Things went to shit last night. Stress, I reckon. Cleaning up after dinner, I sliced my right pointing finger open. Not sliced, really. The tip of a very sharp kitchen knife cut small and deep. I had the devil of a time getting it to stop bleeding. I used a styptic pencil for a long time, and finally wrapped it tightly in a bandaid. I went back to the kitchen to take out the garbage. Coming back into the house, I closed the same finger in the door. Hard. The nail went blue right away and did not stop throbbing all night .
But it got worse. Woke up with a terrible pain in my gut. Wouldn't let up. I finally realized it was probably diverticulitis. I didn't get an hour's sleep all night long.
The pain has lessened but it is still there nagging me. I can't sleep. I can't stay awake. It is going to be a miserable day.
