Old Person injury

My shoulder hurt so much last night I couldn't sleep and ibuprofen is doing nothing for it.

Which means.

I have to wake up early tomorrow and run the gauntlet of trying to get a GP appointment.

(well at least I'll probably be awake early anyway!!!)

This is a real Old Person injury: I have no idea what I've done to hurt it, how can it be this bad???

“come here” she said “i’ll teach you   

a poem: i see the moon

               the moon sees me

               god bless the moon

               and god bless me”   

i taught it to my son

who recited it for her

just to say we must learn   

to bear the pleasures

as we have borne the pains
