I’m just finishing breakfast in bed (a blueberry yoghurt and some strawberries) with the television on. I’m not really quite with it yet but probably need to drink more coffee. I love Sundays!

So tired – only just got up. Very worried about the news that Russia is building up lots of troops to be sent to Belarus again. Sounds like they are at it again – not that they ever stopped. Just when USA are withdrawing their support for Ukraine and the rest of Europe.

The political situation in America is very worrying and its effect on the world could be devastating. We need to keep a close eye on what is happening!

I slept for three hours and then wide awake. Came downstairs again. The television is on and I have ordered a grocery delivery and a duvet cover set. Now wondering if I could try to get back to sleep or postpone for a while. Another yawn. Think I will head back upstairs.

I watched with astonishment as a certain wealthy American talked last night as though he is the President and Trump just sat there looking dense. Does this mean that twitter is in power over the world.

I have just dragged myself out of bed. Really very tired. Received that phone call message earlier about two bank transfers which I believe is a scam so I hung up. Really depressing and worrying that these people do this.

I couldn’t get to sleep last night and eventually gave up and came downstairs. I read much of my New Statesman which I didn’t get to over the weekend and watched television and nodded off for about half an hour. Never mind, l should sleep well tonight.

I must admit that when I am watching a Tory MP on the television and they are saying all that they are going to do if they were in power and it really pisses me off. They have just been in power for fourteen years and they didn’t do any of it. Do they really think the people are going to believe them!!

Yesterday I had to go to the hospital. The doctor checked out my wrist by ultrasound and then found, as diagnosed, an angry tendon which he injected with anaesthetic and then a steroid guided by the ultrasound. It is hurting a fair bit but I am hopeful.

The guy came from the alarm company and told me that everything is working fine and I must be thrashing around in my sleep and setting off the fall sensor in the wristband. And then sleeping through the sound on my wrist, too far away from the console and just reacting to the phone call checking up on me. Oh dear!!
