Wasn't feeling good yesterday. Thought the fuzzy head would have started to disappear. Spent yesterday morning on the sofa. We were all home for most of the day and it was so beautiful and sunny.

Felt pretty average today. And yesterday. Maybe a little worse today. Maybe not. Anyway I'm just tired and achy. So what did I do? Booked a massage for this afternoon! I had been given a gift voucher a little while ago so booked a back and shoulder massage. I thought my lower back was the most sor...
