A visit to the osteopath

Jon didn't sleep very well as he, in his wisdom, decided not to take any painkillers as he was feeling better. Of course, he was feeling better because of the painkillers!!! He was up through the night to take some.

He went off to work but he really didn't look well.

I took Totty out for her walk and when I came back I called the osteopath and she said she could see me at 9.40 so off I went as my neck is just so painful.

She gave me a good massage and it did feel better . She has given me some exercises to do and said I should make sure I do them when I get off the plane in LA.

I went for a coffee on the way home and then got stuck into some housework when I got back.

Jon came home and looked bad so I told him to make sure he didn't work late as he is prone to do.

Alison called to say she could come over for a cup of tea which was nice as I was able to stop ironing. She told me she had a wheat bag I could borrow as the osteopath said heat might help. I wen back across with her to get it.

When I came back I called Joan who had left me a message on the answer phone. She just wanted to wish us a safe and happy trip. I put the wheat bag on and it did seem to help.

Jon came home early and just sat and had a cup of tea. I know the doctor said it would get worse before it gets better but I hope there will be a big improvement by tomorrow or he is not going to have a good trip.

We took the dog around the block for a quick walk.

I hadn't forgotten it was our anniversary today but I had forgotten to prepare a special dinner so we just had sticky chicken drumsticks - well it is 31 years and we are going out tomorrow night.

My neck really doesn't feel much better and i don't know what else I can do, Ibuprofen doesn't even touch it. Maybe a good night's sleep.

WEATHER
Hot and sunny 26 degrees
