What A Performance

So we went to Ceir Cawdor Cars in Carmarthen, popped the car in for it's checkup, walked from there the number of hundred yards to the Cafe that used to be Aardvark when I worked there. Had a cuppa tea, a very nice bun then headed back. We got back, waited 5 minutes then she came out and said they couldn't find any faults on the car. Wait and see at a guess

Gymming It

And I popped down to the gym and did hard exercises for 20 mins. A sweat was broken into

Lunges

And as I had been taught to do exercises called Lunges In The Kitchen and then couldn't go in my kitchen for a week they had kind of fallen through. But s'morning I have restarted the exercise scheme

And this evening too. Lets get back in routine....

Warm

So I am lying in bed without anything on my top half. And no covers over me, it is that warm at half past one in't morning

Fr Ted

And tonight I found an episode of Father Ted on telly and I am rather enjoying it

Missing Him Already

And Tim announced today that in a few weeks AwfulAlex is leaving my employment, he has found another job so he will be leaving soon

Swimming

Then me and TerribleTimmy headed to the swimming pool. Apparently my lengths were much quicker today so dunno, summat must be improving

FES-ubble

So s'morning it occurred to me.

So I haven't had the FES on yet today but it has already done me so much good. I am walking almost without concentrating and my right foot is sitting flat on the floor, not all trying to turn upside down like it was before I was fitted with an FES device in the first place

Table

And earlier when we were sitting at the dining room table to eat I noticed that it had gone wobbly. MM looked at it and said "Allen key later when you are in bed napping". He did and it is much better now, I can press on it to stand up with no fear of it falling apart etc

Cooking

And for the first time in a week I had to get knives and boards out and actually cook from scratch the curry that we are having for tea tonight and the foreseeable future, it is a large saucepan

Out

Then just before lunchtime me and MightyMark went out for a drive about. We popper out to Narberth and just walked over the well uneven up and down pavement. It was better on the other side of the road but I said "Therapeutic" when MM suggested crossing over. Eventually we called into a café and had a brew

Luck Or Skill

Taking this pic under my porch tonight. Luck or judgement?

Neighbours

And s'morning GGtGG said "I have just been talking to your neighbours and they wondered it they can come and see your kitchen floor as they might want a new one?"

So they popped over later and were well, vocally, impressed with my new tiled floor. So I suspect they might be contacting the fitter....

Dinner Where?

So we had dinner in the kitchen/dining area tonight and already it doesn't feel like a novelty. I am used to it again, phew

Mayo&Chips

After a conversation about fattening foods that I had t'other day I thought "I haven't tasted that for nearly 15 years" so tonight I tried it with my Sweet Potato Oven Chips. Mayonnaise and Chips. I had forgotten how good it tasted (even tho it's not doing me much good) just yum yum it was

Walkies In Town

Then s'afternoon I was feeling a bit twitchy and GGTGG said we needed some shopping so we drove to town parked on Lammas St opposite the new Aardvark and set off walking to Wilko's. We went in there got about half way to the back when GGTGG said "I need to go right to the back of the shop for some XXX. Wanna wait here?" But I said "No, it's theraputic" and followed him right to the back for some goods. Then we queued up and paid then left. On the way back to the car I said "Aah,  Poundshop, want..." so we went in there and walked around until we found what I required. Then we queued, paid etc then walked back to the car. On the way GGTGG commented on how different it feels being in town with no wheelchair.

Lunch In Kitchen/Diner

Then today we, me & GGTGG, sat in the dining area to have our lunch, for the first time in nearly a week. It felt good

Beginnings Of Back To Normal

So my MOS is coming in early today so "the two of them" can get stuck into putting furniture back etc into the kitchen. So hopefully breakfast today will be my last meal in "there". IIRC they can't put the washing machine back until tomorrow as it counts as heavy so...

No, mistaken I was. They were saying that yesterday, to today is tomorrow IYSWIM. 3 loads of washing done and dried and put away today

Even Tho

And even tho the tiler has finished there is no furniture in the kitchen until tomorrow when it has all dried properly etc so me and Alex are still going out to eat tonight. At Pizza Express to keep up a Friday Dinner tradition

Didn't He Do A Good Job

And the tiler has left today, he reckon's the job is finished and I might agree
