Hippy New.......

Well Happy New Year to one and all. I don't have a hang over, no, don't be silly......

Actually I feel much better after bath and nap.....

I Cut Them All

And I tried it again sitting on my bed and I managed. I cut every one of  my toenails today. It is the first time I have managed in about 17 years!!

Clearing It Up

And today RoyGBiv is clearing up all the bits of plant that are growing up through my stones out front. He is peeling them off with a device so it will be OK for another few months.....

New Years Eve

So it is the eve of a........ another day tomorrow 😐

And we went up to the pub up the road last night and it was as busy as I have ever seen it. Still wasn't that busy but a fair amount of folk

But s'morning I have got a hangover so it must have been worthwhile

It's Thrown Me

I was on my way home after cycling today when I thought "Oh, Sam's class Friday afternoon" but then on reflection no, she had told us ages ago that she wouldn't be there today. BUT good lord, that has thrown me, it doesn't feel like a Friday at all, but yes, it is a restful few days to come.....

Morning has broken.....

Well, what a morning. Firstly we popped to the Drs to pay a parking fee and go in and get my script for cream for my feet and more asthma medicine.

Before we came home we went to gym and I cycled 10km doing 2 mins slower and then some time (between 1 and 2 minutes) half as fast again. By the time I was finished I was panting and sweating

And yes, I have no gym class s'afternoon like I usually do on Friday, it's Christmas etc

Haircuting

And I had another trim today

Gluing It

Then the posty came with a small parcel of mega oven glue and wipes to clean it off first etc. So "we" (actually RoyGBiv with me watching) got stuck in, took out the glass, took off the oven door and is presently mid glue

So to let the glue dry we had to go out for dinner, to the pub up the road. She complained how they had nearly no food left but I just had egg, beans and chips but I was impressed with how good it was. Well prepared. I complimented them on the sticker that we could see from our table which said it won food awards for the last 2 years so obviously even summat as plain as egg beans and chips tasted that bit more special as it was cooked with such care or summat

First Thing

Then first thing today we popped to More Reasons To Shop At and bought the usual plus a salad pack as we are not having an organic delivery this week and I bought double most ungooffable veg last week

Back To Normal

So everything is "open again" today so we have to go to fscking Aqua Aerobics class at 2pm

Aargh, no GGtGG has just come in and said "No Aqua Aerobics today, just normal swimming at 1 instead" so we will go a bit earlier      😟

And I did it, 8 lengths and various exercises. What fscking fun. But I struggled to make both legs move in the same way.....

Walkies Again

So we headed back into own s'afternoon, tried and failed to park on Lammas St, went round the block and tried again, still no so we popped up town and parked on King St, near the far end. From there we walked along to the dead court house, down by it and turned right and right again at the bottom and walked back uphill by Caffi Iechyd Da where we couldn't have a brew and bun as they are shut until next week.

But I do note how much easier it is walking up hill and downhill these days, It makes such a difference to my trip out

Phew

And we cleared up and put it all away today, got the living room back

Scathing

And Timmy was being most scathing about my Xmas pressie for the staff and didn't want to offer it to his replacement who came in s'morning

Walking About

And as we popped into town and just went for a walkabout up past the old court I noticed how much easier to a)walk uphill and b)walk back downhill than it was even a few weeks ago

HBD

So Happy Boxing Day to one and all

Hungry?

And we had so much lunch s'afternoon that I am still not hungry

And no, I didn't eat another pic all day.

Sad Start To The Day

And it doesn't matter that it is Christmas, my MOS still has to rub cream on my lower legs twice a day. And on my chest once a day, later

Don't be lazy

And no Neil, if you want a choccy you better walk the 6 ft to get it, don't push your chair over. Yes, it is mobile but it's not a wheelchair

It's Not Right

So I have just spoken to Sam and Freya on the phone, I hung up then I thought "Christmas Day, I need a glass of rum", but there is none in the house
