Mornin' all

I've woken up to a 'Morning Stability' score of 4 this morning, so in theory at least I could do two sets of laps and exercises today, but because my weight wasn't too far into the healthy range yesterday I'm not gonna risk it.  I'm also not eating until my nectarine for tea which is another reason not to.

I've taken my blood pressure which was at 120 this morning, popped my 11 morning pills and gotten myself washed and changed.  The daily virus scan found an advanced issue and I haven't got a clue what that could be this time.  The Olio-er isn't coming this morning after all, which is frustrating, but I've re-listed the sweet potatoes and I'll hopefully be able to get rid of them in the next few days.

Got a medical appointment after lunch, so it's a busy day today.

Gonna put in my next grocery order, then get today's only breakfast photo up, then my to-do list now I reckon.

Today's (22nd July 2026) lunch photo

Well, today's lunch was a complete disaster lol

I was going to have the vegan bacon and had got everything ready, opened the packet and got the liners ready.  So far so good... except that the spray refused to move even though I was working up a small sweat trying to get it to work!  I gave up when I started getting wobbly and advertised the sprays and slices on Olio, then went back to the good old fruit for my lunch.  I managed one mouthful of the avocado before it fell on the floor, so had to give up on that and ended up with just 2 large pears and an apple for my lunch, washed down with a 330ml can of a Sparkling Passion[fruit] pop.

Here's my second of three attempts at my lunch photo:

Mornin' all

Well, after such a late night yesterday, I've woken up at my usual time of 4.30am and feel completely knackered.

I'm expecting 4 deliveries today that'll hopefully mean that I can have my vegan bacon for lunch today.

I haven't had anything solid for breakfast 'cos I'm not hungry, but I've got plenty of snacks that I can have if I get hungry before lunch.

My morning pills have been popped and there's a photo of my only breakfast (the glass of water) that I'll put up when the backups have finished

It's the weekly virus scan and backups day today and the scan is already at 71% so I'm gonna attempt to crawl through my exercises before the first delivery comes.

BBL

Nite nite orl

I'm closing as many things as I can so that there's less for me to do when my delivery eventually turns up.  It was supposed to be here between 2.30pm and 4.30pm but the slot came and went but apparently it's "still arriving today" even though it's miles and miles in the other direction now!

I'm giving it until I've finished my glass of water then giving up and going to bed.  I've already taken my pills so hopefully the side effects will kick in soon.

I'll see you all in the morning for my weekly virus scan and backups, another two deliveries and hopefully my first taste of vegan bacon with any luck.

Nite nite orl

Well, it looks like...

...I potentially won't be eating anything else solid today 'cos 2 of my 3 deliveries are due "between 1.30pm and 3.30pm" and my third delivery could turn up at any time because it's been at my local "delivery office" since 9.47am, so I can't have sticky hands and therefore no fruit.  I also don't wanna accidentally pour boiling water all over myself if one or both of the deliverers decide to knock on my door with such force that it verges on breaking the door off it's hinges!  I wish I was joking, but the pharmacy did that this morning and the postie did it yesterday afternoon too!

Soooo, my lunch today is potentially just a glass of water which ain't good when I'm trying to put weight on!

Goooood mornin' all

I've woken up in a pretty decent mood this morning, I got a 3 out of 5 for my 'Morning Stability' score, so can, in theory at least, do my exercises today, but my weight is too low so I'm not gonna risk it.  My blood pressure was back to normal at 106 and I've taken my morning pills (which were a struggle to take this morning).

All of my things have been dispatched overnight and two are coming via an Amazon courier and the other thing by Evri.

My hayfever is through the roof this morning, so it's gonna be a high pollen day and I'm gonna feel pretty rotten all day.

It's gonna be a day of creamy hot chocolates at every opportunity this morning to try and get my weight a bit higher.

The daily virus scan was reassuringly clear, so I can get on with my day, safe in the knowledge that I haven't been affected by anything nasty and I'm not gonna affect any of my friends today either.

This first blog post of the day is getting a bit long, so I'm gonna shut up and get my breakfast photos up, then today's to-do list, then my first hot choccie of the day.

Nite nite orl

It's been a very long, totally exhausting day today and my weight is under where it's supposed to be again, so no more exercising until Monday at the very earliest again now and I'll be having chocolate and crisps and creamy drinks at every opportunity until then.

I'm expecting 3 deliveries tomorrow, so I hope I don't forget!

I've got 4 more months of Steve's finances to go through, then his savings account which I didn't even know that he had and it's just getting worse and worse!

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.

Nite nite orl

I've just...

...weighed myself again and, like last week, I've lost 600g in 4½ days which I really didn't want to do.  It'll be biscuits and chocolate and oodles of creamy drinking chocolates again for the rest of this week and no more lapping or exercises again.  My weight is bouncing around all over the shop and I wish it wouldn't!!

Mornin' all

Let's try this again lol

I can't remember what I said in the original blog post that didn't get saved for some reason, so I'm starting from scratch again.

I've woken up with a pretty rough cough that I can't get rid of, frustratingly, but my 'Morning Stability' score was 3 out of 5 again this morning, so I'll do my exercises while the backups are underway.

My blood pressure is slowly starting to get back to my normal, so that's reassuring.

I'm not hungry this morning so I only had my normal glass of water to take my 10 morning pills with this morning.  I popped a 5-HTP this morning and I can't get rid of the taste of it now!

I've gotta keep my ear on the door today to bring my prescription in so that could turn up at any time lol

The weekly virus scan is at 87% so I'm gonna shut up, get my breakfast photo and to-do list up, then start the backups off, then do my exercises.

Nite nite orl

Today has been a long, exhausting, stressful, highly disappointing day so I've taken my last two pills of the day and I'm gonna head on up to beddy-byes now.

Gotta remember that it's the weekly virus scan and back-ups tomorrow and I've gotta open a new drinking chocolate tub and a new can of squirty cream.

I'll see you all in the morning.

Nite nite orl

Well, I'm...

...up to August 2022 with Steve's bank statement now and it's not getting any better unfortunately.  He's been having literally 2-3 take-aways a night, most nights, and spending around £40 on each one, so it's no wonder that I had to keep bailing him out, really.

He hasn't discovered porn shows yet... there were a few early on, but they didn't cost as much as his more recent ones - I think he's using the porn that's available right now, rather than the individual shows he was paying for in his last few weeks.

I'm just over half way through his current account so far, so just got another 5 months to go through, then his savings, then that's it then.

Not a happy bunny right now, but it needs to be done.

Nite nite orl

It's been a long ole day today, but I'm glad that I managed to change my bedding and eat two meals today.  I'm glad I've managed to get through another couple of months of Steve's bank statements and seen just how many lies he told me and just how much porn he consumed without me suspecting a thing.

Can someone remind me to book a taxi for my medical appointment tomorrow please?  And phone the pharmacy too?

My last two pills of the day have been popped so I'll see you all in the morning.

Nite nite orl

I've just unofficially...

...weighed myself and it's a good job that I did, 'cos even after breakfast and over a litre of fluid, I'm 100g below where I wanna be, so no exercises today and as many calories as I can get into me today and tomorrow.

I'll still officially weigh myself on Monday and log it into the app, but the weight is falling off me again and I can't seem to do anything to keep it on!

I'm...

...absolutely knackered after waiting up for yesterday's delivery and only just getting 6 hours of sleep, so I'm gonna take my pills then head straight on up to beddy-byes for an early night tonight and I'm really hoping that I'll be asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow tonight!

I've finished the editing now and I've made a start on Steve's bank statements so I'm gonna try and do a bit every day with that so that it's not so overwhelmingly frustrating for me.

I'm gonna have a peach instant tea tomorrow after breakfast and me-friendly creamy hot chocolates for the rest of the day 'cos I need and deserve both of them!

Can someone remind me to put the vegan mayo onto Olio tomorrow please?  I'm gonna keep eating the fruit for my lunches so don't need it any more and don't want it to go to waste.

I'm also expecting my Omegas to turn up tomorrow and they are due around lunchtime, so it'll be early exercises (assuming my 'Morning Stability' score is high enough) and a late lunch of 2 apricots, 10 cherries, a banana and a large pear tomorrow.

Mornin' all

Well, after my delivery arrived so late last night, I dragged myself on up to beddy-byes.

I managed 6 hours of sleep according to my HLTH band.

I'm feeling really rotten today after such a late night and not taking my APs so barely sleeping.  My 'Morning Stability' score is 3 so, even though I technically can do my laps and exercises, I know I'd end up on the floor unable to get up, so I'm not gonna risk it today.

I've taken my blood pressure and it was 109 so at the high end of my normal range.  My morning pills have been popped and my breakfast eaten and the washing up done.  The daily virus scan was clear, so I'm gonna get my breakfast photo up, then today's to-do list, then hopefully finish the read-through and any last minute editing of my memoir today.

I wanna go through Steve's bank statements and come up with a spreadsheet of his incomings and outgoings so that I can see what he really spent his money on when I paid him for the vast majority of household bills - I know it was £70-£100 a day on porn and that he paid for private shows at least once a week at about £1000 each too, because it was his last transaction before going into hospital then passing away, so I wanna see the exact numbers.  It'll break my heart but I need to see just what his payments were for so that I can put that part of my grief away.  I'm dreading it, but I feel like I have to find out the truth once and for all.

Time to get the breakfast photos resized and put up on this blog and Instagram now, as a slow start to my day I reckon.

Today's (30th June 2026) lunch photo

Today's lunch was supposed to be 2 apples, 2 pears, 2 easy peelers and a 330ml can of a Sparkling Passion pop, but I couldn't even break the skin of the easy peelers, let alone peel them, so I didn't have those today and just had the apples, pears and pop for my lunch instead.

Tomorrow will be a couple of apricots and a few British cherries along with a can of pop.

Here's today's kinda lunch photo:

Mornin' all

Well, I slept really well last night and woke up at 4am but turned over and went back to sleep until 5am.  I took my morning Visible reading and got a huuuge 4 out of 5 for my 'Morning Stability' score, so I'm gonna weigh myself just to check that it's safe for me to do it weight-wise then I'll get started on my exercises.

My blood pressure machine was a nightmare this morning and kept throwing up the same error message until I changed the batteries, then bingo!

I tried to take my pro and pre-biotics this morning, but they were all stuck in a huge lump so I've binned them and I'm gonna get more Omegas instead from Holland & Barrett 'cos I know that they don't all clump up.  I'm also gonna get some more batteries too.

Yesterday's delivery has been delayed (no shit Sherlock!) and the new estimated delivery date is "on or before 2 July" which is Thursday and 2 weeks since I ordered it for supposedly next day delivery!

I've also gotta remember to put the bags down by the door ready for my groceries and put in my next order too.

The daily virus scan found an advanced issue, so I'll publish this, put my breakfast photos up, then today's to-do list while it's resolving.

BBS

Mornin' all

Well, last night I was so anxious that I forgot to take my evening Visible reading and I also forgot to charge it up during the day so I had to take a less reliable camera reading this morning and I'm currently urgently charging up my Visible.

I've swallowed my 10 morning pills and have officially run out of my Omega's too, so that's one less pill to take every morning now.

My blood pressure was high at 113 and my groceries are due this morning, so I'm predicting that any subsitutes (and I'm also predicting that there will be several) won't be suitable for me and the driver won't know how to put them down as rejections, so I'll be paying for food and drink that I can't have as a vegetarian with a dairy allergy, so I'll have to put it all onto Olio.

I'm not hungry this morning, so not having any breakfast, just water until lunchtime, unless the me-friendly cream is in stock, in which case I'll be having creamy drinking chocolates instead.

It's two apples and two pears for my lunch today so missing breakfast isn't really a problem.

The virus scan was reassuringly clear, so time to publish this, get my only breakfast photo up and then today's to-do list.

BBS

Mornin' all

Well, the aim of going to bed at 7pm and waking up at 5am kinda happened, except that I went to bed later because of yesterday's Olio-er and woke up at 4.44am to discover that my 'Morning Stability' reading refused to work... until I came downstairs and noticed that I'd turned my internet off last night lol  It's all working fine now though and I've got a score of 3 out of 5 again so I can do a single set of exercises today, which I'll do after I've had my lunch, which I'll have when my delivery has been (it's due between 7am and 1pm).

My blood pressure was higher than normal, but still a bit low, so I dunno what's going on there!  My hayfever is already making me cough and sneeze and my eyes are streaming and I'm sooo thirsty, so that's gonna make things even worse for me.

I'm expecting my groceries between 10am and 11am today, so I'm predicting that they will turn up at the same time as my delivery lol  I've also gotta remember to put in my next grocery order this morning too.

The daily virus scan was reassuringly clear, so that's a relief.

This first blog post of the day is getting quite long, so I'm shutting up now, getting my breakfast photos up and then today's to-do list.

BBS

Mornin' all

Well, last night's prediction was bang on 'cos my Visible band didn't give me a Morning Stability score again this morning, so I obviously need to keep the battery above 75% if I want that, which is frustrating and means charging it up literally every day.  I'm not gonna charge it up today to see if it's just a blip and it works again tomorrow, but if not then I'll see how low it goes before it stops tracking my pace points.

I've taken my blood pressure and got frustrated 'cos my phone didn't want to work, so I had to reboot and try again - it took 21 minutes to send the photos to myself after taking my blood pressure!!

My morning pills have been popped and I'm not feeling hungry, so it's just the glass of water for my breakfast this morning.

I remembered to start the weekly virus scan off, so that's a positive, and I'm gonna go and get washed and changed for the first time this week when the scan has finished and I've started off the backups.

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