5th stroke anniversary

-

 It't the 5th anniversary of my stroke, I think I have come a long way since then, my left hand and arm are about 95% normal most the time it can get a bit lazy if I am tired to had to much to drink or smoke then I have to be careful when I pick thinks up with it, some times I don;t remember to let go then, opps a glass of wine over my keyboard again.

There have been lots of ups and down due to the stroke. One issue i still have are my emotions when watching films or shows, any sort of happy thing and i start to cry and have no control over it, I do get angry at times with it with tears streaming down my face.........

I can still make improvements in my left arm if only i would start to excersise I really don't know why I don't. Would only take maybe 15mins morning and 15 mins afternoon. Maybe I need to start to look at why I find it hard to help myself.

Am I Ready

 I Think i have packed every thing, bags a lot bigger than I wanted but 1/2 is full with sweets and chocolate but then they are for Erin and family and will give me room to bring stuff back, hope to start to add photos when i get there. I think i have worked it out, we will see. People keep asking me if i am excited, to be honest I am not really. I am really looking forward to seeing Nick & Gina again, think it was 2013 when we last met. I am going to have so much fun when I get to Erin and her family, they have 4 young kids so that means they will have a 5th whilst I am there. As Del Boy said " He who dares wins" I will try a little to stay out of trouble

 Its been a while since my last post, just over a year. Not much has happened, had my shoulder operation in September 23 so only really started going back out this spring, have been getting quite fit with all the pushing. So I am ready for my trip. I am going for 8 weeks, will be staying with Nick for a while as he has a road trip planed of 6 days in his truck, so looking forward to that. I pick up my car on the 9th sept then will leave Nicks on the 10th sept and head to Erin, about a 3 day drive, will stay there a few weeks (not sure how many). When i leave there i am going to SpaceX, it's a 5/6 day drive. really looking forward to seeing there even if its just a drive past then the drive back to Nicks which will take about 5/6 days Then chill out at Nicks until the 4th Nov for my flight home. This is the min time it will take to get to places, but I expect I will get side tracked, well I hope I do.   Sunday 8 th Pick up car from Sarasota airport after 2pm. Monday 9 th Head t
