The three types of pain

What a difference a day makes! Wet, cold and windy today, in varying degrees! Made our usual trip down town for fresh fish, but took the car, partly as we had other things to buy and mostly as it was wet! The only good thing was that the water came back on some time after midnight - yet another BWM of which we  get several a year. 

I'd had enough of sitting at the computer so waterproofed up and went outside to bring up more glass for the glasshouse. Just three sheets, but it took me more than half an hour to clean them. Did you know, by the way, that there are three types of pain? Nociceptive pain, Neuropathic pain and Mixed pain. I have only one type of pain - a dirty pane!

So when it looks as if one side is clean, I turn it over and clean the other when it becomes obvious that the first side is still dirty! Had to turn them all four times before I was done. Still it made a Blip on a rough day! My extra is the glasshouse waiting for its glass. This is the only available flat place in the garden!
