Tuesday 31st January

Horrible night last night....I woke up at four this morning and realised that something that I'd eaten last night for supper had made my bottom lip swell up again, it was most uncomfortable and really painful.  I found the antihistamine tablets out, tried to wash one down with water and got more down my front than in my mouth so resorted to a bottle which made it worse.  Eventually I managed to swallow the tablet so went straight back to bed, there was nothing else to be done.  Woke up the second time around seven thirty, head down again and eventually it was nine thirty when I woke.  I inspected the damage, a lot of the swelling had gone down but the chin area was very numb and I didn't look or feel good so I cancelled my student for this afternoon.  I didn't want to frighten him and really I didn't feel like going, an afternoon in front of the fire was more fitting with my mood.

I didn't bother with breakfast, the precautions I'd made by getting in logs wasn't really necessary.  The snow that was supposed to fall must have fallen somewhere else, we had no sign of it.  It was still minus three at nine this morning but it warmed up quickly to just on the minus, I'd lit the fire at four this morning so it was gently going and very comfortable in the house.  Eventually a pale watery sun came out, not much warmth in it and when I went to walk the garden for a little exercise, the air was still chilly.  I did top up the house log basket though and get one more filled log carrier into the porch just for good measure.  I took another antihistamine around three this afternoon for good measure and it seems that the swelling has gone down but the inside of my bottom lip is still sore.  On my stroll round the garden I noticed some seed pods hanging near the wisteria and I looked them up in my book and it's something I never knew....wisteria have seed pods.  I brought one into the house with me, soaked it, opened it up and I had one big one and one very small seed and now I've followed the instructions in the book to see if I can get one to germinate....and then I'll try the others.

Had a little sleep this afternoon, came to and put fish fingers and chippies into the air fryer and that was supper.  I buttered some bread and tipped the contents of the air fryer on top of it and munched through the lot.  I should sleep well tonight, I fully tummy deserves rest.  Conversations with my daughter and grandson tonight as a catch-up....I'm well blessed.  LN.....Soon be time for bed....it's going to be another lazy day tomorrow...I can feel it in my water.....LN
