Hands feel like they’re giant lumps this morning. Must be a pressure change.
Goals: shower, escape the house for a little while. Have been increasing the distance I’ve been walking each day. Next weekend I shall be back to running. Current weekly distance, Monday-Friday: 45, or 9 km per day. Hence the urge to stay in bed on weekends.
Made a new friend last night playing RuneScape. Other side of the world. They’re nice. Has already taken to calling me names, which is a good sign. Has been a place for me to chill out after work, take mind away.
Work will be more tolerable the next few weeks. Boss won’t be there for at least a few days. Engineer is giving me lots of support - had a very good discussion with him on Friday. No details on here, but when I said power of friendship, this is what I meant. Don’t feel quite so alone / insane.
Yah, need to go the shops today. This might be a 50km week with zero running. My legs are thickening. Gratefully the muscle growth has been enough to make the disabling and debilitating pain of the arthritis easier to bear - literally, I’ve changed the way I walk and run to take pressure off my foot, put it on other bones instead. Go my fleshy tendons, go.
Righty oh. Time to get into warm water. Try to make body a little more living.
