OCD

Not that I suffer from OCD but  I was eventually able to finish a game today. Most of the other dates for games have 2 or 3 dots to celebrate finishing but the bottom left one here (and a few other earlier dates) have got no stars at all because it took me loads of attempts to actually finish it

Bother

So MM came in s'morning and saw my towels etc in the hall and said "Oh, are we swimming today?". I said "Yes, haven't you got your trunx with you?" hoping in the extreme but he said "Nah, they live in the back of my car, that used to be my job"

Bother

Well didn't it happen.  ¾ of an hour of jumping etc. And I did feel that I was better at standing on just my right foot and kicking with the left. And I hardly had to hold on to the side at all, my general balance is well better

It's Chilli Tonight

Minus what?

Walkies

So me&Timmy headed out for a walk s'morning. Timmy said "Head to town walk up......" but I replied "No, lets walk up to the community center and see what's on. It's up the hill, past the pub but there is no problem, I can walk that far (and back) without any problem. Some bits are scarier than others as the pavement is well uneven, been dug up in parts but I could walk the whole way.

Having done that I can now say "There are no advertised *do's*"

Rugger

Well Wales are proving themselves better at rugby than Scotland s'afternoon. 27-0 in the first hour

34-0 and there are still 5 minutes to go

Well 34-7 it was in the end, Scotland scored at the very end

More Reasons To Shop At....

And we had to nip to Morrison's s'morning and pick up a bottle of org olive oil as I finished the last when cooking s'morning.

But I didn't take a basket with me as I had to resist the chocolate treats, I just carried the oil in my hand

Pubwards

So we went up to the pub tonight and drank some of their beer from a micro-brewery in the West Country, near Bristol and they are advertising a mega band next Friday but as I have to go to the Drs and have a jab in't morning I dunno if I am up for it

& Chips

So we had the na'an bread pizza and chips for dinner. We went back to smaller 2 na'an breads inna pack this week but it was good and big enough

Isn't She Wonderful

Well I have to go to see that Sam (noisy link) today.......

Gord, dunno what to say, I am getting better every week. Today I was doing the stand up and exercise with no stick and no chair to hold on to, using both arms and standing on both feet. Sam spoke to me at the end and suggested at some point taking a video of how much better I am at various exercises to send to someone else who was involved in my early care

Booking 2

And we have just booked the hotel for our stay in Belfast. We had looked at renting houses across the road from my Dad but in the end it was much the same price to book a hotel as we don't need a disabled room now

Rearranging

And Timmy had to phone the dentist and say "This appt in April, we will be in Belfast" so they just said "Come a week later, same time"

Won All Last Months

Hoo-fscking-ray (How sad?)

Bookings Were Made

And me and Timmy have just booked and paid for flights to Belfast about my Birthday so we can see my Dad and we are gonna book a house to rent across the road so all is said and done

 Aargh etc

Thursday Morning At 5 O'Clock

No, the reference I was trying for is Wednesday (noisy link) but we have the usual Thursday morning business. To Iechyd Da, MoreReasonsToShopAt.... then to gym then pant etc

Well first of all I was tapping my fingers while Timmy and GGtGG were spending much too much time doing the handover but eventually Timmy was free to put on my FES and drive me to town. We got stuck behind a delivery van on King St (he had to stop 3 times to make different deliveries) but that did mean there was a parking space clear. So Timmy carried my food back to the car and we headed off Morrison-wards. Again that went well and all was done (including organic tinned tomatoes, there were none in my org order).

 Then we came home and I put it away then we headed gym-wards and I got stuck into a rowing machine and did 3¼ km as usual. Then came home and had a late lunch and a late nap

Tonight

So tonight we are off to the Game For A Laugh meeting of lonely folk from around Carmarthen. Dunno, see how it goes....

OK, worth while. We played a game, chatted loads, just generally behaved like people. Yes, I will be there again. But one of the women noticed me. She said "So you are a charmer are you?" or words to that effect

A Swimming We Will Go.....

Unfortunately, we are on the Aqua Aerobics list in an hour or so......

And wasn't it fun. Afterwards when I went up to 'her' to complain about some issue of my illness that had been brought to my attention by her exercises she did comment that I am getting both better at the class and braver in my 'trying it out'

Mohawk

And I had to have a haircut today, as we had cut my mohawk so short last time it was beginning to be indistinguishable, and I won't need bath immediately as I will be in the swimming pool in a couple of hours

Hooray

And so I have another 8.5 miles to cycle before I can go home today....

BIG SIGH

Less than 7 miles now. HOORAY

Only 2.5 to go now

Well I dun it. I don't know what my time was today but again I did it all in one go, no stops for breath.

But the computer thingy on the bike wasn't working today. I entered the URL but nowt came up. (I had to take a pic with my Samsung Mobile Phone as my camera was out of reach in my bag on the floor, my phone had the timer in so I could reach that)

Newbie

And as I was about to go to sleep it said 'New Firefox for your phone' so some time was spent setting it up etc. I think I might like it, tell you in the morning

I do indeed like it now....

Hooray

So today there is no "Headway" meeting to get in the way and MightyMark's cold is better enuf so we will go to WaterWorks and have a drown s'afternoon

Oh wasn't it fun. For a start we were 3 minutes late at the start, I am blaming MM for that, but just everything else I am better at than last week. And we didn't do any of the exercise which caused me to nearly drown t'other week, which I was planning on not doing anyway just do some stretches or summat but I didn't need to
