RHS Pic Crisis
So if I am trying to take pics with my right hand pressing buttons etc, also need to do that when it is plugged into my PC to transfer pics etc
Folding It Up
And tonight I washed the 3 towels that I had used @ swimming pool and experimented with taking 3 more out if the cupboard and replacing them. The point came later when the sun had dried the towels. I took them to the cupboard, folded then one at a time and was able to reach upward and forward and put them away, by myself. It is the first time since 2003 when I haven't required assistance with this task. Looking in the cupboard now they look properly away, not wrinkled balls of....
Farewell Wrinkly PC
So I said to Timmy again, "Is there an issue with this PC, it is so slow", he had a look and said "Nah, it is just too old". So the only think I use it for are playing music (and looking at dirty pics at night) he swapped the music store and speakers to a spare laptop and it has a link to all my vulgarity, so it seems so far to be about 18 times quicker. So we have put the old PC to one side, we will see how I get on with the substitute
My Calendar
And I changed the month on the calendar s'morning instead of 2 or 3 days ago and it contains a beautiful picture of one of the tourist treats on the north coast of Ireland

In My Book
So at the minute I am about ⅔ of the way through The Long Earth by Terry Pratchett and I am rather enjoying it. But today I was reading and came upon a quote
And that is the same quote I have on the first page of my website, my home page

WTF
And I was watching a program about driverless cars tonight, dunno what to say..... but I was impressed
No Hibernating
So I was looking at a way of switching my PC to not "hibernate", just "sleep" mode. So I investigated and found right click on START and goto COMMAND PROMPT. But it didn't work. What was going on? Ah, it didn't say COMMAND PROMPT, it said "COMMAND PROMPT (Admin)" which I had missed yesterday. Did what it said and my PC is behaving more like I wannit to
Still Improving
And today when I was cooking 2 dinners at once (one in the pan until tomorrow) I was hopping backwards and forwards around the kitchen without my walk stick and without holding on to owt to balance, just walking about like a proper person
Shirt
And today I am wearing a lumberjack shirt kind of thing over my T shirt. I noticed today when taking it off (as I was overheated) that I used to avoid the lumberjack shirts as they had buttons instead of a zip, which were hard to do up etc. Yes, they are still difficult but 10 times easier than 6 months ago as my hands are becoming so much more useful
Art For Arts Sake
So me and MM headed into town early and called into the Oriel Art Gallery in Carmarthen. It was excellent, some beautiful work. The assistant was talking with me about the art and he went into the back room and fetched another book to show me pictures relevant to our conversation. There were another 2 art galleries opposite, across the road, but we decided to head off round town for a walk and will call in next weekend to look at these 2 galleries

(Sigh)Friday(/S)
So after an early lunch we headed gymwards, but Sam wasn't there this week, it was another teacher who used to teach my ages ago. And she was commenting on how much better I am doing these days, which was nice.
But also marginally upsetting, if I am being unusual as I am getting better what does that say about all the other members of the class?

Iechyd Down Diddly
Good lord, but there didn't seem that many folk there at the beginning but by lord there were loadsa muso's, poets etc, all kinds of entertaining folk.
One woman read a poem which talked about "being able to walk faster" or somesuch so I went over to her table and said I felt that poem was aimed at me as I had been in a wheelchair for ages, learned to walk slowly, got faster every week....., she said "Stroke?", I said "No, ABI" and she said "Aargh, my daughter suffered a Brain Injury 5 years ago" and we talked for ages filling each other in on our stories. They now run a business together, despite her daughters mental issues
Bicycle Races
So here I am cycling away at gym. The sooner we finish today's 10km the sooner we can go home for lunch
Bother. Yes I finished somewhat later and just slumped panting etc for some time afterwards, no lunch yet!!
Then s'evening we are heading out to another Caffi Iechyd Da do, in town
This Used To Be So Hard
So flushing the right hand sided flush lever on the loo used to be so hard, I used to have to reach across with my left hand
Used to be difficult......

Fill Up The Freezer
Then after dinner tonight we popped out to Farmfoods to top up the freezer. The only issue we had is they no longer sell any Sweet Potato Frozen Chips but that was strictly a top up rather than needing some
Oh What Fun We Had
So we are heading to the Aqua Aerobics class in a bit.
My heart is full of joy.....
Sarcasm doesn't really suit me, does it.......
Well that was fun wasn't it

RHS
So today I took some photos only using my right hand to operate buttons etc, when I stuck up the webpage to that effect I noticed about a third of a screen below that one was one saying "My right hand is getting better"
So yes, like proof that it is kind of thing......
Random Pics but SO Important
So today I took some random pics out of the car using my right hand. Like I used to do before my accident but I haven't been able to do since 2003.
It isn't very important pics but being able to use my right hand in this fashion is important
