Today's (12th June 2026) breakfast photo

I get travel sick and I've got a medical appointment this morning, so my only breakfast this morning was my usual 500ml glass of water to take my 9 morning pills with.


Here's today's breakfast photo:


Mornin' all

Well, my Visible is into it's second day without needing to be pretty much fully charged, so I think it's sorted now.  My 'Morning Stability' score was 2 again, so it'll be another gentle day without laps or exercises again.


I ran the daily virus scan as I was getting washed and changed, then brushing my teeth and it found an 'Advanced Issue' so I'll get that sorted when I've posted this and got my breakfast photo up for you all.


I've got another attempt at the ECG this morning, so I haven't had anything solid for breakfast, so I can't have the caffeinated drink today otherwise it'll go straight through me.


Time to shut up and get today's breakfast photo up for you all now I reckon.

Nite nite orl

It's been a long ole day again today and I'm knackered despite barely leaving the sofa today, so maybe my Visible score of 2 out of 5 was right this morning??


I've popped my last two pills of the day and the side effects are already kicking in, so I'm gonna head on up to beddy-byes now.


I'll see you all in the morning.
