I got some bad news yesterday. We found out a couple of months ago that my brother out-law has been diagnosed with thyroid cancer. He had the thyroid removed a couple of weeks ago, which appeared to go well, but they've now got the results of the biopsy, and they didn't get it all. I don't yet have any more details of the prognosis, but it's pretty worrying.
In the face of that it seems a bit churlish to complain that I'm feeling under the weather, but still... I don't actually seem to have any symptoms of anything, but I've been sleeping loads - last night I went to bed at half past nine, thinking "when I wake up ridiculously early I can just use the time to get on with stuff", and then the next thing I know is my alarm going off ten hours later. Also running has felt rather harder than it should for the last couple of days.
On a more cheering note, I am quite pleased with myself for managing to drag myself out and go for a run anyway, despite really really not feeling like it. It was both shorter and slower than planned, but I think good for habit forming anyway. I've got choir practice this afternoon, which I'm looking forward to, and then I'm seeing Nathan this evening, and![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
leonato on stage on Thursday, and then this weekend obandsoller and I are going out for a transferred Valentines Day dinner, since a)I'm in Huddersfield, and b)we want to avoid the overpriced set menus on the day itself. So lots of good stuff to look forward to.
