Sunshine today with occasional showers, but less frequent and intense, I slept awkwardly and woke up with a trapped nerve in my neck, which gave me all sorts of problems throughout the day - a numb cheek, poor balance and coordination. I couldn't work out how to untrap it. It wasn't painful, but left me feeling helpless and clumsy. I went for a walk after breakfast in an effort to loosen my back and shoulders, but it made little difference. I cooked sea bass for lunch and realised we were low on vegetables, so I went out again after we'd eaten and bought leeks and cabbage to see us through the next few days until our organic veg b. Clare sat out in the garden and enjoyed the sunshine. She's getting around the house carefully on crutches now, making progress as long as she rests and takes pain killers. I went out again and walked to prevent my back stiffening, no matter how much I move my shoulders, there's no change.
After supper we watched the last night of the proms. A loose cushion knocked over a glass full of wine. it spilled all over the carpet. Cleaning up the mess was a nightmare of physical effort in my un-coordinated state. It even affwcts the accuracy of my typing and writing takes much longer with many errors needing corrrection. I'm not looking forward to going to bed tonight.
