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.

What do I enjoy doing? What gives me joy? Leave me a comment.

A Broadside: *plot spoiler* for Tory sympathisers

Today some alarming social equality data was released. It said what we all know: if you are poor, you have less opportunities in life. For every £100 a month less income than the median you start school one month behind developmentally. Your vocabulary aged 5 is half what it is for a rich kid if you are in the bottom ten percent of income. Housing tenure stats are even worse. "Only 4 per cent of those of working age living in social housing have degrees, and nearly half have no or only low qualifications. Only half of men and 42 per cent of women of working age living in social housing are in paid work, compared with 89 per cent of men and 81 per cent of women in households with a mortgage." Social housing: by its nature, is grouped (london people ignore this, you are the freaks not the norm). That means that we have allowed ghettoes of poverty and low attainment (not just in a SATS way either). Now it would be easy, and some daft Tory has already done it, to pin this on
