April 2024

It’s nearly two years since I last posted here…

For the first time in my life, it feels like my body has taken over control of everything I do.


Because, whenever I start any mildly energetic activity — within a few minutes, my body rebels, forcing me to lie down, and take a rest.

Suddenly, I’m faced with the loss of so many things I’ve enjoyed throughout my life. Such as woodworking, fixing my bike, DIY, cycling, exploring the Hebrides, and loads more…

But, I’m grateful for my lucky life, and all its happy memories. And, gradually I’m coming to terms with being ill, and getting old.

Writing things down might help, whether I publish them here, or not.
