well did think it a good idea to change syphon on toilet would not flush . did it when oh was home in case hands not strong enough, if going to be honest doubted my self as well which never happened before arther came along well with bit of effort did it hands hurt like merry hell after but was proud of my self (got oh to try to give it extra half turn ) but yesterday well feet, knees,hands arms and chest were aw full so glad was not at work we also had very heavy rain wed night and today back aching same with chest and rest why do normal activity's cause us so much pain. my head says you can do it body says you will suffer grrrrrrr val

Oh dear, in doing a good thing and proving your abilities you have caused yourself harm. Blasted arthritis, it's a beggur isn't it? Rest as much as you can today, valval, if your weather is like mine today that won't be helping matters either. We cannot allow this dross to dictate too much to us - to quote a certain Churchill 'We will never surrender.' And we won't. Look after yourself today, yes? DD

valval

thanks dd must admit did put it off till had to do it could have got oh to do it but that would be giving in and while i can i will when i can not i will rely on others (but wont like it) as you say we will not surender we will fight them on the beaches we will fight them in the air but arther we will fight every where.
was thinking why do they not make toilets at a better hight to repair for those of us on the stiff side lol even sodding feet were hurting if you belive that is better today not full to the top with pain meds stenum causing probs still making back ache with tensing up try not to but ou know how it is will get wheat pack on see if it helps and yes it throwing it down yuk val

Hi Val,

Sorry your feeling so much pain flower and well I max out on pain relief now a days.

I wonder if it might be better for you to take yours needed or not as it can have some residue effect though not exactly accumulator.

Hey big words before noon :shock:

I really hope you get a bit of relief from the pain, stererums especially hurt so much and well leaving you a ((((( )))))) and a better weather draft... i have been trying them but well you can't do your own and have only seen the sun 2x in almost 3 months Hopefully it will work better for you

Be kind to your elf but also well done for doing it. Cris xx

Val you make me laugh- you are so like my mum. She never let pain stop her either and fixed everything.
I don't think you will change as it is who you are but you do need to be careful Val as suffering after the event is no fun.

Take care
Elizabeth

Hi Val,
