Mood

Joyless

I don't know what's going on, but my right hip has been causing me discomfort and pain for a good few months now. Today, I don't know, i must have sat awkwardly or something, but it's started causing me considerable pain. I can barely move without it killing me, I walk with a limp and standing still for longer than thirty seconds is nigh impossible - even sitting down hurts.

It's just getting on my nerves - my knees have been like this for years, but over the past year they started getting worse. Both my wrists are constatly twingeing with what I think to be RSI and recently my thumbs have started doing the same.

It's like I'm a test body for joint pains... it's annoying.

And heyfever has given me a migraine - my sneeze fits without heyfever are infamous.. add heyfever and they are ten times worse and ten times more often.

I wouldn't really mind if I had nothing pressing to do - but I'm in the middle of a pretty important commission at the moment and I don't have my easel. (Which probably wouldn't help anyway, as I can't stand up - but the oil paints are getting all over my clothes from having to rest the stretched canvas on my thighs)

I feel I'm going to go spare from the pain - apparently the cod liver oil I've started taking wont have an effect for at least two months, so I just have to live with it and perhaps buy some ibuleve.

I apologise to everyone who knows me, I've been out of sorts recently because I just hurt - pain makes me irritable.

But I must get this painting finished. I think I'm going to ave to go to the doctor and get myself checked out.
