More Terry

Well I got another Terry Pratchett book today to carry on reading. Lord it's hard choosing what to read on my Kindle but I am a big fan, of Terry and Kindles

Because I couldn't read for so long after my accident, 'til someone bought me a Kindle and I couldn't read very much at a time then as I was so out of practice

Oh What Fun We Had

And it is Aqua Aerobics at 2PM today.

Hooray, what fun....

And when I was in the pool today I knocked my toe against the wall. It wasn't very hard etc but it was the left big toe, the one that has almost no nail and it fecking hurt

Terry

And today I finished reading another Terry Pratchett novel which I enjoyed enormously. At the end of the book it was saying this was his last novel before he died but obviously he was working to the end and it was worth it

But what shall I read next?

Fark, but I couldn't read at all for so many years after my accident, not until I was bought the Kindle device which changed my life......

Bicycle races are coming our way

So me and RoyGBiv headed to gym and today I got stuck into cycling. And today I recalled that it was a 10KM ride not a 40 minute ride like I did last week. But they are nearly the same, it took me 42.4 minuted to cycle the 10KM.

But it's done....

He Fixed It

So today I told Mighty Mark about the telly in the living room, the one that GGtGG hadn't been able to get working over the weekend. He had a brief look s'morning and said "I will have a proper look when you are in bed s'afternoon" and when I got back up it was working again. The "aerial" had come unplugged behind my computer miles away from the telly but connected by an obscure wire. So I was able to switch it on, change channel, said "Ta, it's working again" and switch it back off

I can't recall what I wanted to have on in the background but that's what started this saga

What's The Point

So for today it sez in my diary travel miles away to a Headway meeting, they are a Brain Injured team. But the only point I see in going is it stops me having to go swimming....

And "Oh what fun we had", dunno I socialised a bit with two new members and lost at a game repeatedly

All Good News

The Gruniad tonight

Walkies

And we popped into Carmarthen just as it was getting dark, parked at the junction of Blue St and Lammas St, walked up Hall St to King St, part of the way along then back down by Iecyyd Da to Chapel St and back to the car. It was just starting to get dark when we got back to the car but was pitch dark by the time we got home

Hailstones

And s'morning I thought "What's that noise?", looked out the window and it was a heavy hailstorm. It has passed now but just "Wow" etc

Tafarn

And we went to t'pub tonight and I was as rude as possible with the barmaid. 3 pints I had

Saturday

Golly, my diary is full for today.....

Friday Night Dinner

And as Timmy wasn't working today I was able to make the traditional Friday night dinner of na'an bread pizza and chips. As usual it was fscking lovely.

Yum yum

Proper class.

So every Friday I go to the only gym class that I go to every week now. I think it is about the 5th or 6th up on the scale of "exercise harder", now I go to the hardest session. So full of joy, I like the effects of 'getting better' but the actual process is a bit stressful/difficult

Gordon Bennett, well that is finished now. Yes, it is flipping hard work but I am getting better. A couple of just acquaintances told me how much better at it I am getting, seperately. AND doing the stand up, move your legs apart, then back together exercise I was moving and standing on both legs for the first time in gord nose how long, I am just getting better and better

Fun fun fun

Bollock knees. So I have just had the last of the Spag Bol I made last night with some fresh spaghetti. Oh it is such fun eating spaghetti, such fun

Food Fetching

So s'morning we pop to Caffi Iechyd Da to pick up the organic delivery, then to Morrisons to fetch the rest of my weeks shopping then Timmy will no doubt say "exercise loads" in some respect

Well t'is done, we got to park in the ultimate space today so I had less walking to do. And yes, we are off cycling in a bit.....

Yes, I did it, 40 mins cycling. And today I didn't have a rest until after 20 mins so I must be getting fitter

My Flu Has Gone

So I am flipping well enuf to go to the Aqua Aerobics class just after lunch.

Hoo-flipping-ray

And oh what fun we had. Yes, I am better than last time, better than time before etc but just fscking well sick of it

But I did manage the floating on your front, lift feet off the bottom thingy which I would have been able to do years ago but have had some difficulty the last few years but I managed it today

UberHectic

Then MM said to me today "And there's that comedy club at The Lyric tonight", I said "I think today has been a bit full, I might give it a miss", he said "You have already bought tickets, they are hanging on the wall in't office"

Lordy, that was 95% empty but the few folk gathered at the front all enjoyed it. Including myself. At a guess there were about 40 folk there (max) but we did all laugh and clap

AND I have already bought tickets for  Tues 21st March too, so I hope that is fuller(1) and equally fun

(1) Hopefully King St will be open to traffic again, it was closed tonight so we had to park in the car park at the end and walk along

Hectic Day

So s'morning I have an appointment with my Dr about Diabetes, dunno what they are gonna make of it, it doesn't feel bad so hopefully.....

Then after an early lunch we have to drive miles to see The Physio around Cardiff somewhere to do even more fun

Well yes, s'mornings appt went well. After I had been in the waiting room for about 1 minute she called me, weighed me, took blood pressure etc and was very positive about the diabetes risk. AND she took reference and put me on the toenail cutter list, so some hospital will be in touch at some point to make an appointment to cut my toenails

Well the physio session with Sara was as exciting (and hard work) as usual

Self Control

Then tonight we had to head down to Farmfoods to top up the staff T and coffee and I just walked past, with only a murmur of "I want 17", the big tubs of ice cream. Right past I strode

Gord but it was hard but I managed

Two Dinners

So tonight I was cooking tonight's dinner and making a pot of veg/tomato sos for tomorrow. The casserole cooked quicker than I thought so we could have eaten in tonight except there were spuds baking for tonight so.... but I cooked 2 dinners and didn't even make too much mess
