Blood test done 17 months ago

and ultrasound is Monday morning – have to remember, a pint of water an hour before. And then, will call the doctor’s on friday to see what they say about the results.



Going to the blood test tomorrow 17 months ago

and will try to make the appointment for ultrasound tomorrow too.



A reminder to myself here: 17 months ago

need to call up about blood test and ultrasound this week.



I've always loved 18 months ago

the Sunscreen Song – but I guess it wasn’t until very recently that the line “Enjoy your body, use it every way you can. Don’t be afraid of it, or what other people think of it, it’s the greatest instrument you’ll ever own.” really sank in for me. I’m lucky enough to have felt fairly invulnerable in the past – being young, without major health problems, you take your body being strong and healthy and doing what it’s supposed to for granted. Recently, it’s not been doing what it’s supposed to so much. Guess it took that to make me value it.

As I get older, it’s only going to get harder. So I need to eat properly and exercise regularly and get enough sleep, protect my body, give it the best chance it has, do what’s within my control. Eating properly is the hardest for me – depression, mostly. So I need to do that. I have enough things to deal with, things I still want to do with my life – I need my body to be healthy to do all those things.
