I have the idea that I should rename my blog, something along the lines of "read this and be depressed" or "Moaning Myrtles Place" or something similar.

Yes, today is yet another moan and groan.

I don't know what I have done to my shoulder but it hurts like heck. It starts at the point where neck meets shoulder, and travels down my back to the middle, and all down my arm to my elbow, which feels like I have bashed the funny bone. So, I think I have a trapped nerve in my neck. Also, it is a little swollen. Maybe because I keep rubbing it all the time to try and loosen it up.

I also have a ear infection (or the other side), which really hurts and feels like I have a balloon in my ear canal.

And a sore throat.

I hardly slept last night for the pain, but when I woke this morning, I was feeling better. Unfortunately, bad planning left me with no potatoes, so I nipped to the shop. Big mistake. My shoulder and arm/back started throbbing again, and I was actually feeling sick.

It is so sore now that I have finally given in and taken some painkillers. I hate these because they knock me out, but needs must.

best regards
Moaning Myrtle
