One Today

Well technically, most people would not consider it one today, since 2012 was a leap year, even though leap years are a manmade artefact. The Earth actually takes very nearly 365 days, 5 hours and 48.766 minutes to go around the Sun (this is the mean solar day). This blip is more than 365 and a quarter days after my first one, so it really is a year since I started.

This morning I was awake and up before 0630 hours and got out in the garden to do a bit of tidying up between 0800 hours and 1000 hours, when I came in to get warm and for a cup of coffee. Within minutes of this, without any warning I developed a very severe migraine, so dosed up with maximum safe dose of painkillers, together with Sumatriptan I went back to bed. Just after 1500 hours I awoke with just a mild headache remaining, but feeling absolutely washed out, so my 365th consecutive blip was done in more of a rush than I intended and is presented here.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has visited and commented on my blips over the past year and hope that you will continue visiting.
