So far this morning is my usual pain in my lower back, neck, arms, hands, knees, lower legs and feet. I'm absolutely shattered already and I've only been awake for an hour.
It was a nightmare to drag myself out of bed this morning and the stiffness didn't do anything to help either.
I'm itchy as well this morning for some reason, but that's pretty normal isn't it? It certainly is for me!
I've gotta remember to try and find or maybe invest in a new set of nail clippers 'cos my right big toe nail definitely needs to be cut!
The wobbliness is pretty good so far today and I've only wobbled into walls 9 times since coming downstairs on my bum. I wasn't counting how many times I wobbled when I was still upstairs 'cos I was concentrating on not literally falling down the stairs and risking breaking my glasses.
My sight is a nightmare this morning - everything is a blurred double so I've just gotta put up and shut up with that, just like everything else.
The unsteadiness is pretty good so far, so hopefully I won't slip over while I'm getting washed and dressed, probably alone again 'cos my carers are more interested in leaning against the kitchen cabinet or throwing the towel basket onto the floor so that they can sit on my perching stool or shower chair. A couple of them have complained that the perching stool is too small for them so I'll have to hit Amazon and find a bigger one for them and give the current one back to the physio.
My cotton wool head is pretty standard for me, so I hope today won't be too bad.
My first carer of the day could turn up at any point between 6.30am and 11am and I pay for them to stay for 30 minutes but they only have to stay for 18 to be paid, which is what the vast majority of them do, so I'd best publish this and get ready to answer the door.
Welcome to a day in my world.
