20/12/21 Various

Another cold, damp, foggy winter day, temperature not getting above 3C until the evening when then light had long gone when it got as high as 6. Despite the best of intentions I never got out for a walk but reached my qute high activity target anyway.

Added to my finger spilt etc. problems by nicking the end of my left thumb with a kitchen knife while doing the fiddly job of peeling some leftover shallots, and then getting a scratch on the base of my left thumb while getting hold of one of the cats for Sue to deliver her monthly flea treatment.

Have been rather less sleepy, perhaps because of two dex days (Saturday and Sunday). Still no sign of a CPAP machine. Will ask Dr.Ch if he can chase it up a bit when we speak later this morning. The appointment is for 11:00 and I have a prescription to collect from the GP surgery so will fit that in after breakfast. On past form he's not likely to call until at least an hour after  the time, and probably longer.

 Depending on how times work out I may try for Southend Superdrug to get rid of all those empty blister packs in a responsible way.

Several moe reports of people getting molnupravir delivered - some by courier, some by post. The postal route is a little worrying with the inevitable delays at this time of year (plus local delivery problems in Chelmsford, where some people haven't been getting post for several days at a time).

Also a rather worrying piece in The Guardian "Rising number of blood cancer patients dying of Covid in England and Wales":

Too long to quote in full.

Hit my quite large activity target  (by 1 point) by going up and down the stairs a couple of otherwise unnecessary times.

Can't think of an appropriate image to add tonight. So this will have to do:
