Well, I can't weigh in today, but I am able to get online!

First day in what I fondly call "Six finger country". I'm sure there's an equivalent in the US... South island. Heh. South Islanders call it the 'mainland' and threaten to 'cut the cable' (most of our electricity used to come from South Island rivers and there is or was a huge cable running through Cook Strait to the north island supplying power.

Anyway my point is I'm allowed to be racist against south islanders. Also mum's side of the family is from down here.

I've spent my first morning cleaning for a friend who has lost his mother. I feel awful for him, she was a real gem and he looked after her through everything. This is literally my oldest friend, from childhood.

And I have another darling friend who's just had a baby, who I will get to see and play with... and uncles and aunties galore.

:) It's nice to get out of my own space.

Well I've been pretty sidetracked the last few weeks. I've had constant diarrhoea, which went when I went off keto but ... then came back. Severe. I've had a UTI that will not leave me alone, I'm now on horse pills for 10 days and gone in for all of the tests a person can get.

Nausea's been crippling, pelvis hurts appallingly all the time, I haven't been making good choices with food and I don't even care.

Considering going back on a milk fast, because I know milk doesn't hurt my guts.

This process happens a lot to me. I lose a chunk of weight, and then get really sick, and then stop focusing on the weight loss because the non-variables, of me working full time, paying the mortgage, etc etc, do not shift and so I just have to shuffle the rest of my life around to accommodate that.

I've had bad energy for nearly 10 yrs now, I had a moan at the doctor's this morning; Pelvic pain, nausea and exhaustion have been full time companions for nearly a decade, and there's no respite when you HAVE to keep working because you have children, and no husband. You grind your way through things you otherwise might rather rest from.

I dream often of selling my house, telling the boss to find someone else, and going and living in a house truck. I could work the orchards all around New Zealand. I watch videos about places like "Slab City" and I dream of moving there. I want an escape from the hell that is constant ongoing work when sick.

Oh a happier note I'm going away for a week on Tuesday, staying with a friend that wants to try keto, so maybe that will get me back in the game. God, antibiotics and gut problems willing.


... at least I haven't gone up from 89, right?
