Short one tonight.

Slept flat. Whole night. Flat.

Joint pain much better. She credits the oestrogen and says so.

Up the stairs at work twice without stopping at the landing. I stood at the top for a second like an idiot. Nobody saw. It counted.

Tied my own laces standing up. I am aware of how that sounds and I do not care.

Swam. First time since school. Two lengths, badly, grinning.

Walked into town and back, which I stopped doing years ago without ever deciding to stop.

Bed, at a sensible hour for once.

Writing this down for my own review, if you do not mind. The question you asked is the one I have been failing to ask for a year.

No wisdom, just: I am sorry. That sounds genuinely hard.

The bit about the two hours before is exactly it. I have never seen anyone put it that way.
