The bubble

Bored

Bored bored. Oh did I mention I'm bored!!!!!

Had a far better nights sleep in proper bed but still awake for three hours in the night - not sure if that's back discomfort or fibro playing up. Managed to alternate from lying on side to back then onto other side - all taking a couple of minutes to manoeuvre into position. Now that slow movement was due to back pain and twinges. But I'm quite used to hurting when fidgeting in bed. I must be getting better as my usual fibro pains are starting to be more dominant than the back pain.

Well I woke up at 11am - seriously cannot believe all this sleeping. I know I was awake in the night - but I'm always awake in the night anyway so that shouldn't effect me sleeping in more than usual. Must be the pain killers and pain concoction. Yawwwn.

Had a two hour walk up the high street 12 til 2 and back (could not be bothered to walk dogs today) reached the farthest point - before realising I'm a prat and although being mobile is the best cure - doing stupid distances unattended are very prat like and not conducive to a speedy recovery - why do I keep testing myself.

Well after waddling back like a duck with severe arthritis and sweating in a clammy I'm a prat kinda way I've made it home.

Oh and back to bed - by the way did I mention I'm bored.

VERY glad I had the foresight to stuff something in the slow cooker before I went out to test my pratness as I can't be bothered to get up again now to cook as I'm exhausted.

At least I have no guilt that husband will have a wholesome meal instead of eating crap now he's back in training. He racked up another 20 odd miles with stu today whilst I was out showing the high street what a stubborn prat I am. He will miss stu when he goes back to Americas cup in feb but Martin will be back from destination secret squirrel by then so he can be new training buddy. I will have to play a lot of catch up to be fit enough for this years nightrider.

Poor husband had had an extended break for us to enjoy together and I've spent 85% of it in bed! Still on the plus side at least he has complete control of the remote. I need to start making birthday plans to try and make up for this unfestive Christmas break.

I can't make out whether I'm feeling sick with hunger or sick with pain.

I know. I think I'll just sleep some more.

So friggin bored.

Woooooow how did I live without a slow cooker - have just been downstairs and had a right proper chicken casserole cooked to perfection with minimal effort. Thanks mom n dad - 70's retro christmas present cooking equipment rocks.

Now safely back in bed with a happy full belly.

Have had a few replies to husbands birthday drinks and all bar two of my fave peeps can attend so any extra will be a bonus. Hopefully will be fab for hubby as it can't have been fun looking after a miserable patient.

Hhhhmmm sleep (as I believe homer Simpson would say - I don't watch it so can't vouch for that). Think I have over filled the food pod.

Watching undateables Chanel 4. Heartbreaking and heartwarming rolled into one. Tissues at the ready.
