Nite nite orl

It's been another long day today and I've been sneezing my head off all day, so I've taken my last two pills and I'm gonna crawl on up to beddy-byes now.


I'll see you all in the morning.

...making a start on reading my memoir and getting the email from Draft2Digital about the only URL I'll need to promote it everywhere.

Today's (14th May 2025) lunch photo

About an hour before my carer could start to potentially turn up, I got my lunch ready, so all I need to do when she gets here is to fill up the 500ml glass with water and bring that and the vegetarian picnic eggs through.


Here's today's lunch photo:

Mornin' all

Well, my mood is plummeting 'cos it took me over half an hour to crawl out of bed this morning!


My blood pressure is back in my normal range, I've popped my 9 morning pills, had my breakfast and started off the weekly virus scan.  I've also just downloaded and resized my breakfast photo, so I'll be able to put that up after my to-do list instead of having to wait until almost lunchtime so I'll go and do that now before I forget.
