Mobile Version

So first of all I linked seperately to a web page and a mobile phone version as there were some graphic issues. THEN I discovered in my already owned files how to do a phone version from the same URL, so I was able to take away the second link, knowing however you look at this that you get a visible version

Farmfoodsing

Then we popped out before dinner time and headed to Farmfoods and picked up more really cheap chips and some baguette pizzas. And DON'T MENTION IT some ice cream

It Feels Odd

So s'afternoon I got changed for the pool so I am just wearing socks, no sockings until I come home later. 
It just feels different in some way.....

Boxing

So I said to GGtGG that I want to head into...... B&Q? and fetch some screws and a hook and eye so we can put my birdbox up but he said "No, I have loads, instead of having to buy 100 to use 2 I will bring you in some on Saturday and I am sure there is some H&E in my cupboard"

Early Lunch

So in a bit I will eat some early lunch, then go and get changed into swimming trunx and clean clothes then in a bit longer we will head to Aqua Aerobics class/session
Hoo-flippin'-ray
And wasn't it fun, today with Llinoss, the woman who usually takes the extra Mondy class too. 
And I did today.... well there is one exercise they do where you put one leg forward and the other back and today I managed to get the heel of my right foot down to the ground, when it was in the back position. Summat I have been trying to do unsuccessfully for some years now but I managed it today

I Wanted Some Chocolate

So I was heading to the kitchen thinking "I want to get fatter and unhealthier" wanting a big piece of chocolate but instead I ate an apple.
WTF's going on with my head???

Finished

So that was the last of a series of busier and busier days. Finished now. Tomorrow it only sez 1 thing on my diary. OK it is fscking Aqua Aerobics but just that to do

So Next Week We Will Make.....

So this week I finished making my bird box and I am well proud of it. I thought I wouldn't be capable of owt and yet look at it. So when we hang it, hope for loadsa residents

Blinkin' Flip

So I have just bathed, napped, got my FES put on, hung out the washing, and now in 6 minutes we need to leave for the hospital in Llanelli
PITA.  And what a pain that was going to see the doc re my testosterone. Basically he didn't say or do anything useful. So we are headed back, I will cook then we are off to Men's Shed to hopefully finish my bird box

Cycling

So I have another 8km to cycle before I am finished having so much fun
Only two and a half now......

Busy Day

So today I need to do my mega gym, have lunch, have an early bath&nap then we are off miles East to see a Dr who is discussing my Testoserone jab, how effective it has been etc, then after dinner we are off to that Man's Club in Ferrryside to, hopefully, finish my birdbox

New Battery

And today I had to change the battery in my "switch lamp half way on" device which I have owned for 9 months IIRC and haven't had to do before. It was quite easy but it retold-me how important a replacement and is currently spare one iyswim

Good Game, Good Game

So I thought "What can I play as well as solitaire?" and downloaded on my mobile phone a free snooker game. Which took me a few days to master how to actually play it but now....... well tonight I was playing against the "Easy Bot", a kind of built in player, and early on in the game I was actually winning!!!!!

Headwaying

Then we headed off to a Headway Swansea meeting where we actually talked to a chap the whole time without playing games. He was a Brain Injury sufferer (Knocked off a pushbike years ago) and it was interesting talking about having that "get better" attitude instead of lying back in a hospital bed

My Brain Is Improving

And I have noticed a bit recently but today's evidence is so strong that I must tell you....
So s'morning before I got busy I got my clean clothes and put them in my bedroom so I could change after I had my bath later. Later on I just remembered they were there and came into my bedroom to start the bath process without bringing a duplicate set with me.
Like I would have done last year. It might not sound much but it is clear evidence that my memory is improving
OK, I didn't bring duplicate clothes nor did I have to peek into my bedroom first to check if I had done it

Ho hum

And we are off to Headway Swansea in a bit. Hooray but it is better than swimming in a not class.
So next week it is half term so no swimming but week after that I might try the other Aqua Aerobics session too?
Well that was OK. We didn't play any games, just sat talking to a chap called Bryn who was knocked off a push bike years ago. But he understood brain injury, having suffered one himself. It was interesting talking about this as most folk don't know how awful it can be etc. He was saying that his home language was Welsh, he didn't learn English until he was in school and when he woke up from his coma he couldn't speak English, just in his "Native tongue" of Welsh
And beside that, as usual we were sitting on seats that are so low that I used to be against using them at all, standing up with the use of a stick was still difficult but today I did it free-handed as it were, standing up then reaching for my walking stick. (OK, it took me 3 attempts but I did it)

Walkies

So we are heading off to the coast by Swansea (?) today for a long walk 'cos it's therapeutic
 
Well we did it. We parked opposite Joe's Ice Cream Parlour and walked kind of East-South-East for about an hour until we reached Verdi's but it was well too busy with folk having to queue so we walked back the way a bit to The George where we had a delicious lunch served to us in about 2 minutes.
Then we walked in the opposite direction for another three quarters of an hour but this time we stopped at Joe's Ice Cream Parlour and had a small refreshment before going back to the car and heading home.
AND we were out for about 3 hours walking and dining and I only pissed once when we were out, held in until we got back. Almost as well as a normal person
And it was raining on us some as we walked but I had instructed MM to bring the brolly from the boot of the car so he held it over my head quite effectively, while it rained on his head

*NEARLY* Not Runny

And my runny nose is loads better today. Still running slightly more than "not at all" but much less than yesterday

Winner Today

So yesterday there were two "error" codes there, then I solved them one after the other. Dunno why I was "being so clever" or what

But...

BUT I am being rather impressed with how easily/well the new knifes cut through veg
