To Go Where

Then we headed out to The Warren, the place that I hadn't heard of until they accepted my delivery of organic veg last week. But ooh wasn't it busy and nice. We got the last seats at a table (on a Wednesday night!) and were surrounded by folk drinking and eating some delicious looking food. Timmy said "Me and my missus will come here to eat soon", it looked that good

We only had one drink there, after that we headed to my local and had a couple of pints there, we decided not to try Iechyd Da gig night

Out

And we went to the place that we went to to collect my veg last week and it was very busy (full of people playing games or eating loads) but after 1 drink there we headed to my local and had 2 or 3 pints there which was a bit special

FTPing

And the FTP program that I use to set up my webpage had a sulk today. It said "Connected" but just said "Uploading" for ages without actually doing owt. Eventually it did work and I was able to do a page very slowly then later I did another page and it was quicker by then. Hopefully next time I use it it will be properly fast again

Dun That

Well s'morning we popped and did the shopping things. Then over lunchtime we popped to the gym where I did various arm movement exercises then 1500 m on the rowing machine. I didn't feel that I was going so fast but it was still the quickest I have ever done that distance in

And for the first time in some time everything organic I had ordered arrived, their suppliers are obviously being well behaved this week

Thursday

So first thing s'morning me&Timmy need to pop to Iechyd Da to pick up my veg, to Morrisons (noisy link) to get the rest of the weeks shopping and to the gym to do...... gord nose what. Perhaps I need to try the upsteps thing again, without falling off it this week

Destroy The World

So after drinking out of my new cup just once I was getting the bowl out at bedtime to put my muesli into with milk overnight, when I picked it up and didn't grip it properly.

*SMASH*

GGtGG seems to have the extra job of sweeping up behind me, loadsa bits of broken crockery most of the time

Swimming

And we popped to the Aqua Aerobics class and it went an well as can be expected. I am definitely getting better, generally and specifically at the exercises there

A New One

And the posty brought a replacement for one of my broken things s'morning

Bicycle Races

So me and Timmy headed down to gym so Timmy could sit looking bored while I cycled 10km. Ho hum. So I did 5 and then said "Right, that'll do, lets go" but Timmy was insistent that I might be "The Boss" the rest of the time but he was in charge telling me to get on with it cycling

Useful Products

So I was glancing at a shopping website s'morning and came across such a useful product that someone has made and sold

I need one

Paid For It

So t'other day Timmy txt'd me to say that he had made the booking with the toenail chopper for next week, and he had to phone them and hand me the phone so I could already pay. Dunno why, perhaps just 'cos I am a newbie, hopefully next time it will be afterwards

My Novel

And in the book that I am reading ATM the heroes are locked in a prisons camp because they have advanced psychic powers.

And s'afternoon I am going to a Headway meeting, which makes me feel a bit like the characters in that novel, "I shouldn't be here, why am I here?"

Actually on the way there I was having a bit of a "Why?" conversation but the chap we were playing the game with was actually interesting. He was saying that after his stroke he has trouble with names and numbers, his brain usually works OKish but when he has to remember eg how much summat costs on the way to the till he can't. He was all in favour of the Headway group and exercises which made me a bit uncomfortable

Being Nagged

After Sara The Physio (I think) was nagging me a few weeks ago I have been practicing standing straight up, not doing it to one foot forward and one half the way back which I had to do since I learned to stand up again.

Yes, it is much more difficult but practice makes it easier. I need to move my bum slightly forward in my chair but then I can do it with no hands holding on etc, it is much more like a normal standing up action

Rest Of Red Stuff

And for dinner tonight we had the remains of the red stuff we had with pasta last night with baked potatoes tonight and it was even nicer.

Yum yum but it is all gone now

Walkies

And we popped into town today, parked a bit along King St, walked along, off the end to the old town hall, walked all the way down there, across and back up past Caffi Iechyd Da back up to King St and the car. It was relatively long but easier than last time I tried

I'd Forgotten

So I stopped watching the football about ¾ of the way thru as the result was fscking obvious and I knew MM needed food quickly after so we ate and both said "Yum yum" as I had made another pasta and red stuff c/w herbs and garlic etc, THEN MM said "Wanna go to this bingo then" which I had forgotten but we were late and they were only playing the last 3 games, which I so didn't win, then we sat there through the raffle call out which we hadn't been offered. But it was nice to see and be seen kind of doing my bit for the community

Staying In

And after a relatively nice morning when we did nowt it seems that that walk we were planning for s'afternoon might be damped out

Aargh

So I went to the fridge today and got 2 ingredients for the dinner I am cooking for tonight. 2, so in 2 hands, so I had no hand to hold my walky stick.

And extra therapeutic, I walked to where to put them, got out my camera, pressed "self timer" and rushed back halfway to pose

Different Noisiness Outside My Bedroom S'Morning

Baa baa they went

Watching Rugger

And we are going up't the pub tonight to watch Wales and Ireland play in the rugby.

I think I am a Wales fan but I suppose it depends on who wins

BUT first I need to do the weekly unhealthy dinner of na'an bread pizza and chips for tea

Ooh, didn't Wales win after an exciting game
