Progress in various ways

[janewilliams20]

I've managed some things today that go beyond the basic needed for survival. Before coming downstairs, I did some sorting in the craft room, resulting in finding some notes I'd lost (though not the ones I was looking for), and having a much clearer idea of where the ones I'm actually looking for aren't. Lunch - I'd set things up so I could spend minimal time on my feet if I had to (pot noodle in easy reach), but in fact ended up spending a good 10-15 minutes on my feet, pottering around grilling things and slicing things and finding things in boxes and clearing up. OK, I'm still slow and not very stable and can't cope with anything but a completely flat floor, but that length of time on my feet wouldn't have been an option a few days ago. I could probably have kept going longer if I'd been willing to spend an hour or so whimpering with the legs elevated afterwards, but better not to push things.

I also made it to the door when the postman rang, before he gave up and stuck a "sorry we missed you" note through the letterbox. He had an Amazon parcel containing two second-hand books on English grammar for me. Reading, and Classic FM, will now occur.
