Sunday, 23 November 2014

I slept well last night, got up early, and set out for a long walk. But as I was coming up the sidewalk in the green strip, I tripped on some small irregularity in the pavement and fell. This caused minor abrasions on my knee and arm, some pain in my left wrist, and quite intense pain in my shoulders, although I don't think it actually re-injured the right shoulder. I tried to continue walking, but aborted somewhat short of the distance I had intended because of the pain. When I got home, I took pain medicine (optalgin), of course, but the pain was strong whether I sat at my desk, sat in my comfortable living room chair, or lay in bed. Finally, the medicine began to work, and I felt better. But I've continued to have some pain all day and have felt quite tired.

In the morning, I ran several errands, including a trip to the optometrist to complain about my new glasses (he convinced me to keep trying them for one more week) and the weekly grocery shopping at Shufersal.

We really didn't eat a regular lunch today at all -- just random food at home.

In the late afternoon, we went to the dentist at Maccabi to see what they could do about David's teeth. But since the problems are all with the plates (not his actual real teeth), they referred us to a dental technician, whom we haven't yet called. After that, we drove over to Breishit (the health-food store) and bought some dried beans.
