Well, let me start with something funny that happened yesterday. Karen is trying to use her left arm/hand as much as she can to try and encourage it to work more. For example, she will hold her toothbrush in her left hand, whilst putting paste on with the right. She will try and hold toilet roll in the left while breaking some off with the right.

So, she had been to the loo and I had come out of the loo before her. When I turned round I was greeted with a very funny sight. Karen was walking out of the loo trailing toilet paper from her left hand going all the way back to the toilet roll dispenser (JUST LIKE THE ANDREX PUP). She had forgot to release the toilet paper from her left hand and it was gripped by her thumb and forefinger. We both had a good laugh about it. It is very strange that she can’t feel that she is still holding toilet paper, but yet she can feel cold metals against her left hand as painful.

Today was a very rushed morning. After our lovely meal last night, we both lay in until 10:05am. I walked the dogs and got back just in time for the Tesco van arriving with the shopping, then Sue and Gary (kp’s workmate and partner/husband (strike as applicable)) arrived for a visit with some lovely flowers.

We had a nice chat with them. They left and Marie arrived very flustered about the previous evening’s events (complicated). I took both ladies to the hairdressers to be beautified. Surprisingly it only took 90 mins !

2 new hairstyles later, they emerged………..

They had both had a relaxing time.

That’s it for today. Tonight will be X Factor, Strictly Come Dancing and Pizza………
