Diagnosis Belly!

Close followers of life of Jude will know that I have been chasing down the origins of some pretty bad abdominal pain in the last few months! Well I am pleased to announce that we now have a diagnosis..

I have a sore muscle. Its a big one (the psoas major), which is linked to your spine and leg.. Its the muscle thats supposed to lift your leg to do stairs and stuff. And its given up working. It comes from having one leg longer than the other and driving lots and all that... (pulls pelvis out of line and overworks muscle or something!) And can be fixed by doing core strength exercises.. Pilates here I come..

So I start spine rehab tomorrow.. should be fixed in no time!

Yey!

Remembering What I Enjoy..

Occasionally I forget things. Some stuff like birthdays, names and stuff is a normal human thing, and I don't sweat it so much. But I also forget some other stuff which is not so good. I forget what I enjoy. I don't know how it happens but it does from time to time. And its at these moments that I need a bit of help remembering. So- this is a request for help. What do I enjoy doing? What gives me joy? Leave me a comment.

Who will rid me of this meddlesome...

... piano? It occurred to me yesterday as i nursed ANOTHER bruise on my arm.. that I have had a piano sat in my hallway for 2 months! It seemed like such a good idea at the time but apparently is not... its stuck there and everytime I walk down my hall I have to squeeze past the darn thing- often not successfully! A number of options lie before me: -chop the thing into several hundred pieces -find lots of people who want to move it.. to where I'm not sure -sell it -give it away -pray it away It goes next weekend.. even if it kills me... which it might.. hummm
