Today's (21st July 2026) breakfast photo

I had a 500ml glass of water to wash my pills down with, same as every morning, but I forgot to take a photo of it!  I remembered to take the photo of my solid breakfast though, which was my usual warm weather breakfast of choccie Weetabix with approx 150ml of Plant Protein soya milk and a 250ml bottle of Flawsome sweet & sour apple juice.

Here's today's breakfast photo:

Mornin' all

I've woken up feeling like I haven't slept at all, then my blood pressure cuff decided to fold over mid-reading so I had to do it again.  My morning pills went down fine but I forgot to take the photo of the water for part one of my breakfast.  Part two has really filled me up, so hopefully that'll mean no snacking before I have my lunch.

Yesterday's two orders have been split into three deliveries and looking at the progress bar, two of the deliveries will come together then the third one separately.

Today's lunch, assuming it's in stock and I remember of course, will be vegan bacon, avocado, pears and apples so a pretty healthy lunch I reckon.

I've got 3 pints of milk hopefully coming with today's groceries, ready for my best friend coming over on Thursday.  I don't know which milk he prefers, so I've got him 1 pint of whole milk, 1 pint of semi-skimmed and 1 pint of skimmed and I'll put the ones that he doesn't want onto Olio.

I'm also gonna put my new shoes onto Freegle 'cos my big toe is right at the end and it's rubbing on the side and top of my nail, so is pretty painful.  They are supposed to be size 5-6 which is bang on for me, but they feel more like a 4 so I can't wear them comfortably unfortunately.

My Visible's 'Morning Stability' score was 3 again, so I'll do my laps and exercises after lunch.

The daily virus scan was reassuringly clear, so time to get today's breakfast photo up, then my to-do list, then my next grocery order while keeping my ear on the door.

BBS

Nite nite orl

It's been a busy ole day and tomorrow is gonna be even busier 'cos of my groceries and two deliveries due before lunchtime.  As long as I get a high enough 'Morning Stability' score, I'll do my exercises in the afternoon instead of trying to cram them in and potentially having to stop part way through.

I've taken my last two pills of the night and I'm heading on up to beddy-byes now.

I'll see you all in the morning.

Nite nite orl

Today's (20th July 2026) lunch photo

Today's lunch, like most Monday's, was the leftover's from yesterday's Sunday roast with my wonderful sister-in-law and this week it was 2 servings of a vegetarian Family Roast and frozen broccoli, washed down today with a 330ml can of a Sparkling Guava pop.

Here's today's lunch photo:

Today (20th July 2026) I'm already grateful for...

...tidying up the side and cupbords over by the freezer because I've discovered a brand new, still boxed, pots and pans set so I can get rid of (via Freegle) the ones that are currently in there to save even more room!  I've got room for tomorrow's delivery too now as well as having a small amount of space to lean on/put food on as it goes into or out of the freezer too!

Today is gonna be a good day!

Today's (20th July 2026) breakfast photo

I'm starting off the new week with just a 500ml glass of water to wash my 10 morning pills down with.

Here's today's breakfast photo:

Mornin' all

I've woken up feeling like I haven't slept at all, so I'm already totally knackered.  My 'Morning Stability' score was 3 again, so I can do my laps and exercises today.  I've taken my morning pills with my only breakfast today then weighed myself and found that I'm 1.15kg over where the nurse wants me to be, so that's a relief.  The daily virus scan was clear, so it's time to get my first meal photo of the week up, then today's to-do list, then keep my ear on the recycling being picked up.

BBS

Nite nite orl

It's been a very long, thoroughly exhausting day today, so I've popped my last two pills of the week and I'm heading on up to beddy-byes now.

I'll see you all in the morning.

Today's (19th July 2026) breakfast photo

Today's breakfast was just my usual 500ml glass of water to wash my 10 morning pills down with, nothing solid this morning.

Here's today's breakfast photo:

Goood mornin' all!

I've woken up feeling like I've barely slept, I've got a 'Morning Stability' score of 3 again, my blood pressure was slap bang in the middle of my normal range, my morning pills went down fine, the virus scan was clear and I'm in a pretty decent mood this morning, so I'm hoping I'll have a pretty decent day.

BBS

Nite nite orl

It's been a very long, very hot, very sweaty day today but my new fan has really come into its own.  I'll leave a review for it after a few days so that I can give it a good run for my money, but right now, it's very much 5 stars.

I've taken 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

Recipe idea for my leftover apples, pears and easy-peelers

I've just asked AI if apples, pears and easy-peelers are OK to make into a smoothie and they apparently make a great combination.  I've gotta put in about 150ml of water, finely chop 1 apple into small pieces (because the skin can be tough to break up), core the 1 pear, de-pip (so basically halve each segment to check) the 1 easy peeler, bung it all into my smoothie machine, turn it on for 35-45 seconds et voila!

I forgot how easy it was to make smoothies and now that I'm getting fruit each week via my OddBox, it's even easier!

Today's (18th July 2026) breakfast photo

Today's breakfast was just my normal 500ml glass of water to take my morning pills with and I'm not hungry, so doubt I'll have anything solid until lunchtime.

Here's today's breakfast photo:

Mornin' all

Well, I woke up at 4.30am and didn't see the point in going back to sleep.  My 'Morning Stability' score was 3 again but I'm not gonna risk my laps or exercises today otherwise I'll end up on the floor and not be able to get back to my feet.  I took my morning pills and they all went down fine, so I turned the water heating switch on at 5.25am and I'm gonna get into the bath at around 6am to see how hot or otherwise the water is after 35 minutes.

The virus scan was clear so I'm gonna get today's breakfast photo up, then today's to-do list, then see what the time is like after that.

BBS

Nite nite orl

It's been a long week and a thoroughly exhausting and anxious day today, so I've popped my last two pills of the day and I'm taking myself on up to beddy-byes now for a well-deserved early night.

I'll see you all in the morning.

Today's (17th July 2026) tea photo

I decided that I deserved a reward after my medical appointment and being able to stay upright, so I had a liquid tea of a 275ml bottle of Apple & Raspberry J2O.

Back to normal with my meals again tomorrow, thankfully.

Here's today's tea photo:
