The 27th of September.  Well my legs are okay but my arms hurt a lot. Reaching for stuff is very painful. Thankfully I don't need to do that much. 

This morning we went into town. It started off just being to get birthday cards for Christine, but other things were added on. Face wipes were on offer and I needed some more, plus I got a free gift of some bath stuff which will probably go to a raffle in Boldmere Court. Mommy needed some Christmassy fabric so we went to John Lewis, and I bought some festive wool because I couldn't not. Then I went to Foyles while Mommy picked up some train tickets, but I did not but any books! The new Apple shop has opened on New Street in the old Waterstones/Midland Bank so we went to have a look, mainly to see if they'd made it wheelchair accessible. Yes, they very much have! One of the steps is actually a lift - you park on a panel, one of the steps slides in underneath the top one, and you are lifted into the store. It's super cool. Inside it's very spacious and airy - I could move around without having to say "Excuse me" every two seconds, and accessories area downstairs is just lovely. I particularly enjoyed the drawers full of phone cases in the wall; that is an excellent storage solution. Then we returned home because it was lunchtime and I was starving. 

This afternoon I have done lots of crocheting, and we finally watched last week's Hunted. I do not think I would fare well on that programme. 

The 28th of September. 

Arms are much better today - I could even lift the hairdryer!

This morning I caught up with last night's debate, and to me it seems obvious that Hillary just destroyed Trump. I am concerned that his supporters just don't care and are determined to elect him no matter what terrible things he says or how unprepared he is, and I want to shake them all by the shoulders and say "You can't do this to us!" because it will affect the whole world. If he becomes President, there will be armageddon. 

After lunch I had a jolly time sitting at the computer. I needed to plug in and update my classic iPod with recently downloaded music so I can listen to it on the train, now that I can't charge my phone and listen to music at the same time unless I get Bluetooth headphones. I also cleaned out all the duplicate photos in my library which was tedious but necessary. Christine phoned while I was doing it though, and that made it slightly more bearable. 

This evening I went to The Dragon Inn in town to meet a chap from the Elis James and John Robins Podcast Devotee Facebook group. He's going to their gig which I am also attending, and has Asperger's, so he wanted to meet some people beforehand so it was less stressful. It was slightly awkward but we had enough in common to hold a good conversation for an hour and a half. By half seven, nobody else had turned up which may have been a blessing in disguise, so I got an Uber home in time to watch Bake Off!
