Nite nite orl

After spending more time in the bathroom than the bedroom overnight, I'm absolutely knackered, so I've taken my last two pills of the day and I'm heading off to beddy-byes now.


I'll see you all in the morning.

Today's (12th March 2026) breakfast photo

I had a very healthy breakfast today - a 500ml glass of water at 4.21am to take my morning pills with, then my full day's fruit portions for my 'official' breakfast at 7.50am of 2 bananas, 2 packets of apple and grapes and a 250ml bottle of Tropical juice and I feel a lot better already!


Here's today's breakfast photos:



Mornin' all

Today is gonna be a thoroughly exhausting day because I woke up 3 times in 4 hours to go for emergency wee's and I've been for another 3 in the hour that I've been awake... oh joy.


I've taken my blood pressure which was in my normal range, popped my 11 morning pills, got washed and dressed and run the daily virus scan, so I'm all set to do my morning laps now, then I'll have my breakfast and wait for M to come for the doorbell.


My hayfever season has officially started today 'cos my eyes are itchy, my nose is streaming and my throat is scratchy.


Be back after I've been for my 4th wee in an hour and a half and done my morning laps.  Definitely a caffeine morning this morning methinks.

Nite nite orl

Tomorrow (Thursday) I've gotta remember that M could be coming over to change the batteries in my doorbell so I've gotta get my second set of laps done at about 11am (unless she comes in the morning of course, in which case, everything will be the same as normal).  I've also gotta remember to refill my squash bottle too.


I've taken my last two pills of the day and I'm stiff, sore and swollen, so I'm taking myself on up to bed.


I'll see you all in the morning.
