I think i've lost it compleetly. I bumped into bedrock yesterday on the way out of physio, we swapped stories about the NHS and do you know what? I totally forgot to wish him a Happy Birthday!!! :O He was feeling so down too! I feel so selfishly awful. Thing is aswell, I had his birthday card and presents here ready since last week, I can't believe I forgot! It must be all these tablets i'm taking, they're making my mind mushy! I'll have to pop over to see him tonight after work, if he'll let me in; he'll probably never want to talk to me again for that. :(

I had the dressing changed on my war wound yesterday. I was expecting to see a 5 inch gash lined with stitches, but to my suprise there wasn't! Instead I had 5 1 inch gashes all over my knee, I have no idea where the logic in that was, but I guess there's less chance of infection this way. Tell you what though, it's been hurting like a mother betsy today, but not in the cut wounds as you might expect - it's deep inside the knee. I was told to take asprin for 6 months to prevent clots which i'm doing, also, the physio told me to stretch out my calf muscle more because all the blood and crap that goes with the surgery still needs to come out of the calf muscle - it's sooo stiff! if you were to look at my ankle you'd think i've broken it. Some of the blood has been gravity fed to my foot and turned it black and blue, the physio said it was normal which I was glad about because for a minute I thought they must have dropped me off the bed when I was out cold haha! ~~~~

Today I've been ploding about in the peace and quiet,
I carried on putting a few more decorations up for Christmas. I'm expecting the Gas Engineer to call to put a new PCB board in my central heating boiler. You see, The heating broke down again on friday, we've been cold right through to the bones; Yet, by a stroke of luck, the heating switched it'self back on last night so we're all nice and toasty again. I don't know how long for though, I hope I haven't missed that engineer when I was hoovering. I'd better give them a ring to see.
