My daughters fingers and toes have swollen in the past during the colder months. She has been taken to the hospital and tests have been done but they were not able to work out what was the matter.
Her toe had swollen recently and I just assumed it was that. But when the swelling did not go down and it was hurting her I took her to the doctors. The appointment was this morning. She must have hit it at some point badly. While there is still bruising the toe is thankfully not broken and the swelling is now going down. Hopefully it will be the start of her getting better now.
Her fingers and toes do not seem to then be reacting as badly to the colder weather than other years. Hopefully her sensitivity to the colder weather is getting better as she gets older. This is a good thing as I would like to move to Canada.
Thankfully as the doctor was on time I was able to take her to nursery after and I was able to go home and sit and have a cup of tea in peace before I had to collect them.
The afternoon was eventful. My sort of father in law came around to fix the radiator that had come off the wall. He did that without a problem and I thought that was the problem fixed.
It was until I came to wash the dishes later. The water was not working properly as it normally does (the landlord will not fix it) so I turned up the pressure like how he told us to do. The water worked for a short while before it cut out. It would not work again.
I was then called into the living room to find a pool of water coming from the radiator.
We have had to call out a plumber out to get it fixed as the heating will not work until it has been fixed. Hopefully it will not cost too much. Thankfully not only is it not that cold but we are not used to having the place over heated (My step daughter finds our home cold because her home is like a furnace)
