to fix my 'chair. No, it was well flat. He had size... and size... tubes but none to fit my wheelchair. Luckily he had another 'chair in the back of his van that had been returned to him s'morning so he was able to leave me that and say "I will give you a ring when we get the bits you need". So Timmy is busy transferring my 'stick holder to the 'new' chair

Flat Tyre

And when I got out of the pool my wheelchair had a flat tyre. Someone pumped it up before we got in the car but it was flat again within half a minute. The tyre fixer is coming out tomorrow morning so until then.....

Then at the time when eg the washing was finished I am usually in my wheelchair by then but I had to carry the boxes of clean clothes on my feet

And generally just walking about is difficult now, generally I have been in my 'chair for a number of hours now.... See it as therapeutic....

So it's 11.30 PM now and the only wheelchair I have used today was at midday going into the swimming pool. Fark. So I don't really need one so much? Well I had the advantage of requiring Gareth to stir the stir fry tonight but apart from that I have done it all on my feet. No, I asked him to take the bins out  which I usually do sitting down but the rest of the night.....

Sigh

So we are off to the swimming pool in a bit.....

And amongst other stuff I managed 8 lengths breast stroke... (Which was my big target so that means I never need to go to the swimming pool again?)

Out & About

So then me and Alex headed out.

First of all we popped into the walking aids shop by the railway station in Carmarthen to fetch more ferrules for the end of my walking stick. They had none in the right size but they have already ordered a load and will have them in stock by the weekend. So Mondays Diary says "Go back..."

Secondly we headed to gym where I did loads of "extra 5 kg" exercises then 10 mins on the bike

First Time In A Number Of Days

And today I won my solitaire game quickly.

For a number of days it has taken me a number of tries but not today

Unexpected Trip Out

Then s'afternoon we had a new trip to make, we had to head into town to buy a new hoover. Bits fell off the old one s'morning, it was say goodbye. While I was in bed Timmy got online and ordered one from Argos which we had to pick up. It was £120 reduced to £45 so hopefully it is a bargain. It seems to be doing it's job now (I can hear it) so hopefully....
