Papageno was very surprised to see me at 3.00am! It is the first time I have seen him fast asleep in his basket. We put him in the bathroom at night time as he is such a pickle. However last night I was feeling very flu like with aching bones so I had a bath. He was very excited to be able to play with me in the night and happily went back in his basket when I left him. A combination of paracetamol and a bath seems to help. Day 6 today so hopefully my bones should start to feel better soon.

Early visit this morning to see GP for a check of my drugs and then coffee with a friend later. I need to paint my nails today as well as I forgot to ask Chloe to do it when she was here. That will be interesting with numb finger tips! This is to try and prevent my nails from falling off.

Yesterdays slow day was just what I needed. Feeling better for it today.
