A tad windy….
The lodge shudders in the wind hitting it broadside. I ponder quite how windy it would need to be to actually make this thing move, and then wuss out and decide not to hang around to find out. Made from logs i would think that it weighed several more tonnes than it actually does, but as i bed down on the sofa in the house the noise of the wind is becomes distant and i retreat into the waiting arms of sleep.
The other thing keeping me awake at the moment is my cast. Not that my arm hurts as much as it did, only an ache made worse by me trying to do too much with my fingers reminds me of the cracked bone deep inside my wrist. What wakes me up is turning over and headbutting the cast. The other thing is it makes getting dressed an absolute nightmare. Try doing a bra strap up with only one useful thumb, or pulling your socks up. Doing anything else takes twice as long and ten times as frustrating. I feel bloody useless.
The most valuable thing in the world is now a 12 inch plastic ruler which reaches the itches i cant scratch.
I saw my first C-Section yesterday too, one of the ewes having problems giving birth was operated on and two healthy lambs were the result, although i dont think the ewe was too impressed with it all.
