Oct. 24th, 2016 10:33 amI woke this morning with a headache. I took Amerge, and that helped a little. A cold pack helped, too, but I wasn’t able to get back to sleep. I’ve eaten a bit and had a good bit of water and my morning tea.
My right hand is hurting a lot, so I’m wearing a brace which makes a lot of things difficult but helps with reminding me not to do things that will make it worse. I realized yesterday evening that I really needed the brace when my hand almost gave out while I was helping to clear the table at Scott’s parents’ house.
Scott and Cordelia got flu shots yesterday, and Scott finally got a shingles vaccination. I asked the pharmacist to see whether or not Aetna would cover it even though the woman I talked to in March said they wouldn’t cover it at a pharmacy, only at a clinic. Aetna approved the vaccination immediately and without a copay, so Scott got it done.
Scott is working his way through The Wheel of Time now. We’re getting the books on CD from the library. Book four in the series is huge— 34 discs. Scott is sufficiently hooked not to want to listen to other things between volumes. It’s been long enough since I read the part of the series that I read that I’m planning to listen to the books too. I’ve just got so very many audiobooks on my laptop at the moment, though, that finishing any of them seems daunting. Right now, I’m listening to The Wolves of Willoughby Chase which is a book I haven’t reread in at least twenty years.
We spent about three hours at Scott’s parents’ place last evening. Scott’s sister and her family arrived after we did because our niece had to work until 5:00. She was working at a local cider mill, so Scott joked about her working for the enemy. He actually had made the bottle that held the cider that our niece had brought with her. Our nephew wasn’t there. He was away on some sort of trip. His parents did tell us that the only step left for him to achieve Eagle Scout is his scoutmaster doing some paperwork.
