Why Not?

And why did I never experience anything like this when I was in a care home?

FES Crisis

So we couldn't get my FES to work on the way to gym earlier. When we left I put it back on and it was working then if I stuck my right hand out horizontally to the right. After we got out of the car it had died completely. Roy changed the wire etc, no avail. So he phoned "them" and they said they would sent out new bits. Dunno. So not going out tonight, we will see if GGtGG has any more luck tomorrow

Tonight

And tonight we are going to the Men's Club again but it feels a bit strange. As we have nowt to make what shall we do there? Roy said "Just go along and chat" but that feels strange too, what do I have to chat about?
Now I think we have called it off. As we are having trouble making my FES work today and as the Men's is a standing on your own two feet exercise "we" decided no

Stroppyness

So we popped to gym earlier and I got stuck into the cycling machine. I did half the distance required, I stopped after 5 km instead of doing 10 but did say "What other machine should I use?" so then I went on and did some "Pulling arms backwards" exercises
I did get stroppy at RoyGBiv, as he was trying to beat me so he had time to recover afterwards but I had to say "Stop it, you are going too fast and I am going as fast as I can manage"

It Doesn't Drip

And I have noticed everywhere in my house that there is no longer the sound of the tap in the kitchen dripping in the background. It wasn't too loud before but my house is quite small etc so you could pretty much hear it from everywhere. No more
Possibly you might say "Everywhere??  OCD" but I could hear it

Late Dinner

And as I was eating with my Dad all weekend the food is slightly out of time, so I had to spend ages cooking big food s'afternoon. Except I had to go swimming so we are on target to have a late dinner tonight
Ooh yum yum, in the end. Not only did I think it was delicious so mid MagicMark which is saying summat
So we ate tonight's and there is enuf for another 2½ nights, so it is all in containers, day and a half into freezer (it is already marked with date) and one portion into fridge ready to eat tomorrow

Drowning

So (Hooray) there is no Headway meeting today so we are heading to the swimming pool (Sh*t) for an Aqua Aerobics session.... It's called Waterworks on a Monday, I have no idea why......
Well that was done. I can't remember exactly what I was doing at the time but there was one exercise that I haven't been able to do properly in nearly 15 years but I did it today. It is 15 minutes shorter than the Wednesday session but more hectic/hyper, value for money

Restart

And my PC was getting slower and slower tonight, so I clicked "Restart" it restarted then couldn't get it together to open any page, neither mine or my email. So I had to go out to the hall and press the technical "Restart" on the router and as if by magic it all came back to life.
Phew

Blog Pics

And the way of putting pictures into Blog posts that eventually worked again last week has died again, it wouldn't work today

Winner

For ages.... at last

Feel Strange

And I just feel a bit odd tonight, well perhaps not odd, just a bit strange. As my Dad was here for the last couple of nights now tonight he's no longer here

Send Them Away

And we loaded into the car s'morning my freshly made bat box to go as a gift to Dink's wife, Nora, she is in charge of putting it up, as we don't own any trees and it's hard to find a bit of the house 10 ft off the ground and facing south

More.....

And today I suddenly realized that I was walking about the kitchen without my 'stick, again


Have A Banana

And I have just gone into kitchen for some snack type biscuits and instead found that I am a bit behind with eating bananas this week as I have been out at mealtimes with my Dad so I ate a banana instead
What is the world coming to

Stressful Morning

So MM put my FES on at 9 s'morning then we popped down and fetched Day. Immediately after the handover Roy drove us to Cardiff Airport where we dropped him off again.
It was just very strange, seeing him in a grieving state and pleased to see how well I am doing too. Odd and unpleasant but we did it
Well he has just txted me, Dink picked him up at the airport and he is safely home

Magic

And earlier on Mark tried to phone Diablo's but couldn't get thru, while I was in the bath he tried again and managed to make the only vacancies for early tonight be mine so we are off out after fetching Dad later
Well after tonight's dinner I was looking for a MOS to tell that I enjoyed the food so much that I want to marry the chef

So.....

So s'morning we popped to fetch my father then came back here for the handover. After that wew headed into town, parked on Lammas St and walked up the hill past the county building onto King St. From there we walked the whole length of King St, turned left just before the library then left again and along the run down side street back towards town
After calling in to the Old Aardvark Shop which is a cafe now we had to leave there as their coffee machine was broken so we actually had a delicious lunch in Waverley Stores
Then we dropped Dad back at the hotel, I will nap etc and we will pick him up later

On The Way

So we are half way along the M4 to Cardiff airport and my Dad is in mid air getting here too
So we went to the airport and picked him up. On the way back we called into Penllergaer Services and had an early lunch as we all were heading to gym. So after we had dropped my Dad's goods at the hotel we all went to gym where it was a bit strange, as my Dad hasn't seen me exercise for some time it was a bit odd being able to do the exercises to that extent
Then we took Dad back to hotel for nap and I popped home for the same reason
THEN again we all called into Tafarn Y Tanerdy where we had a delicious dinner before dropping Dad back at hotel as we were popping out to Llanelli to see Phill Jupitus who was actually rather entertaining
Pant, pant, exhausted today, tomorrow will be easier but......

Division

And I was puzzled tonight thinking "How does one use a divide symbol?" but then a bit further looking I found a built in calculator

Start With SO

And just glancing there are 3 sentences just in today's blog starting with the evil word
