Another decent night of sleep. Not quite as good as the night before, but I only woke up twice (3am and 7am). I think I was slightly more medicated the night before, which could explain it. I’m feeling that I have a little more energy today.
I leap out of bed (okay, it’s more of a crawl) at 9.25am, adjust my neurostimulator to daytime settings, and go downstairs to where my morning cuppa and Nutriblast are awaiting my attention (courtesy of my wonderful wife). My wife is off swimming with our granddaughter this morning, so she’s out of the door soon after I get up. I take the dog for her morning business, and then spend some time checking my DropBox file uploads (still chuntering away) and my email (nothing but junk mail).
When my wife returns, we head off towards Norwich – we have a couple of pre/post-Christmas birthdays to buy for, as well as Christmas gifts we need to purchase. First stop is Asda to stock up on beer (we have our priorities right) and pressies for the dogs (yes, we really are that soft!). Then we drop into Dunelm Mills to pick up something that my wife found online a couple of evenings ago. Final stop is Aldi in Sprowston – principally for organic vegetables, but my wife managed to find a couple of gifts in there as well. Home again by 5pm, and it’s already completely dark. We both take the dog for a brief walk around a very dark field, and then sort out some dinner, and relax!
I’ve been pretty tremor free today, but now I notice the shakes coming through in my right hand, and dystonia is increased in my right foot – I’m not going to adjust my device, but I am going to self medicate (cannabis). I’m sure it’s just because I’m tiring from this afternoon’s activities.
