Lock-down Day 630

Bad night. A lot of pain, I couldn't sleep. Last time I checked it was past one ...

I woke to the alarm - no power! Mippies let me sleep, though. I finally got up around eight. Power was back.

No Internet, so I can't check whether the outage was load shedding. And I can't access my blog  ... nothing.

I'm also in a lot of pain. Can't eat, can't drink, can't even smoke. I shan't be taking pain killers, though. Don't need to over do that, not when there's an alternative.

The alternative is simply staying in bed. Not moving, as movement starts the pain. It's not as bad as yesterday, but it's still bad.

Mippies come for cuddles. Settling down next to me. I'm practically never alone, yet no mewling, no mipping, just quiet cuddles and snuggles. Even Mewthos! Mostly Janey, and Mini, though.

Yes, I've had coffee, yes, I've eaten, and yes, I've smoked. Painful, yes, but bearable. Barely, but still. I don't have the energy to make real food, so I'm eating cheese and I have bananas. That'll do for today.

I'm not doing completely without pain killers, though. Sometimes it just gets too bad. But mostly, I'm spending the day in bed, binge watching Supernatural.

Half past one, finally internet! Not much, just enough to check that there's no load shedding, and to copy and past what I've written into my blog. Thanks to my friend!
