Falls

Yesterday I woke early, so showered, dressed and collected up all my dark wash – which was all I had left to do – thank you TBSITW. Got down to laundry room to find two of the three machines already in use but luckily one was free on which I could set a wool wash with a reduced temperature of 30 degrees as per instructions.

Later, when this wash was finished I transferred most of it into a usual tumble dryer and the fleece into one with a low temperature setting which was required. All over and done with before eleven o’clock. Result!

After that I had a lazy day, then off to bed early.

This morning I awakened at a reasonable time and stood on the bathroom scales – to get my balance here I hold on to the top of the chest of drawers and let go only when I feel safe.

I then took a step back and lost my balance, so that’s another fall! At least this time I remember exactly what happened.

I have hurt my coccyx, my right elbow, my right shoulder and the top of my back as well.

Today elder son, his wife and their two children came and, after exchanging Christmas presents, they took me to Dobbies for lunch. (I really should have learned a lesson – the macaroni and chips had no salt and approximately no cheddar) However I enjoyed the company and being taken round by daughter in law.

I am still sore, so couldn’t have managed on foot.

After they left I telephoned to make an appointment at the surgery:

TUESDAY, 6TH JANUARY!!!!!!!!

Met up with the Scrabble ladies and enjoyed my cup of tea before returning home.
