- Dec 28 Wednesday Beryl's hedgehog uncurled totally drank some milk & walked about her attic. Dictionary . Much warmer; life much easier; wood much drier. 9 pages of Ghost , last chapter. Still resting ankle, still not smoking. At night tooth started aching (or rather the sciatic nerve under the dead right-lower molar) and I could not stay asleep: waking up with pain every ½ hour & coming downstairs to Laura's fire. Tried oil of cloves, borax & honey, iodine, syringing: finally tried the brass African charm – the headless lizard and it did the trick. Laura was anyhow staying up all night trying to get some Herod done. She did not go to bed at all.
