Morning All!
It's Wednesday
Yesterday: Morning was going ok, food arrived, L & J departed for Devon.... then the weather turned grey, I had a fall getting up from the loo and my head decided to have it's worst day for some time :-( Managed OK, just not as well as I was hoping in the peace & quiet and certainly didn't get what I wanted done. Not a running out of spoons day more a just feeling down day. Legacy reveal at 6pm was a bit disappointing. Epic arrived, other parcels didn't. Maybe today?
Had better nights: got off OK but woke at 4 feeling cold, not happy tummy and coughing. Awake then for an hour or so but managed a bit more sleep. Not great this morning.
Today: Leading 8am, Zooming a friend at 10, Homegroup tonight. Parcels expected.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK, better than yesterday. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

Day long severe headache today so work was a trial (came close to phoning in sick) and I went straight to bed afterwards for most of the evening so no Uni work done today. Try again tomorrow.

Morning All!
It's Thursday
Yesterday: Not the easiest of days. Tuesday had been rough on the head and on the body but at some point during it (or possibly before?) I must have eaten something that disagreed with me. Up 4-5:30 ish with an irritated tummy, feeling very cold and coughing. That set me back for the morning though I'm told I did OK leading the 8am Prayer Meeting. Got a chance to chat to my friend Louise on Zoom during the morning. Had to spend the day watching what I ate as tummy continued to be "not great". Two small boxes arrived, hopefully some more today. J & L doing fine in Devon, trip is proving really good.
2am before I slept:-(
Today: Extra teching at 1pm. Some blog & TMUK Poll stuff to do, plus I need to check the PRH book date changes and am hoping it's not as bad as the last twp weeks! Should be Marvel Solicitations today I think. Bins and recycling need to go out. That might be a problem for me physically, I may need some help.

It's FRIDAY
Yesterday: Much better day. Got quite a bit done. Taking Bins out proved beyond me and assistance was summoned, f0r which I am very grateful. That was expected but still quite sobering. J has been told never to be away on bin day again!
Awake till 2am :-(
Today: L&J due back, J out tonight at church youth event. Two parcels due.

Morning All!
It's SATURDAY!!
Yesterday: Bit tiring. L & J safely home but L's Dad had a fall and is in hospital. Forgetting my tablets at breakfast was a mistake and I only found out when I went to check I'd had them at lunch (I hadn't - first dose at 2pm is a very bad idea). In my defence the morning was a bit disrupted by a BT engineer showing up at 8:30 to look at our phone and broadband! (Third time in recent months)
Decent night's sleep, Thank You Lord!
Today: Hopefully quieter. Bit of prep for tomorrow. L's sister coming for lunch, Zooming Mum, TMUK Zoom tonight.

Morning All!
It's Sunday
Yesterday: Decent night's sleep and start to the day but dipped a bit in morning as things got busier. Head got overwhelmed when someone said something to me as I walked into the room trying to do something else. Had a couple of momen ts in fact where there wasn't quite enough spoons for normal function. Tummy pain early evening after which I felt really tired which hit me a bit during the TMUK call.
Today: Church this morning, then this afternoon our family expands by two Guinea Pigs!

Went for a nap late afternoon yesterday. Got up, had dinner, back to the laptop for more Uni research then back to bed. I couldn't rise again until 9am. Same routine lies ahead today.

A rare early wake and energy to do something so off to the carboot sale.
Oddly no Transformers. But I did find a small bin, a Sony Blu Ray Player, a Samsung 3D Blu Ray Player, LOTR theatrical Blu Rays and a 8mm video head cleaner cassette (something I was specifically looking for when I decided to go out) all for £12.
Both players work. The LOTR discs were brand new but the cases had been smashed, they play fine. The bin is perfect for food waste. So results all around.
Just need to get some cleaning fluid and see if the cleaning cassette works.

"8mm video head cleaner cassette".
Of course! Only you could go specifically to a car boot for such a niche item from the past and would find it!!!

Did some essay work. Went for a nap. Got up. Did some more. The cycle continues.
33 days left to degree completion (I hope).
I am constantly knackered. The last six years of work on this have finally caught up with me, coupled with still learning an entirely different employment sector in my new career.
Burning the candle at both ends for too many months now.
Still, only 33 days left of the degree work.
