Today has been without
a doubt one of the worst I can remember,it began last night and has
continued unabated throughout the day. My son, exhausted from a night
of chain flushing, spent the day I bed. Pa ,who was supposed to
collect for me an urgently needed and long overdue
prescription,faffed about so much that although he managed,eventually
to collect the prescription from the surgery it was too late to have
it made up at the only pharmacy in the area who carries the required
drug. He compounded the felony by seeming surprised that I was upset
about this. He can be such a twerp!
This means another
night of agony for me!
Left alone to cope with
the days chores I managed to complete the work of three people, make
bread and cooked dinner during which time I only fell over twice and
dropped a heavy maslin pan on my head once, so as you see I did quite
well.
As I dried the last
dinner plate a knock at the door cause my heart to sink, sure enough
a friend, who under normal circumstances I would be glad to see
,stood smiling cheerily in the door way,I could have wept. Luckily on
observing the dire state of the occupants health he curtailed his
visit and practically fled off down the garden path.
What I really need is
rest,my doctor says so, my consultants repeat the litany....it would
be something if these geniuses could tell me how, given the
circumstances I can find even a couple of hours a week to sit with my
feet up.....the chance would be a fine thing.
