[Magdalen] Oy! My knee.

[Marion Thompson]

I have some of those medical aids --- in a box --- somewhere --- from 
before when nobody had diagnosed my trouble as  I.T. band tightness.  
Mercifully, as the day has passed, it has eased.  I remember the physio 
lady with great fondness, she of the noodle, the hot bandages, and, most 
of all, the electricity zapping the troubled area.   I skipped out after 
that first session like a spring lamb! Miraculous!

We're having a rainy day here and wouldn't you know?  After the first 
major deluge, I realised that both car window and sun roof were wide 
open, thanks to yesterday's great mugginess.  Aaargh. Bound to happen 
sooner or later.  After today the rain can stop so that I can get on 
with staining the lovely new shed on Saturday!

Everything is actually going amazingly well, and I am a Very happy 
camper -- except for the still-unconnected gas stove!  Off to phone 
Sears yet again, because I still have not heard from the Kenmore people.
