    11/27 for me today please.

    Had my annual health check today, during which I had to say what a typical day's food consisted of. By the end, the Doctor looked like he was going to ask to come for dinner! The only suggestion he made was to swap to dark chocolate rather than milk chocolate when I said if there was chocolate in the house I'd gobble it down.

    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    12/28 for me please cathybird, had nothing to drink so far this month. Thank you.

    …aaand I see they’ve messed around with the formatting features once again (I’d italicise that last word if I could) so I can’t make anything bold. Grr.


    Really great work on your dry year, redofromstart. That is seriously impressive.

    12/27 for me today please.

    For keyboarders:

    To bold something, press shift and B together. Repeat to un-bold.

    To italicise something, press shift and i together. Repeat to un-italicise.
