I had such a busy week last week. On Tuesday I had an appointment with an optician to check my eyes for suitability for laser eye surgery and I booked it right there and then for this Wednesday! After the check up I couldn't really see properly as they put drops in my eyes and I felt a bit sick so my lad and me went into some shops briefly before moving onto a restaurant named Old Orleans for dinner.

Thursday I made my way to London to see a dear friend and we had a fantastic time as well as a slap up meal and Friday I picked my sister up for work and we chilled all weekend til I took her home late yesterday evening.

Today my housemate returned from his weekend and we went for a meal. Whilst there my friend text saying her brother (my lad) had changed his relationship status on FaceBook. I checked on my phone and saw a request to have him as my boyfriend. I found it a bit rude to just change it and not discuss it so I waited til I got home and he popped over and I asked him what changed his mind about not putting names on things and was he absolutely sure and he explained how much he likes me and cares about me so I accepted the request and, well, I'm in a relationship!

Today I made sure I didn't go back to sleep as I had plans - my housemate was home, the weather fantastic and the day free! I pulled myself up and moved my legs around to the side of the bed, shuffled forwards and slid into my wheelchair, picked up a towel and made my way to the bathroom where I parked at 90 degrees to my shower chair and swung myself over to have a wash and do my catheter. I placed my towel on my wheelchair ready to sit on and took myself back into my room.

On the bed I wiggled a pair of white panties on and black footless tights as well as a yellow skirt, black bra and black vest. Thinking it may be cold I pulled on a grey cardigan and went into the kitchen for my cereal. I transferred onto the sofa and put some make up on and plaited my hair.

Outside I gave my housemate the video camera and opened the boot of my car. I pushed up and got myself into the boot and manoeuvred myself to get the wheelchair in bit by bit and wiggled myself into the front seat and we went to the park where I climbed out of the car, lifted and pushed myself around to the boot and took my wheelchair out, reassembled it and got in it - from the floor! I had to get in the boot again to put my cushion on my wheelchair and then we were ready for some playground fun! I went straight to the helter skelter slide and tried to climb the supporting pole and my housemate had to save me as it was more difficult than I imagined! I went to the bottom of the slide, transferred down onto it and pulled myself up the slide before sliding back down. I decided to have a go on a swing so shuffled onto one and tried to swing. It was a bit risky as I was either too far forward or too far back and my housemate safely put me back in my chair!

When I got home I put the memory card in my laptop and the footage seems to be jumpy so I am trying to convert it and see if it changes as it plays fine in my camera, think it is because the settings are for High Definition in the camcorder. The files are HUGE!

I will stay at that lad's place tonight as he has the day off. Earlier I was telling him about the different types of fan I have and explained what pretenders and wannabes are as well as the few not-so-nice minority and he asked what I think of him in that way. He could be a closet devotee so I carefully worded it and asked if he secretly likes it and explained that for a lot of Devs it is very hard for them, they are made to feel abnormal and it's almost like coming out as gay and I wouldn't like him any less but if he only liked me for my chair he could leave. He said he likes me for me and wishes I wasn't disabled. I hope further down the line he doesn't decide that it's a problem....
