Journal – Week 21, May 2026

Monday was an exicting day for Koa, as he got to drive in the back of Skoosh for the first time on his own. And, he went to the woods for the first time... He was done when we got home, haha. Tuesday, my mum came to doggy-sit, so that I could visit the physio and get a few groceries. On Wednesday, we had a relaxing day. On Thursday, we went to Nijmegen early in the morning. My mum would doggy-sit again, and I could go to Germany for groceries and all that. On Friday, I had a dentist appointment. Saturday was supposed to be a relaxing day, but a big beast made me in need of resuscitation..! And Sunday, Koa was spoiled with his own little puppy pool!

Journal – Week 20 🥳, May 2026

The week started with my 46th birthday! Happy b-day me... Last year, my b-day turned into a tragedy, so it was a bit hard to shake that off... On Tuesday, Nicole came to puppy-sit Koa, so I could visit the physio, which was very much welcome... On Wednesday, someone from the WMO (city's support) came to our place, to discuss the help I'd need, and the help I would be allowed and able to get. Thursday we had a more relaxing day, the first one in a while, and it was really nice. Friday, mum came to puppy-sit, and I coud visit the physio, and get a few things from the supermarket. The weekend, we tried to relax, ut I also tried to offer some new things to Koa, like new walking routes and such. The weather had its moments, but we had quite a bit of rain, some of the days...

Losing some weight

I've been struggling with my weight for many years. It goes up, and up some more... I get tired of looking like I do, and feeling like I do, and I try to find ways to work towards losing the weight again. Sometimes, I'm successful, and after hard work, and loads of efforts, I manage to get my weight back to a healthier number. I do my best to keep it there, until something happens, or several things happen, and I lose the ability to keep the weight down... I will "do my best", but it won't be enough. I need to find a way to make some changes, to get back on track to what worked before. To find a way to be able to lose weight again. I'll try to change my routine in the gym. I'll try to watch my food better, to buy less unhealthy stuff... And it takes time... But, if I'm lucky, after a while, I may start to lose some weight again. Sometimes I am very fortunate, and it has a quick and efficient effect. Sometimes, it takes me way too long, and I start to think that maybe this time, I just can't make the change anymlre. I've been on that point for a while now, but... 🍀 […]
