Today's (28th February 2025) breakfast photo

Anyone want to take a guess at what I had for breakfast this morning?

Yep, choccie Weetabix with the last dreggs of the carton of plant protein soya milk and a freshly decanted 250ml bottle of apple and mango juice again this morning.

Here's today's breakfast photo:

Mornin' all

I completely forgot to say goodnight to you all last night, I'm so sorry!

So far this morning I've taken my blood pressure, popped my morning pills, had my breakfast and started off the monthly virus scan, then made myself the first drinking choccie of the day, without cream this time.

I'm gonna shut up now and get today's to-do list together, then put my blood pressure readings onto the spreadsheet and hopefully get the breakfast photo downloaded, resized and uploaded before my carer arrives, then get my head stuck in yesterday's book until lunchtime.

Mornin' all

Today is gonna be a bad memory day because I already forgot to take my morning pills until after I'd had breakfast, but they are down the hatch now, so I'm just waiting for my morning carer.

I forgot to take my FA on Tuesday so I'm not gonna take it today either otherwise my OCD will kick in because there isn't an even number of pills popped out.

The virus scan was clear so maybe it just needed the weekly scan to get things properly secured again?

I'm expecting a quiet day today so I'll hopefully be able to stick my nose into a book today.

Time to publish this and get today's to-do list together now I reckon.

BBS

Nite nite orl

It's been a long day and I'm exhausted and in a lot of pain so I've taken my pills and I'm heading to bed.

I'll see you all in the morning.

Nite nite orl.

Today's (26th February 2025) lunch photo

It was a very early lunch today and was my usual mug of instant vegetable Cup Soup which warmed me up for a few minutes.

Here's today's lunch photo:

I haven't missed...

...two caffeinated wee's in 14 minutes!

When I've finally finished the 100g jar of caffeinated coffee, I won't be getting another one.  I've got sachets of caffeinated coffee for visitors, but I won't be getting any more caffeinated coffee for myself.

Third caffeinated wee in 21 minutes coming up!

Aaaand...relax

Loki was taking charge this morning because it's been one thing after another.  It started off as normal with my emergency wee as soon as I woke up, then taking my blood pressure, then another wee, getting a glass of water, popping my pills, setting off the weekly scan, having my breakfast then my first hot chocolate of the day.  I'd only just finished draining the mug when my first carer arrived, I risked another hot choccie, then another wee, then my laps, then I made myself a caffeinated mocha and I didn't even have a chance to take a sip before my prescriptions were delivered!

Thankfully the rest of today should be a lot calmer with just finishing the scan, doing the backups and cleaning the bathroom... I might even be able to stick my nose into a book this afternoon too!

Talking of which, the scan has just finished so I'm gonna go for my first caffeinated wee of the day then set the backups going.

(A very late) mornin' all

I've been awake since 4am and I've managed to take my blood pressure, pop my morning pills, have a proper breakfast, start the weekly virus scan and make myself a creamy hot choccie.

I haven't got anything planned for today other than hopefully my prescription being delivered or chasing up the pharmacy for the third day on the trot if it isn't.

I've decided to have toast for breakfast when I've finished off the Weetabix so that'll hopefully warm me up a bit too.

Time to get today's to-do list together before my carer arrives.

BBS (I hope)

Nite nite orl

Gotta remember that it's the weekly virus scan and backups tomorrow morning and I've been promised my prescriptions for the second day on the trot too so keep your fingers crossed that they will turn up tomorrow.

I've popped my last two pills of the day so it's beddy-byes time now.

I'll see you all in the morning.

Nite nite orl.

Today's (25th February 2025) breakfast photo

I'm having a good day, except that my memory has already let me down this morning 'cos I forgot to make my usual breakfast before I put my laptop back on the table so today's breakfast was 200g of chocolate raisins and a 400ml mug of decaff coffee.

Here's today's breakfast photo:

Goooood morning all!

I've woken up in a pretty positive mood today so I hope it lasts!

My blood pressure has been taken, my morning pills have been popped, the virus scan found an advanced issue again, which is now resolved and now that I know what the issue is, I can relax until my anti-virus programme decides that it's no longer an issue.

I forgot to make my breakfast before I put my laptop back on the table, so today's breakfast is chocolate raisins and a mug of instant decaff coffee lol

Gotta remember to put in a new grocery order and put the bags in front of the door after lunch.  I bet my prescription will turn up just as I'm doing my laps!  lol

Time to get this published and today's to-do list put together now me-thinks.

TTFN

Nite nite orl

It's been a loooong, tiring day today and the light as opposed to deep sleep last night didn't help either, so I've popped my last two pills of the day and I'm heading on up to beddy-byes now.

I'll see you all in the morning.

Nite nite orl.

Today (24th February 2025) I'm grateful for...

...having a full belly after such a big lunch, getting more feedback on my misery medical memoir that I wrote for NaNo24 and edited for the first time for JanNo25 and especially for how little my energy is going to cost me this month 'cos I've already saved about a tenner this month, plus at least £2 today and it all adds up!

I'm also grateful that I phoned the pharmacy first thing and I'll hopefully have my newest prescription in my hands tomorrow morning.

I'm also grateful that I can keep doing my laps this week but I wanna try and get my weight even higher if I can so that I can confidently do the laps without worrying about how much weight I'm losing.

On top of all that, I'm grateful that I found out for sure what the advanced issue is with the virus scan... I know that it'll just take a bit of time and patience and it'll magically heal itself rather than being infected by anything nasty.

Today has been a good day.

That's impressive!

I've just spotted how much electricity I've used since midnight and it's less now than it was yesterday morning when it came on!  Spring is definitely springing if I can get away with under £2.50 usage in 24 hours!  Long may it continue!

I checked my yearly usage which goes from April to April and I've only used about £600 so far which is even better!!

Today's lunch was my usual Monday left-overs pig-out, today consisting of:

2 servings of a vegetarian Family Roast
2.5 roast potatoes cooked in 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil
Broccoli
French beans

It's back to my usual mug of instant soup again tomorrow, so I've gotta make the most of feeling full today!

Mornin' all

Well, after not taking my pills last night it feels like I've barely slept a wink, even though my FitBit says that I was asleep for well over 8 hours.

So far this morning I've taken my blood pressure, popped my morning pills, had my breakfast, weighed myself and run the daily virus scan which found another advanced issue so I haven't got a clue what's causing that as I barely used my machine yesterday!

I'm still within the healthy weight range for my height, but I've lost 800g so I'm gonna be able to have multiple hot chocolates a day this week now that my lunches are 77 calorie soups rather than 1,000 calorie biscuit bars!  I'll still be doing two sets of laps a day but I'll reduce their length compared to last week.

This blog post is getting a bit long, so I'm gonna publish it and put today's to-do list together before my first carer of the new week arrives.

TTFN

Nite nite orl

I'm not taking my pills tonight in case they come back up again but I'm heading off to beddy-byes now for the final time this week.

I'll see you all in the morning.

Nite nite orl.

Today's (23rd February 2025) breakfast photo

This is actually my second 400ml mug of instant decaff coffee this morning and I know that I don't usually take photo's of my drinks, but I potentially need proof for my carers that I have actually had something before they arrived and this is the last photo of the week so I needed to get something up!

Here's today's breakfast photo:
