Bah humbug

As soon as one problem is resolved, another one crops up. Sods Law. In this instance, my left knee is now fully functional and happy to bend any way I choose; my right knee is swollen up like a purple balloon with nice scratches adorning it. Guess who fell over... something... this evening? I have no idea what it was, nothing was there after I picked myself up, but there was definitely something that tripped me. A cat? But there was no noise.... Dave is speculating about hedgehog assassins. I hate walking home in the dark.

To add insult to injury, I also landed on my hands which I'd just been to the doctor's about, so now those are even more sore. 2005 looks to be a year of aches and pains. I'm not very happy about this. Incidentally, the hands aren't presenting as a classic case of either rheumatoid or osteoarthritis, nor are they presenting as RSI as the pain is all over. The tendons in my wrists aren't crunchy either, so probably not tendonitis. And they also get sore when I do anything which is quite frankly ridiculous.

Oh, and I can't take anything stronger than paracetemol in case I'm pregnant *rolls eyes* Do I have any straight paracetemol? Like hell I do. Even asprin is bad these days apparently. And whilst codeine won't affect a baby before the third trimester, my lovely doctor doesn't want me to take that either. I think I'll take up meditation. Or, find the person who's made a voodoo doll of me....

Try lavender stuff, creams and what have you for the scrapes. And some lavender oil for the bath - and no, it won't do you any harm if you're pregnant. Lavender is great stuff. One of the few essential oils that's safe enough to use undiluted. (Yes, I know, I don't act like someone into aromatherapy but bite me, okay? My husband happens to be a qualified aromatherapist. *Groan*)

I agree with Dave about the hedgehogs, sneaky little bastards. Anything that disgusting is bound to be at fault.

Um. Apparently in a shitty mood this morning sooooo...I'll wish you well and get out of here! *Smooch*

Hrm. I think I have some lavendar oil... somewhere. Will have to go and look for it. I'm intriegued by Slay being an aromatherapist, does he practice at all? (And why shouldn't you be into aromatherapy?)

Thanks Andy *smooch* Hope you get some sleep!
