quantumcupcakesWhat is it about the best laid plans?
Today was supposed to have included a second trip to see Aquaman and catching up on Dreamwidth.
Hah!
I have been hobbling around like an old woman today. We're ignoring the fact that turning 50 next week does actually qualify me as an old woman.
You see yesterday we went to Cardiff's Winter Wonderland and Lucy & I went ice-skating. We tried to cajole Jack into coming skating with us, I even tried to bribe him with offers of a good spanking, but as he quite rightly pointed out, it would be a bad idea with his back and knees. Also, he can't skate.
How have I known the man 21 years and not know that he's never been ice-skating?
Today my body has been protesting the hour spent on the ice - and a few falls included in that. I have a black and blue thigh, the leg I broke last summer has been aching and my back has been very stiff. This is a very new sensation for me and it's made me quite grumpy. There was a hot bath this morning, lots of cuddles on the couch and some painkillers have been taken.
I'm now in bed ready for an early night, one knee still aching and swollen (thinking I might have twisted it when I fell?), more painkillers taken

That was written at about 9pm last night. Ir appears I fell asleep before posting. It is about 4:15 am on Thursday, I've just been to the bathroom, picked my tablet up and found this still open
Notw to self: tag tomorrow

Date: 2018-12-24 06:04 pm (UTC)i have a friend from high school who ended up in Flagstaff, and she has much the same thing to say; it's ridiculously expensive these days. they bought their house 15 or so years ago so they're well-settled, but she is all the time saying the place ain't what it used to be. super cute town, though! and of course, those piney woods. <3
