… or maybe even more since I last had a bath.<\/p>\n
But this afternoon I took the plunge, as it were, and it was delicious.<\/p>\n
Yet another difficult night and I was awake by 01:35. At 04:30 I was up and about and having my medication and by the time that the alarms went off I was ready for breakfast.<\/p>\n
This morning, trying my best to find some concentration, I finished off transcribing the notes for Canada 2017 at long last, followed by making the photo templates for the rest of the summer.<\/p>\n
That took me until lunchtime.<\/p>\n
After lunch, I ran a deep hot bath, lowered myself in and then slowly added a half-cup of salt. And then I lay in it for well over an hour.<\/p>\n
All of my wounds have cleared up, the swelling has subsided and the bright red colour has now changed to a more medium red. and for an hour or two I could move around quite happily.<\/p>\n
Even now, it’s much freer than it was before.<\/p>\n
But I can see a deep hole in the knee where it is weeping. It looks as if a large piece of gravel was embedded in it, and that is what has caused all of the problems.<\/p>\n
I’ve no idea if it’s still there, but I’ll go for another hour or so in a slat-water bath tomorrow and see if that helps.<\/p>\n
For Friday I’ve arranged an appointment with the doctor, and as Liz can’t take me, I’ve asked Brigitte if she would.<\/p>\n
For a change I’ve done a little tidying up today, and I’ve also made some tea for the first time for a while. A baked potato and beans, so nothing exciting. But it’s a start.<\/p>\n
and I managed to keep out of bed until about 17:30 before succumbing to sleep.<\/p>\n
So I’m ready for a good night’s sleep. I’m intrigued now to see how I’ll be feeling in the morning.<\/p>\n
