We have always lived in the castle

And, going by past entries, we have always ached in December and see no reason to stop now. Both knees unhappy in the snow, lower back turned to plywood, hips being dear god why ow ow ow. Maybe a massage will clear some of this up when I'm able to get massaged again. Meanwhile I do my best with foam rollers, but it's a very poor best. OTOH yesterday as physio was gently kneading those very owie tendons or whatever on the inside of th knee, I asked why they hurt so much, and he said 'Because you've had surgery.' So maybe it's just a matter of time.

Did get out to sweep steps and path and shovel the bit of sidewalk my good Samaritan neighbour didn't get to. I had to walk like a penguin to do it, but still, I did it.
