Quite a wait, but not the worst given the clock going back. My only options for pain and nausea now is codeine and the oil I get on private prescription. I tend not to take these together but today needs must. I' m not too wobbly on my feet and my head is relatively clear which are other considerations. It is not something I would do if I was very unsteady or woozy.
The pain and nausea levels came down and I have been experiencing the rather pleasant 'side effects' of being a tad high but not addled.
It is quiet outside, the lamp post has stopped its jiggling. The leccy remained on for us. I hope it is back for the surrounding smaller villages. Not sure when the railways will be open, I think it is unlikely today.
Got through to all my other meds and am at that lovely stage when everything is kicking in and I have my coffee.
It's cloudy and still wet outside, so no star gazing this morning. Clear and dark skies are a winter pleasure. We don't have to go far for proper dark skies and I have been stalking a couple of places we could stay for 3 or 4 nights. It would have to be during a predicted cold and clear time, tie in with my schedule, be suitable for my needs, available and affordable. This is a very long shot holiday. One that I would be thrilled to have but not disappointed if I didn't,I am asking a lot.
I hope that you have a good day for you.
