I've been feeling really out of it today. Just in bed in the dark hugging Snoopy.

Struggling to stay awake this afternoon. I had a brief nap too hugging Snoopy.

My supermarket shopping ๐Ÿ›’ was delivered earlier than my slot. I've been for a walk and saw 2 lovely Dogs ๐Ÿ•. They seemed very happy out. I will do my laundry soon.

I have survived another week. This week wasn't too bad. I have a busy week next week so will have to pace myself. I will for now enjoy my Friday burger ๐Ÿ” and chips ๐ŸŸ with Snoopy.

I have more quantities of promethazine in my repeats than a usual 2 weekly script but I guess when the GP pharmacist comes to prescribe next time it will be sorted. It's because the GP who I saw last week didn't put my medication into 2 weekly doses and issued more promethazine.

I got my medications eventually today. Bit of a mix up with the medications at the pharmacist. Didn't have all I was supposed to have so they to get it for me.

I've been out for a walk this morning. I saw no Dogs ๐Ÿ•โ˜น๏ธ. It is a pleasant spring day outside. Today I must update my supermarket shopping order for tomorrow and collect my medication from the pharmacy.

Since December I begun running my mini dehumidifier 24/7 in my little kitchen. Made such a big difference I have hardly had any mold until today. Most winters I would have to do a thorough clean with mold remover in my kitchen every 2-4 weeks. I wish I had thought of it earlier.

Just cleaned a few minor spots of mold in my bathroom and kitchen. Involved me putting dry cloths on my flash speed mop and coating with mold remover sprayer. I wear vinyl gloves and an old t-shirt stained with mold remover. It's the first time I have done it since December.

Fantastic sunshine this morning. Very pleasant out. I've had my haircut this morning so that's a job done. I had it short again. I saw 2 Dogs ๐Ÿ• on way back.

Neighbour next door to my room has been playing loud music since 1pm. It's getting on my nerves. Hopefully not for long now.

Something from the Proverbs from my day calendar today.

I'm in a better position now to any shocks from this Iran war. I have some energy credit and I fixed my rate for 2 years in May 2025 at 24.37p kWh. Supposedly that will be reduced further as government is removing some green levies in April.

I was just looking at my electricity bill in January 2023. It was 68.78p kWh with a discount of 31.84p kWh from the energy price guarantee making a actual cost of 36.94p kWh. I had just been homeless for 6 months so they were tough times moving into this home and setting up.

Well the meeting with the nurse went well. She still wants to see me every month so keeping that up for now. I seem ok at the moment so not much to report. I haven't had any major problems reducing the promethazine and stopping the amitriptyline.

Due to see the Community Psychiatric Nurse (CPN) at 12pm. I'm a bit early so sitting in the park again near the mental health clinic.

Well that was nice listening to Frank Sinatra, then having a meal followed by evening prayers. Snoopy also brings me so much comfort.
I see my nurse tomorrow though I think she is about to discharge me.

BBC News is nothing but the war. I've now got Frank Sinatra on my echo dot which is soothing with Snoopy close by.

Got up at 8:40am. An improvement to gone 9:30am. I think maybe the reduced promethazine is making a difference. I go to bed at 10pm so still sleep long.
I have been for a walk this morning. I saw 5 Dogs ๐Ÿ•. It's sunny here this morning and mild.

I seem to be sneezing alot since I reduced the nightly promethazine on Wednesday. It's a antihistamine so not sure if allergies are being triggered by it. Though I take it for sleep and sometimes PRN.

I saw counsellor online which was good. Commented how I sort of do CBT these days on myself with Jesus. I often think what Jesus would think before I do things.
