The 13th & 14th; Distraction from life garbage.

The 13th of November. Sleep was not actually that bad, although I did wake up so cold, I had to drag my blanket over myself. I have the double thickness duvet on my bed now for winter, so hopefully tonight I'll be toasty.

This morning, I went out with Mommy to do some shopping errands. First, we went to Aldi, because they have some decent crackers (Christmas, not Jacob's) and are selling a cheap version of wool I like. Next, M&S for a pretzel and chewing gum (this was really just a bonus rather than a necessary trip), then we went to Boots so I could get a body brush to try to help my skin, circulation and lymphatic system.

After lunch, I have been sat with the crochet. My back hurts more than usual today - it's like I'm having a delayed reaction to all the driving on Saturday. Every time I get up, I groan, like I am ancient. So I've sat watching The Blacklist, and just had to undo and redo an entire section of crochet because I wasn't paying enough attention.

The 14th of November.

I forgot how heavy the double duvet is. Took me ages to get comfortable underneath the weight. It's super warm though.

Today has not involved a great deal of excitement. This morning I used my new body brush thing and all the unsupported sitting made my back unbearably painful, so much so that I couldn't finish moisturising afterwards, and I had to get Mommy to help do my legs. I'm not sure it's ever been so bad that I couldn't do what I needed to. Found out today that Dr. Antrobus has actually left (not ideal), but he had written my letter before he did, so it can get sent on to Dr. Blaney who can do the bloody steroid injections!

Afternoon was more of the usual - Bones, The Blacklist, crochet. Made another irritating mistake by being distracted. Nearly finished this project now - might get the last bits done tomorrow, but I'm seeing Vicky for sick person chats so we'll see.

I am seeing Joe at The Glee tonight, which is going to be much fun. Distraction from life garbage.
