4.06.2026 Strimming, in the rain!

 ~?~

  Thursday 4th 59F/15C [7.15] Heavily overcast and windy. Another day with showers. Possibly with thunder. 69F/21C in the room. 60F/15.6C in the greenhouse.

 Up at 5.40 after several earlier coughing bouts. Sitting on the edge of the bed my get my breath back. Then propping myself up on pillows helped me to get back to sleep. Recovery is far too slow for my liking! 

 9.40 First sunshine. Still coughing. I have noticed that I am no longer waking so many times to visit the fire bucket. Also that the pain in my hands and wrists has reduced. This is despite having run out of special prescription Panodil.

 11.10 I have been strimming the Western Lawn. Until it started raining hard and I became so breathless I had to sit down. The grass and dandelions had grown so tall that the mower wouldn't touch it yesterday. It hadn't been cut so far this year. It was riddled with molehills in the spring. Which made the mower too hard for me to push. I'll just have to keep going back until it is manageable.

  Dinner was sausages on bread rolls. I split them to ensure they were cooked right through. I wasn't very hungry and it was quite a struggle to finish them.
