Nite nite orl

It's gonna be another night with very little sleep, but there's nothing I can do about that.


I've gotta remember to refill my squash bottle tomorrow and that it's the weekly virus scan and backups as well as getting washed and changed, having at least two meals and doing my exercises... it's gonna be a busy day tomorrow!


My last two pills of the day have been popped and I'm heading off to beddy-byes now.


I'll see you all in the morning.

Today's (3rd March 2026) tea photo

For my second solid meal of the month, I decided to have the mushrooms that I was going to have at lunchtime because I've got a delivery due between 6pm and 9pm so I'm really hoping I won't feel sick when I go to bed tonight now!


I had 300g of large, flat mushrooms, approx. 10g of Vegan Mayo and a 330ml can of a Sparkling Passion[fruit] pop.


Here's today's tea photo:


My Amazon delivery is gonna be...

...very late (6pm-9pm) so I'm gonna have the mushrooms for tea instead of lunch and potentially only manage 5 hours of sleep again tonight.


That's the...

...updated stock take and menu's sorted.  I don't need any more lunch food until 19th April now, when I'll hopefully have completely empty freezers that I can re-stock again.  It's just the fruit and drinks and maybe crisps on each order until then though.


Can someone remind me NOT to order anything frozen for lunch until 19th April please?


I'm adding loads of frozen things to a new list so I'll be able to fill up my freezers from that without forgetting that I need to get something.

Today's (3rd March 2026) breakfast photo

I had another 500ml glass of water for my breakfast and it's not safe for me to continue with mostly just liquids - it could rapidly kill me thanks to my main disability - and I'm already weak and wobbly, so I'm gonna fill up on chocolate until lunchtime.  It's back to my normal meals starting from lunchtim today that are healthy and packed with veg and I've got a 1kg bag of frozen veg, a 600g bag of cubed sweet potato and a 600g bag of cubed butternut squash, as well as fresh mushrooms hopefully coming with this morning's groceries so I'll be getting veg into me, I've just gotta take it slow after living on a mug of instant soup a day for the best part of 3 years!


Here's today's breakfast photo:

Mornin' all

I've woken up stiff and sore, so the exercising today is gonna be awful.


I've taken my blood pressure which was a bit higher than my normal, popped my pills with my breakfast glass of water and run the virus scan, so next on the list is putting up today's to-do list then doing my exercises at 5am then getting washed and changed... although that depends on the time - might get washed and changed first.


Time to get today's to-do list together now methinks.
