A bit late, a bit sore, but good?

I had an appointment this morning.  I doubted I would make it, but I wanted to call in.  Was only informed, reminded, too late yesterday afternoon for me to cancel.  I should have had it in my calendar.  But I'm... pushing so hard, in so many directings, that things just go off the rails sometimes.  I... can't keep up on everything.

More done this month than I usually do in five months.  Appointments, wound care here at home, managing this and that, while trying to take care of Sassy, my own food and cleanliness, and... else.  I'm absolutely battered.  I don't mind being battered, but it sure makes me move slower.  Not my preferrence, but... it's not horrible.

I know the alarms went off.  It just didn't matter.  Nothng made sense.  It wasn't until noon when the world came into some realization, and noon thirty before I could get up.  It seemed like the alarms were going off all morning.  I think, when they stopped, or I shut them off?  I kept dreaming about them going off.  It was horrible.  You can't shut off, or snooze, dream alarms!

Sassy was fed first thing.  Then into the shower.  I love, and hate, shower.  I left the wounds open last night, to give them something of a break.  I would today, but I want to wear compression again.  Getting so close, with that.  Every day, to every other day, for the next week, and... barring water retention becoming a short term issue again, I should be able to ease up on compression.

The swelling, in the ankle and knee, are mostly finished.  It's just the "kink" in them, that still needs some ironing out.  Though, going completely without compression, right now, and the swelling might return.  So... yes... another week or two, if not every single day, all day.  They work for about three days, then I have to change them, put on new ones, and wash the once I was using.  They make great washcloths though, and that is the best way to wash them.  Then just leave them to dry in the shower.  Doesn't matter if it's the shortest or longest ones, they alll work just like that, and very well.  Same with my "camping" underwear.  Something I mostly wear in the summer, being wicking and such.  Cotton, indoors, in the winter, is just fine by me.

They say we are heading toward another, perhaps final, snow this weekend?  Warming, then cooling for that?  Who knows.  Or... was I dreaming I heard that?  Hmm, I... don't listen to the radio, and don't have television broadcasts of any sort coming in.  I... am not sure where or when I heard, or would have heard, that.  Bleh.

Well... to finish drying, coffee, and...  I don't know.  Have a great day.
