Knitting and shit

Measuring my blood pressure all the time is shit - it goes up and down all the fucking time - now as soon as I pick up the device I can hear my heart pound. Meh. Back up to mental this evening though OK this morning.

N the ex-care home manager sent me a photo I hadn't seen before, that had come up on her facebook 'on this day' from four years ago. Sam in her bed, with N squeezed in next to her and Sam holding her, one hand on N's head and one on her back. They just loved each other, those two.

Too tired today. Bed.

Three good things:

1. I walked by the harbour, saw a big ship going through the lock gates - love that
2. A programme about craftivism, using crafts to carry a message - loved HombresTejedores - men who knit, from Chile, knitting as a form of protest against toxic masculinity (I think) Tejiendo una nueva sociedad - knitting a new society
3. Long chat with M who had been sped through the system for an oncology appointment within three working days of calling her doctor, but all clear, thank fuck.
