Clocks forward today – and I spent most of it doing housework and chatting to PJ, while listening to Genesis albums in chronological order (1969 onwards) on Spotify. Did an extended Pilates session before that though, also squeezed in a walk before the sun went down.
Had a reminder today to take better care of my health, in the form of noticing feeling asthmatic. Someone I know (and respect!) once said something to me like “You worry a lot about your health, don’t you?”… and it’s not quite that, but if you have long-term medical conditions then you have to keep an eye out for things that will make them worse and proactively do things that will keep you healthy. That’s where I failed the past few days – I’ve been not taking my steroid inhaler because I had used one up and I couldn’t be bothered (times about 4 doses) to get the new inhaler out of the box and to peel all the annoying plastic covering off it in order to be able to use it. Today there was inhaler use, much Spring cleaning, and a resolve to take the exercising more seriously, not just today, not just for Gloji, but for my lungs! It’s been a great day, and being a tiny bit tight-chested for a while is not the worst thing in the world.
Right: I’m not sure what to call this. It was going to be chicken in a mushroom sauce with carrots and broccoli but it came out more like a stew. The bread with it is a gluten-free ciabatta with buckwheat and sourdough. I don’t need GF food particularly, I like this ciabatta though because it tastes really nice – you have to finish baking it in the oven first and it comes out smelling a bit like beer.
