Waiting...

...for hospital transport!. Yes, most people go to hospital in an ambulance in an emergency... I'm going in one that was booked a week in advance.  I'm seeing the "neurological rehabilitation team" AKA a physio and who knows what else.  I was referred for physio, anyway.  Getting a bit antsy now but there's still over an hour until my appt time.

09:21 


I've had a round of sausage sandwiches. Made last night and stuck in the fridge. Not that great actually. And I'm working my way through a pint of cranberry and raspberry squash,  I've stuck some crisps and a big bottle of drink in my handbag. Just remembered that I meant to stick some raisins in there too.

LATER

I had a load of diet lemonade at the hospital which I then finished at sailing (I took a litre bottle as my water bottle doesn't hold enough and it was cheaper than buying a bigger bottle of water).  I also snacked on some crisps and after a long wait bought a couple of biscuits.  As soon as I bought those the transport turned up so they got shoved in my bag where they got turned into crumbs so I'll probably bin them.

When I got home I had some squash and some spam and chips.

At sailing I had a pint of orange juice and lemonade in the bar - yummy yummy.

And I had a bowl of rice krispies when I got home to take my meds with (and because I was really hungry)

Tuesday, Tuesday

Slept really late today, almost by accident (I meant to sleep in but not by that much!).  Still sleepy.  No breakfast as a result although I did grab a little bit of sandwich chicken to take the edge off while waiting for my lunch to be ready.

Started the day with some water and then had a pint of squash once I was up properly.  I was drinking water in the night too.

I've got Jackets in the oven for lunch (I eat a hot meal at lunch time on a Tuesday because of sailing) which I'll have with cheese and a touch of spread.  I'm going to grab another glass of squash to have now and I'll probably have diet lemonade with my lunch.

I actually ended up having a roast chicken breast with my lunch as well as it needed using up.  That meant I was so full I didn't need a before sailing snack which is another bonus!

22:22

Back from sailing, been back a while.  Really enjoyed it - a nice night for a sail and much better weather than it had been all day.  I did a chunk of the wheeling myself up at the sailing club so that will count as my exercise for the day even though I'd prefer to have done a little more.  Also, being in the boat was a really good stretch for my legs which really haven't been working well today.  I needed help getting them in the car both times and getting them out when we got to sailing.  I did manage to get out of the car when I got home without help though.

I had a second glass of diet lemonade before we went sailing then at the sailing club I had a pint of water and a pint of orange juice and lemonade.  My Sertraline induced dry mouth appears to have reappeared although nowhere near as bad as it was Fri/Sat.

I had two rounds of chicken sandwiches on wholemeal bread when I got home and yet more diet lemonade.  I really must drink more water tomorrow!
