meniscus



my meniscus is torn. went to the physical therapist. was given exercises to do. four of them. and given a time-line. goal: to be off crutches in 5 days. back to work in 7. and driving: when the pain dictates that I can tolerate it.

adriano and the pt had lots in common. I was whingey (of course I was) and preferred a wheel chair to the crutches from one building to the next. and there was a street in-between too. just to give you, dear reader, the complete picture. both of them pooh-poohed me wanting the chair. pfftt!

a darling friend lent a space heater. undarling flat-mate wouldn't go to pick it up yesterday afternoon. pfft! and furthermore he knew about the heat going awry in this casa LAST YEAR. wtf? get it done. face it. stare it down. do something about it.

two highlights from yesterday. Pan's Labryinth. LOVED it! and taking a bath. a hot hot hot bath. I cleaned the tub first. amazing accomplishment. and then filled the tub. which takes forever. and then told everyone to use the facilities because I am not about to get out. only if the water got cold. that's it. I felt brilliant getting in and getting out without any assistance. heaven. heaven is a bath. water. mmmmmmm. life is good. and then before sleep I took another one. and guess what I'm going to do now? oh yes. you've guessed it.
