Feed Him

And because he is here today and tomorrow I kind of thought that it will start to have gone off if I don't use it 'til Saturday so I said "Want it?" to Timmy and then fed him Na'an Bread Pizza and chips for tea. And it was fecking lovely again

Let Off

And Samantha (my gym teacher) txted me today and said "No gym class tomorrow, sorry" so dunno what we should do instead

Tension In My Arm

So yesterday while doing the scary climb up the hill my right arm was as tight as a very tight thing

Thursday Morning

(Sigh....)

Well that's the first load done. Picked up veg, shopped at Morrisons came home, put it away, paid my bill, now waiting for Timmy to take me to gym. Then I can get on......

Where?

Then tonight GGtGG said "Lets go out. Where shall we go?" so I said "Paxton's Tower". So we set off and I had to say "No, it's this way" and when we got there it turns out that I was heading for Dryslwyn Castle instead, just to see how far up it was etc. So we looked then said "Try it?" and headed off uphill along the path. I switched the FES off as it was all uneven and just carried on. We got almost all the way to the top then GGtGG was starting to panic about it getting too dark to see on the way back down so we turned back when almost at the top.

I just can't believe how my much fitness is changing, just getting better and better week after week

Frozen Food and Oven Chips

Well I put slightly more into each days food to freeze and we finished it all this week and had to eat some frozen from the shop food. In the past it was lasting about 9 days but it just lasted 6 this week

Further Right-handedness

And I took a bit longer lifting the dinner tonight as I lifted all the chips with my right hand. From the oven tray to our plates, the sweet potato oven chips were lifted properly. It is the first time I have eaten them this week, and the first time for some years that I lifted them with my right hand

Was I In Charge?

And I found this document from when I was a computer teacher amongst tat yesterday. I have no fscking memory of this but.....

Click to look

Stress BUT Fun?

So we are heading to the swimming pool later for an Aqua Aerobics session......

"Oh what fun we had, but......"

And didn't we do it. And again I did the whole class on my own two feet, not having to hold the side of the pool at all

WTF?

And I was going thru the box of "stuff from filing cabinet" and there was an opened envelope in there. Where The F*ck was I staying then?????

Right Hand

And I have noticed that recently I am using my right hand in ways that just wouldn't have been possible last week. I went to loo to have a pooh tonight, put my phone in the right hand side pocket of my trews and took it out to read with my right hand.

And put my electric toothbrush back on it's stand with my right hand.

These just wouldn't have been possible a fortnight ago

Feels Odd

And the towels that I washed yesterday then dried outside on the washing line feel different than usual, more rough kind of thing. More effective at drying tho...

Cycl-fecking-ing

So we came to gym s'morning and I have another 8.5km to go.....

Hooray...

Only 7 now.....

Three quarters of an hour after starting and now there are only 3 km to go....

Well I finished it in about 56 minutes, not my fastest time but it was too fecking hot for exercise

Early Walkies

And s'morning I nipped out and did a Helena Style walk down the path to the left and back up. With no FES fitted, it just feels so much better, I kind of can't describe it, trying to move my foot by the knee, not trying to lift my hip or summat

Sentimental

So I took MM out to the garage and looked thru the filing cabinet. About ⅔ of the contents is in the "check with Timmy before throw it away", a couple of boxes have come indoors with us and there is about ⅓ of a drawer full of precious sentimental stuff whereas before there were 4 drawers full of tat

I will have to go back out and sort out the "Neil's old stuff" pile in the corner, perhaps when GGtGG is working next

Aargh

So I said to MM "Right, lets go swimming", he looked at me a bit oddly and said "We don't have to go for a hour Neil, it's at quarter to 3"

Well I just did the whole class without having to hold on for balance. Hopping on my right foot for example

Glug

As there is no Headway distraction today we are fecking off to Water Works at late today, 2.45 pm

But today I have gotta wash 2 loads, I recon the first will be dry by the time I have gone to the pool then washed the second

It was dry before I tried to go swimming an hour early, well warm today

WTF

Then GGtGG said after dinner "Lets go out and practice your proper walking" so I said "Good idea" and headed out. Parked up on Lammas St as usual. We walked along Chapel St then up the barricaded off bit of Little Water St and turned to walk back along King St. Outside The Parrot pub was a man I know who often plays mouth organ at Clwb Iechyd Da, he said "Hiya, coming to our gig here tonight?". WTF?

So me and GGtGG walked all the way back to the car, jumped in and headed back to park up at the end of King St. Went and listened to the support act then The Low Down Dirty Dog Blues Band who were actually rather entertaining

Insults

Imminent

So when I got up s'morning I put my bed sheets in the wash. It takes about an hour and a half to wash so it finished at about 9.30. I thought I'd better put it on to tumble dry as they said it was gonna rain s'morning on the news but the weather still looked fine so I put it out to dry on the line. An hour and a half later I checked and it was fully dry so brought it in, surprised at how quickly it had dried. An hour after that it was raining heavily here
