second blog of a new dawn

30/11/2016
I'm trying to keep my word at doing a blog a day to keep the demons at bay.

So this is today's entry.  Like captains log star date #### I was going to get up early this morning to get to the 10am Service at my church, but my husband got up first so I didn't make it.  I spent half an hour on the loo and still had nothing to show for it.  Now I'm starving because it's 11.45 am.  I also forgot to put the potatoes in the oven for lunch.  We usually lunch in the middle of the day if we can because it's supposed to be better for your metabolism than eating late at night.  I don't know if it's this cold weather, but I'm hungry all the time now.

I have joined twitter so my twitter account is @dalea1carol.  I still have no idea what I'm doing with Facebook or now twitter or this blog.

Bye from the bewildered problem swallower

A blog a day keeps the demons at bay

I've been neglecting my blog lately, that's because no-one seems to be able to find it and as I started this blog because I had dysphagia (problems swallowing), there isn't so much to say now in that my weight has gone back to what it was unfortunately, (I would like it to have stopped before I got to feel fat and bloated again) and although my swallowing isn't back to normal, that too is getting better, though I do take a long time to eat now and drink. I still don't think I'm drinking enough a day.

So I've decided to write about other things, not that my life is all that exciting at the moment.  I just had what will probably be the last session with a counsellor. He'll be retiring in June next year anyway. I was thinking this morning that on my gravestone they should put 'Well I tried'. I feel like nothing I ever do is good enough.  I shared this with my counsellor and  he said I am enough.  Everyone feels on the outside looking in at times and very often the chit chat is a façade, to cover up that they feel left out as well.
I will endeavor to do more blogs and hope that people are getting them.
I'm having difficulty answering Facebook messages.  I type a reply, but then the message comes up do you want to leave this page or do you want to stay on this page, you haven't finished your reply.  I don't know what that means because I have finished it and I can't send it off. I think people are having problems replying to this blog too and I don't know what to do about that either.
Hey ho it's time to get Christmas started by sending out my annual cards.

Bye for now

One Teasshirt short of a full load again

Yes I did it again folks; taking about never knowing what day it is, I put the Wednesday wash clothes out on Monday night only this I knew why I was a T shirt short.  Everything's creeping up on me so quickly.  I don't get any time to prepare myself for the day ahead.  I have to think about remembrance Sunday now and  Autumn Songs to sing with my poet friend, for the nursing home.  I'm seeing my doctor tomorrow  about changing my medication now that I've reached 8 stone 3.  I think I'll have to stop taking the fortecremes and maybe the Fortisips.  Trouble is I don't know what to take instead and I get really hungry now, and still not swallowing properly so worried that I'm dehydrated.

Anyway bye for now and wrap up it's getting colder.
