And Shockprowl beat me with a legal post and he didn't fall into Ralph's carefully baited "get the year wrong" trap

Morning All!
It's Monday - isn't it odd how frequently *THAT* happens? - 2022 week 12.
Yesterday: Church in the morning, did a little bit of projection training. Slept all afternoon. Back out for a worship evening later on. Tired at end of day.
Today: Teching 8am. Leading 10am. Hopefully watching the last episode of the DW story I've been blogging. L working, J College.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

I would have called it Week 12: Bullet Time to mark today's shiny disc release, but Hub Chess Week will have to do.

Morning All!
It's Tuesday
Yesterday: Everything basically went OK, busy morning. Managed to watch the last episode of the DW story I've been blogging, just need to put the screencaps in now. Crashed a bit just before dinner with a major headache and then managed to have a nasty fall on landing: right ankle went and on my way down I caught my shoulder & back on the banister.
Today: L teaching, J college, food due.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

Today involves pain, probably courtesy of a fall on the landing last night where I rolled my ankle and caught my back/shoulder on the bannister, and a struggling head (not sure why)

It's Wednesday
Yesterday: Today involved pain, probably courtesy of a fall on the landing last night where I rolled my ankle and caught my back/shoulder on the bannister, and a struggling head (not sure why) Noise sensitivity up, face quite painful at times. BUT got the episode watched I needed to, so been slotting new pics into the old blog before rewriting, did some book stuff and got the new X-Men Epic ordered cyheap
Today: Not sure, think I'm on my own for a fair bit. 2 Epics expected. Homegroup tonight.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.

Morning All!
It's Thursday
Yesterday: Day went OK, much better all round than Tuesday.... with the mild caveat of a cough that I thought was probably my hayfever kicking in. Knowing we were expecting a visitor Friday I reached for the LFTs and got a bit of a shock....
Apart from the cough, the symptoms are all but identical to when I was ill two years ago, aches in the same places, pain in the cheeks. Woken early last two mornings, which I was also doing a lot of then.
It strikes me that today is two years since the start of the first full lockdown and thus two years since I was brought home from London, not feeling very well and in a poor state of mind. To cop Covid two years to the day seems a little ironic. I feel so similar physically to how I did then and we now think it highly likely I had covid at that point too.
Today: Leading 8am. Blog spellchecking. And very little else. J college if he passes this morning's LFT and the college confirm he's OK to come in. L teaching 3 times. Bins out. And rearranging the schedules for the next week or so!
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

Erk, not good, Phil!  There's no justice in who's catching Covid right now. I really should have caught it in London but didn't, while my dad caught it after two quiet weeks at home. (He's fine.) All I can think is that 3 months on, the third jab is warding off infection, whereas 5 months on that protection is dropping off? I dunno. Martin |

Chess is a well established cure for Covid.
(Hope your symptoms remain fairly mild Big Phil.)
