Overtime was beckoning for tomorrow but I turned it down. I’ve had a sore thumb after cutting it at work a few weeks ago. This week it got very angry and swollen so I had to go to the doctors today after work. The result is that I have a bad infection in it and I have been given a course of antibiotics for the next week. It was Magz that forced me to go as I was for leaving it but she thought that it had to be seen to, the doc agreed with her. I think that is something us men are bad for after all who really likes going to the doctors? Not me for sure. The last time I had to visit them was over a year ago when I had a kidney infection. Again that was only because I was forced to by the wife, which was lucky as the doc then wanted to send me to hospital. This time it isn’t so bad though the thumb feels like it’s been slammed in a door at the moment. It being my right thumb has made it difficult me being right handed. Holding the pen to sign my name on the prescription was more of a task than usual and the result was unrecognisable. I’m glad that writing is easier thanks to modern technology. Though this weekend I have to do my SVQ work. That will be something as my hand writing is bad at best and going by my signature today it will be unreadable. I may put it off till next weekend depending how my appendage is. I do need to get it done though just in case the man turns up at work to see if it is finished so he can give us the next set of modules. Hopefully my painful digit will be a lot better by Sunday so I can get cracking on with the work.
