Thoughts for the day so far.

Well, I have been out of bed for about an hour now. Shocking really, considering it is now after 3pm. I have no excuse for this, because I was asleep well before midnight last night.

This morning my daughter came in to say good morning. She usually cuddles up next to me, but this morning she jumped on top of me and was rather boisterous. Funnily enough, now I can hardly move. Initially I thought I would just lay still and not move and get rid of the pain, then it would all be good.

This didn’t work, so I asked my partner to give me a massage around my hip area. After two minutes of this (and he is so very gentle that even a mouse wouldn’t mind him massaging them) I thought the pain was going to make my head explode so I told him to stop.

Finally, I decided to get up and walk it out. I made a very important discovery. My hip joint is slightly askew, and every time I put weight on my leg I can feel the joint grinding and quite a sharp, nasty pain.

Although this  is not new for me, every time it happens, I can never remember how to pop it back into place. I should actually learn to pay more attention to Shortland Street when they are popping people’s bones back into place.

Any suggestions that will not land me in hospital, or intensify the pain would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.
