The Weekend?

Is it really Saturday tomorrow? Where has the week gone?

Sneaky Shop

So as I finished the salad @ lunchtime I decided that if we needed salad I may as well get the other 3 or 4 things on my list for Sunday/Monday shopping so we did.

Again Alex said "No" to me asking him to push my chair behind us but yes, he was right, I can just walk the distance, all the way around the shop, not just the salad section by the door

And I suspect that someone criticised me for taking my chair into Farmfoods on Tuesday but I think that it is not much different to the dimensions of this shop so we will have to see when we are back

Proper Class

And I am off in a bit to my only weekly visit to a proper class at gym

So we arrived, walked up the stairs, walked all round for the class and did my 10 min cycle at the end. Then I used the lift to back down

Wheelchair stayed in the boot of the car

Expense

So me and Timmy headed to Aardvark and got the usual weeks shopping as well as an "add veg (or meat) curry" which I am gonna try instead of the casserole this week

And I had to give her my "Look how much I have spent in Aardvark" card as it was full with £20 to be paid back to me. She said that this was only the 3rd to be handed in so I obviously am an important customer

It's Fixed, Not That I Use It Much

So "the chappy" came and fixed my wheelchair s'morning. Not that I use it much but it's fixed anyway

Team Meeting

And (sigh) everyone was here for a "team meeting" this AM, I left them to it....

Becoming Habitual

So it is becoming a habit, to walk a short distance about my house without my walking stick. Every day and in every way noisy link I am getting SLIGHTLY better

Listen Timmy

Can it be true?

Fixers

And Timmy txted me and said "The wheelchair fixers are coming at some point tomorrow". That's quite good because I will be about all day tomorrow anyway as there is a team meeting happening

PoolFsckers

And "we" are heading to the swimming pool at lunchtime....

And we went and did it, it actually wasn't too unpleasant so...

No Garage Garden

And "he" announced yesterday that they had discussed to "garden in the garage" idea but as there is no drainage that was a no no. He sent me an email with a couple of alternatives but said "Don't buy these, wait 'til Wilko gets their spring items in, they will be much cheaper" and said that the plan is to put it at the RHS of the garage, on the piece that never gets driven on.

I think the 2nd link is the most appealing, wait and see. They will have to put a couple of breeze-blocks around near to the entrance and then it will be posh

Adblocker

When 'he' had to "reset" my email client all the Ads came back. So I went online, found AdBlocker and installed it. The ads were still there. So I panicked and gave up, figuring CleverITTimmy will be in here on Thursday. So tonight I just tried downloading it again and I noticed it said "This has been disabled by..... click to enable", clicked and tried restarting the email client. No fscking adverts, the big objectionable type, gone again now

Further Nuts Are We

Gosh, and I watched it for a number of hours again today....

Feed Me

And we had the last of my chic pea casserole for dinner, it was the last of it so tomorrow night we will have to have some frozen food

It feels so old fashioned, I have been cooking so much food for about a month

Jeroo

So we went to gym s'morning and did 4 exercises followed by a 10 min cycle. Gosh I am so much fitter than I was a few months ago, it it really noticeable

Stressful Interweb

So as my email was being filled up with spam and my interweb connection was ignoring what I told it to connect to we had to go into "settings", advanced, "reset". Which did work but eg my Blog password etc have been gone. I need Timmy to come back and tell me how to get rid of AdSense adverts which have come back since resetting

Well dun, Sir

It's a week now, this walking......

6 Days

And tomorrow, if tonight goes according to plan, I can announce that my wheelchair hasn't been in my house for a week. I have been walking and sleeping etc. So I had my accident about 650 weeks ago and it is only the last week that I have been wheelchair free.

0.0015% of the time or summat

So tomorrow I will feel the need to announce it to Ixion... It's like I really wanted it late last night but I thought "No, carry on...."

Minor Crisis

So we headed out to Farmfoods and picked up some bits but on the way there Gareth said "Oh look, warning light about tyre pressure" so we called into Morrisons to blow up the tyre, it was only 2 psi down, but the light is still lit. So at a guess me and Alex will have to take it in to the seller/garage tomorrow and see if they can fix it

A Number Of Things

Well me and GGtGG headed for the pool s'morning.

1) They said when we entered they the stairs still weren't working but because this didn't take me by surprise and make me panic I just stepped down and up on the steps

2) When we were in there GGtGG said "As you haven't been swimming for a while take it easy" and started off with a back stroke. But this time I was able to kick with both my feet, not just the left one, like it was going for the past many years, and it was so much faster than last time. I kept that speed up when I was swimming on my front too

3) Afterwards I was just able to walk from the car to the house, leaving my wheelchair in the boot, I suspect it is the first time I have walked after a swim
