Thursday and I wake early and run through my pre getting up rituals quite quickly before making breakfast and taking my morning meds. My morning is spent researching possible holiday venues for June and circulating the information to the family. I read for a while before lunch and then do some more work on the poetry collections. By mid afternoon I have started to draft the blog but I can feel myself losing concentration and energy, it is clearly one of those days where I did not start out with much energy. I might nap.

My evening arrives and I eat and watch half a film while my partner has her singing lesson. The rest of the evening disappears into Designated Survivor until I take my night chemo, which nearly choked me, and finish todays blog. At the last moment the final draft of my poetry collection comes through. I am desperately tired and need to rest.
