The 7th & 8th; Stupid spine.
The 7th of August. Still some pain today, but not quite as much. I had a decent enough sleep, but I'm still tired too. Too much activity for me for one day; my body is taking its time to recover. I've got very little on this week, just respiratory clinic and we're back down to London this Saturday to do it all again. I will, at least, not have a gig to go to, so I can just rest when we get home.
I spent most of my day working on blog posts, typing up the 3rd to the 6th, then uploading all the photos and culling the shit ones. Got to decide if I take my camera again this week, or if I take a different lens. We're sitting in a different place so I need to work out what we'll be able to see.
I think I finished about half two, then I made two more squares of blanket while watching some more Glow. I'll have to lay them out to work out how many I'm going to have to do.
Tomorrow, I think I'll stop the pregablin. A week of the double dose has done nothing but make me sleepy, burpy and hungry. The hunger is fucking me up because part of anorexia recovery is learning to feed yourself when you're hungry, but now I'm having to ignore the hunger, tell myself it's just the drug, and it's so confusing.
The 8th of August.
Back to pretty much normal levels of pain today. I've binned off the pregablin because it has done fuck all for two weeks. I'll be going back to see Dr. Blaney and we'll discuss steroid injections. Stupid spine.
Today has just been crocheting squares for the blanket. I did two or three this morning, in between visits to the kitchen to check on baking progress, because we made chocolate, ginger and sesame cookies and chocolate cupcakes with coffee frosting filling.
After lunch, had a quick hairwash (very little colour is left in my hair now), then Mommy went to Grandma's and I got back to crocheting. I've now got sixteen squares and I watched all the daytime crime dramas Sky Living has to offer. I think I'll do four more and see how it looks. I don't want the baby to grow out of it straight away!
