1. I got to see my new foot today. All I keep thinking is, that isn't my foot. The toes are too straight, the arch is normal, and there is no odd lump on the top. Apparently this is normal. They offered to prescribe theapy if I need help with the "identity" and "body imaging". I think I'm good. If I can get used to new boobs, I can get used to seeing a new foot. Swelling is down and m foot is healing very well. Doc says that I am doing everything correctly and that all patients should be this "good".
2. New drug added to the cocktail to help me sleep at night. Doc says vivid dreams and lack of sleep are common with this narcotic "which is as mild as we like to give". Apparently this is not the drug of choice for them, but I'm special.
3. I have indeed finally started argent_tyger's cuff. It is inked and in the hoop and everything.
4. I have slogged through every email that has come in on the EK list over the last 3 days. I am wondering if in between all the ranting/raving/discussing if anyone actually saw my post about looking for an EK dep sys admin.
5. I survived going outside in the snow, ice and slush. Woot.
6. I am learning new skills every day (you know like the kid who says "I can tie my shoes by my self", and they are on the wrong feet). I can now use my crutch like a trebuchet to launch my shoe from the floor to the bed. And I learned how to ride an elevator. And if I look like a sad panda in the snow on crutches, then people are not as douche-nozzly as they could be.
7. Even the cats are doing thier part to keep me sitting and not moving my foot around.
