    She’s very moody and being difficult about taking painkillers.
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    No, apparently she was told to ‘take them if she needs them’. Me pointing out I know how to manage painkillers fell on deaf *ahem* ears

    I s'pose they are erring on the side of caution when it comes to taking painkillers, I think I'd take them regularly though.

    Hope Jess is less grumpy and a bit brighter today.

    She’s voluntarily taking the painkillers now so I think the anaesthetic has worn off. She described it as ‘throbbing right the way inside her ear’ which does not sound pleasant. We’re supposed to clean around the stitches but she really doesn’t want me anywhere near them so I’m leaving it for now - she’s on antibiotics so she shouldn’t get an infection.

    Poor thing! Could you get a practise nurse to take a look and talk about cleaning it?

    I’ll try again tomorrow, she’s a sensible lass so she’ll get her head round it.

    In different news, I’m now an official trustee for the Basingstoke & District Disability Forum

    In yet more news, I had my dvla Opticians appointment. I passed with flying colours and they’ll let dvla know I’m cleared to drive (optically).
