The 12th & 13th; Probably vascular.

The 12th of September. Today has been fairly acceptable, pain-wise. I had to bend over this morning which my back didn't like, and I've had the occasional twinge, but moving has been much easier. I had a longer sleep, which I think helped too. 

Quiet day for me; this morning, I wrote up a blog post, and tried on two dresses that I had ordered. Keeping one, sending the other back. Chatted with the kittens. I think bribery is working on Hugo, as he's not running away from me quite so much. 

After lunch, I perused some crochet patterns and did some experimenting with different sized hooks, eventually deciding to just make a scarf/snood with some wool I bought to get free delivery on an order. I watched some Bones, then went to sit and give Hugo treats while I stroked him. He's getting better at it. Even Harvey wanted to come and join us watching Buffy, although he doesn't care about Dreamies. 

The 13th of September. 

Well it's been a rather productive day. I saw Anne Dancey this morning about my arm. I explained my situation, and my history, and she examined me. She was pleased to hear that Andrew is organising this nuclear medicine test, as she would do something similar, and would like to see the results when they come through. Let's hope the appointment materialises soon. She thinks it is probably vascular, but that a proper compression garment and seeing specialist nurses will help me, so it's handy that I've got St. Giles (who are the same team she uses anyway) next week. If I do need lipo, she will provide it, but I have several other avenues to try first. 

We popped into town before going home, to take back two of the three coats I'd ordered from Zara, then had to get straight back home so Mommy could get to Grandma's for 12. 

This afternoon is used up a second ball of wool on the scarf, so that'll be done by the weekend, and I had a bit more Hugo petting time while listening to PM. I think we're making progress. Henrietta, not so much.
