Good morning all from a cloudy Glasgow, where it is currently 7 °C.
Yet another disturbed night, I have an RA flare up at the moment on top of everything else. My loathsome splints will need resurrected and they don't colour match, with my outfit. 😉I had forgotten how excrutiating the pain can be.
Two painkillers and a cuppa, brought by DH will set me right.
GM, thanks for the recipe, it looks delicious. I have printed it out and once I feel up to it, I will have a go.
Ash, I was fortunate to have a number of actual face to face appointments with a psychologist, as part of my cardiac rehabilitation, then Lockdown hit and the psychologists were re-deployed to, support NHS staff during the pandemic.
Initially, I was extremely reluctant to go, very angry and anxious, that my RA had damaged my heart and no intervention would help.
However, after agreeing, I found it helped me enormously to come to terms with the cards, I have been been dealt.
It did open a can of worms, regarding my mother, which had been festering for years, but was very cathartic.
I can understand the reluctance of people not wishing to talk, I couldn't have shared my anxiety in a group.
Yesterday, I eventually got going and popped to Sainsbury's for a few essentials.
An assistant approached me, two Christmas boxes of family biscuits in hand and asked if I was interested in them at 50p instead of £5! You bet I was.
A lady hovering beside me, asked if there were any more. The assistant directed her to the correct aisle, where she promptly cleared the shelves of all the reduced biscuits!! She must have had about twenty boxes in her trolley!!
I need to go and chase another missing prescription and the lens in DH's new glasses fell out, so that needs sorted.
Belated congratulations to Grannyfaraway.
I wish you all a pleasant day and a gentle one for those in the sick bay.
