Well, my energy appears to be returning from wherever it’s been hiding – albeit a little at a time. I’ve actually been at least a bit active today and I don’t feel absolutely shattered! That said my current definiton of active is somewhat less energy consuming than it was pre-op, and I did spend a good proportion of the morning asleep…..
But – I did go and help my dad move the mog about a bit – in preparation for it being taken away for restoration….which entertained me for a good hour or so.
And I went for a wander around the garden….the problem with winter is that if you’re in the wrong mood you get this terrible death and despair feeling – which with the stuff about my dad – well, it’s not good for my state of mind. But anyway…..
So, this evening I finally went through and did my e-mails – and found that – I guess unsuprisingly – the RSI is still there. I could just feel it when I stopped….. *sigh*. I’m not entirely sure what to do with my life – I’d always kinda presumed, well, for a long time I’d presumed that it’d be computer related – but not being able to type….well, that’s kinda screwed that up. I’m not really sure what else I can do, and that scares me slightly. I get the feeling that the shop idea is off. I don’t really know if I should bring up the subject atm….ah well, I guess I’m back to the old “Go with the flow” advice :-)
Oh, and…..I’ve got more elastica winging it’s way to me…..the sessions album….*grin*

Between them, Betadine and Kotex must be having a field day! Betadine gel, Betadine pessaries, Betadine douche…..and more Kotex than you can imagine. Incidentally, the Betadine pessary’s applicator is frigging hopeless….
And I’ve got another 7 weeks of this! Well, 5 weeks of this plus a couple of weeks of this plus work (but by then I should actually be moderately healthy again (although it implies that healing takes about 4 months)…..
When I can actually decide when I want to go to the loo, that’ll be a good day……
Hrm, it’s lonely in this bed…..missing human touch….. :-(
