Long time gone
Hello again,
I have not been in the mood to stop and write for quite a while. I have finally gotten out of the cast and out of the boot which were supporting my broken ankle (evulsion fracture). And I have had three PT appointments and my ankle is healing fairly well. I am still not supposed to be doing a lot of walking and swimming laps is still out. Both of these being missing in my world have caused me to gain 15 lbs since the ankle break. I am VERY fluffy now! YUCK!
I am sure that once I can swim again I will be able to drop the weight but it is frustrating none the less.
I have even been delinquent in my duties to the PVNS organization that we are starting. Although with school starting everyone else has been preoccupied also. I will be getting back to it this week while I am on vacation!
Speaking of vacation I booked the last two weeks of September as vacation time. . . even though I was not planning a trip I have all this time I must use up. So I completely forgot and booked work for Monday and Tuesday this past week which ended up causing me to work the entire week. I was so frustrated and upset on Thursday that I was in tears at a hospital where I was working. This is never good. But climbing up and down from the floor was hurting my hip and the boards I got from the factory did not work for the second day in a row and I had a melt down.
Thankfully the set of boards that I got on Friday worked and I was able to get the Anesthesia machine calibrated and tested and in working order. I told the office that I was turning off the phone and running away this week. I called a friend from Toronto to see about going for a visit but I don't think that will work.
I am dog sitting a 120 lb Bull Mastiff for a friend who is in the nursing home doing rehab after having had her neck fused. When I was leaving the hospital yesterday my younger son who is staying at my house to help care for the dog, texted to tell me that he (the dog) was being bad. I later learned that the dog had gotten in to his (Dan's) back pack and eaten something. Well at midnight I learned that the dumb animal ate several packs of food...packaging and all. All of which he puked on the floors of my house. So at 1 AM I was dashing to Walmart to get a carpet cleaner machine. Damn dog!
So with a stupid beast in the house and a son who doesn't think it is a big deal that the dog ate this stuff I can't leave the two alone in my house for a few days!
UGH! Calgon take me away!!!
