November 2025


1st
: Here we go, 11th month, how did we get here so fast?
Finally up, shoulders both in agony this morning and arms are aching terrible, neck and upper back too, and my left knee.
8:55pm - Feeling cold and very achy this evening, time to head for bed and watch something until I nod off

2nd: Woken up at 3:40am with shooting pain up my back, and a painful hip, plus a bit of acid reflux.
7:50am - Just a bit longer in bed, feeling like crap this morning.
10:10am - It's one of those days, cut myself shaving, and dropped a saucer on the floor which broke 😔 Only been out of bed since 9:30 🙄
7:50pm - Had to rally to put my recycling out, fireworks going off this evening, some making me jump out of my skin. Feeling a chill, heating pad for a bit then bed.

3rd: Not sure why, but I can't keep warm, feeling cold despite heating pad and electric over blanket. Also feeling very achy, don't know what's wrong.
5pm - Was getting something out of the kitchen cupboard so I could do food and did my back in, it's killing me now 😩 may result to take away delivery - so much for being independent.
9:45pm - OWCH 😩 I had a slight mishap after going to the loo, went to get in to bed and fell out when getting back in, that hurt, seemed to have pulled half the bedding with me.

4th: Blast it, can hardly move without great pain. I must get up as I need my tablets, need to pop to the chemist, post a letter and get milk. I hate relying on others for simple things. Every move I try making, zaps my energy too.

5th: Woken up in agony, skin itchy, brain noisey - nasty fibromyalgia flare up 😩.
11:45am - That feeling when you want to go and be creative but your body says don't over do it and part of your mind says heating pad and electric blanket. I'm trying to do more and get more out of life but unable to do what I want when I want, makes me feel sick and fed up.
8:15pm - Just finished off a bottle of cbd oil, back still hurting too much, more heat I hope helps, so bed for me.

6th: Feeling a bit less achy than yesterday, more or less back to my normal level of aches and pains, hope I can get some things done today, as last few days not managed much at all.
I need to compose and send a letter to my Dad's relation in South Africa, not going to be easy to write, but needs must.
3pm - Ffs, can't even make my bed without starting my back off. Feel fed up.

7th: Pushing through the pain, just like every other day, left knee playing up big time today.

8th: Been sleeping most of the day today, one of those days, when aching all over, being in bed is the best place to be where an electric blanket turned on makes it the best place to be.

9th: It seems dark outside..... Im warm and snug under duvet, its Sunday, have to sort recycling out today AND must record a show but voice seems croaky so I can't really do that 😔

10th: Very achy this morning, and sick with it too. Shoulders, neck and back, along with left hip, feels like I want to scratch inside it again.
7:30pm - In agony this evening, so early to bed with my electric blanket.

11th: 5am - Woke up in agony, skin feels itchy, bones feel like I want to crack them open and scratch inside, thumping headache and feel sick. This is my life, don't know why my body deals me this on an almost regular basis to some degree... It sucks.

12th: Woke up after not much sleep in pain again, right arm is killing, also got the runs and headache too... Feeling lousy.... and cold.
I should be having my covid jab today.
9:15pm - feeling a little sick and arm hurts a bit, need my bed.

13th: Was sick in the night, feeling weak now, also achy and shivery, my arm is killing me after yesterday's Covid jab. Must think about getting up, but right now just want to stay in bed.
6pm - Feeling a bit under the weather, may need to head under my duvet early.

14th: Been awake since 5am, seem to be a bit stiff this morning, can't really move. There's something I have to do today, but can't remember what? Damn brain fog.
Sounds very wet out there this morning.

15th: Wasn't online much, sometimes it has to happen, remove yourself from technology for the sake of ones mind. Wasn't too good but had managed to sort myself out and go to a friends civil partnership celebration.

17th: Sort of been avoiding online since yesterday's walk, sometimes you have to. Been a bit achy since waking up but threw myself into nature and the fresh air.... It was needed so I had to do it. Now more achy but it was worth it. By the way photos I took yesterday can be viewed on my Facebook page.

18th: Feels like a cold one, been sick this morning, and very achy, too cold out of bed.... staying under duvet a little longer.
4:30pm - Earlier, went to get out of the car and my knee went weak, almost sending me falling to the ground, It's been doing that more recently, making getting up stairs interesting. I really need a ground floor flat or bungalow.

19th: 1:25am - Woke up in agony, knee weak still and body is itchy, back and hips also killing....
7:30am - Feeling like crap. Need to pee, not sure I can get out of bed, lets see shall we?
That was iffy, my knee is weak, my left hip hurts like hell, and the lower back too. 

20th: Bit achy, but not too bad, sleep to ve disrupted, cricket starts in the early hours.

21st: Woke up at 1:15am for the cricket in Australia to watch it live, went to sleep after it for hour or so, had tablets and back to sleep for few more hours. Off out later then back home for more sleep ahead if cricket at 2am.
Come on England in the Ashes! They are doing good so far!
I'm a bit achy but because of not much sleep managed to keep moving. 

22nd: Time to watch Saturday Kitchen..... was Live (recorded from earlier as went to bed after the Cricket), a tad in the achy side, but will be ok after some heat I gope!

23rd: I should get out of bed, back and hips in agony. Need to record a show, have my tablets AND go to get some milk.... plus sort out my recycling to put out 🫣
1pm - Well I've recorded my show and got some milk, I'm even more achy now than I was.... damn it. Still got my recycling to sort out, also my bedroom ahead if tomorrow, got Caredig coming to look at the damp problem by the window.

24th: Woke up at 5am in agony again, damn fibro flare up. Must get up, got Caredig coming later. 

25th: I should get out of bed, sorting out to do today, also need to talk to solicitor and print things off from estate agents. Only problem is my right hip is playing up, and lower back too.
One of my teeth has gone very sensitive and is hurting. Feel like crap, pain killers taken, cbd oil taken too, won't be long until bed I feel that bad. Have emailed the dentist.

26th: Another achy start along with toothache - feel like crap. Must get up and do a few things. Also got a dodgy stomach.

27th: 2:45am - Woken up in agony, thumping headache, neck and back killing, skin feeling itchy all over, feel itchy through to the core of every bone. Damn #fibromyalgia.
7:50 - Still not right, fibro flare up, subsided a little. My gum is still sore after yesterday's tooth extraction. I must get out of bed, need my medication and got a hectic day ahead..... Could do with more time in bed.

28th: Didn't do much today, bit of a non starter kind of day.

29th: Owch, my left knee is killing, feel like crap, back too. Going to be one of those days, and I've got Nero today for a few hours... I must try to get out of bed.

30th: Started the day aching, didn't really improve. By the evening it had turned wet and I had to put recycling out.
So that's November done with, what will December bring? fingers crossed Dad's house sells!
