But it’s sure a pain in the ass.

The large lateral incision site on my ankle hasn’t fully closed.  It started bleeding this weekend, a very small amount, but being seven weeks post-surgery it shouldn’t be bleeding at all.  I went to the docs to have it checked out and they put a super-duper silver dressing on it and I’m not to get it wet (which means I’m back to sponge bathing – ugh!).  I also have to put off my physical therapy a mininum of three week and until I get the clear from the doc.  *sighs*  I’m not sure which I’m more bummed about.  I was really enjoying taking showers again.  He did say I was clear to go crutchless as soon as I felt able.  (That made me feel better about the crutch-free puttering I’ve been doing while organizing the home office.)

Work tomorrow and most likely the rest of the week.  Women’s group again Thursday night (and yes, I’m going).  Halloween on Friday (zombie cheerleader girl and all). Hunt Races Saturday (including Jack Russel Races) with barbecue at our house afterwards and then Sunday I’m torn between a birthday party and Amos Lee coming to the Paramount.  I’ll probably let my wallet make that decision but I may be too worn out for either. Getting my marriage and life back to happily is taking up all my free time!  Not that I’m complaining…this is all very good stuff.

(What to do when you get to the bottom of the barrell….)
