Today was a typical rest day - chores. Actually there weren’t that many today. Just some shopping in the morning and then I made a big batch of chili. I really do mean a big batch of chili. I froze 11 servings earlier (just bagged them up now), put 11 more in, and probably have another 5 to go. These are single servings though (could be worse, could be doubles). Did a little in the garden, but not much. We’re having company (family) on Sunday so I’ll leave the clean-up until closer to the time.

The only real negative point is some wrist/hand pain I developed in the late afternoon. I’m not sure where it came from, or what caused it. It was fine this morning when chopping the veg and stirring the chili. I felt it a big when having a swim in the late afternoon, however, it really wasn’t bad. Tonight when I was ladling the chili into the bowls to freeze it suddenly got worse. We’re talking about 8oz of chili in a ladle, so it wasn’t a weight thing. I put some ice on it so we’ll see how it feels in the morning. I’m slightly aware of it when typing, but only a little. I really hate things that appear out of nowhere, especially this with the right wrist. It’s usually the left one that is a bit dodgy. And even if I feel it’s not good enough to lift… what do I do with a dominant hand I’m trying to rest? Sigh, I’m getting ahead of myself as it will probably be fine by morning.
