… night that was last night.
There have certainly been nights when I’ve felt as though I’ve lain awake all night, but last night with the bedroom door open I could see the clock all the way through the night.
In fact I’d been to bed very early and dropped off for an hour or so, but that was that. I spent the rest of the evening lying there watching the clock.
By 04:45 I was up and about having my medication and by the time the alarm went off I was already eating my breakfast.
However there was no chance of my keeping going. By about 08:15 I was back in bed asleep for an hour or so.
And that’s how my day has been – up and about for a couple of hours and then crashing out in bed for an hour or so.
The leg is still giving me sheer agony, but it’s quite comfortable when I’m lying in bed – so it’s not too much of a disappointment. I need to take it easy and to rest the leg.
During my more lucid moments I’ve been reading the manual for the new camera, ordered 500 business cards and done some packing. And that vacuum bag that I bought a few weeks ago, as regular readers will recall, works in spades because I have enough clothes for several weeks now packed into a tiny space. I just hope that I can find a vacuum cleaner at the other end of my trip when I need to repack it.
There was also some time to add another day or two’s blog entry texts to the Canada 2017 page.
Lunch was rather late – about 16:00 in fact – due to various reasons, and so I’ve not had tea tonight. It’s been a few nights this week that I’ve not had tea and I’ve lost 3kgs. That’s always good news.
But now I’m off to bed. I’m not all that tired but I can listen to the radio for a while.
Sunday tomorrow so there might be a lie-in. And I’ll try for a pizza for tea again.
