Housely Renovations - First report

posted by [personal profile] panik at 10:07am on 09/08/2008 under , , ,
And nothing is being done! ::cue manic laugh::

Man.

Yesterday, as we left Dad's house and I was carrying a brace of heavy bags out to the car, something - some bloody bastard of a thing - went in my left side, around my bottom-most ribs. It wasn't too bad. I thought it would get better. It didn't. It got worse, so by evening I was in quite serious pain that I dulled with wine till bedtime, but I've had a horrible night and am in worse pain than ever and...

Shit.

This has put a serious cramp in  my plans I have to say. Mark's busy, moving boxes to the loft and shifting the heavy furniture around up there. He's going to do the stretchy stuff and paint the skirting and coving, I'm going to rest my aching, aged self for an hour or so then attempt  the plaster-skim in the spare. Then I can touch up the ragging in the bedroom. Luckily today's schedule was pretty light anyway but dammit!

I was going to go for a swim today, too. And the weather's vile.

But the reviews for Hamlet are great (cheers up momentarily)! And James May's been filming a new Big Gay Wine Tour with Oz! There is light in the world, children, if we but seek for the cracks in the gloom. ::laughs like proverbial drain::

OK. Back to m'coffee and the gloom...

"something - some bloody bastard of a thing - went in my left side."

Ouch! Sounds very painful. Try to rest it as much as possible so you can
enjoy Hamlet.

Hope you feel better soon.

*Sends healing vibes*

Ow! Sorry you're in so much pain - I hope it improves quickly for you.

How exciting that you're going to see Hamlet! When?
And if it's before October, don't tire them out too much!

Hope you're doing better today

Ah. In which case, I'll try not to tire them out!

Take it easy and don't do too much (says she who always does and regrets it later).
