Ack! I Find I Have Lost A Lot Of Patience.....

Let me start this off with a bit of good news about Mustachio.  It seems he is getting back some feeling in his hand.  Not a lot because he says it is still more numb than anything but....he's recovering some feeling that he didn't have pre-surgery.  Also, it seems one of the fish in his fish tank gave birth.   He's only spotted one little hatchling but it was a bit of a shock to him to see it at all.  He says it seems to spend most of it's time hiding in the greenery but he managed to relay to me a picture of it.  Small but obviously a baby fish.

Now....I am getting really worried about my leg and all the weeping it's doing.  Today it was swollen...and I mean noticeably swollen.  My left foot alone is almost double the size of the right one.  I really have tried to keep off that leg most of the time and have spent much of my day dozing.  Now,  perhaps that's not the best thing but it was too late for me to call the doctor's office about it when I finally got a bit worried.  I will do that first thing in the morning.  Maybe I am supposed to be doing more being on my foot than I have been to make sure I am making the blood flow through the new bypass.  I just don't know.  I DO know that the swollen leg weeps more  due to the fact that it is pulling on the staples.  So, I will have to find out more tomorrow for my own satisfaction, if nothing else.

I am going nuts with my craving for tortilla chips and the Beast forgets when he goes to the store.  Or, perhaps he is hoping I will just die from the longing...LOL!

I am truly not good company and am not noticing anything else going on in the world except that James Garner died.  Sigh!  Another of our idols (and a damn good actor to boot!) has left this plane of existence.  It makes me feel incredibly old and I really don't know half of the actors and actresses nowadays.

I am cutting this short and, despite what I feel, I am going to get this leg up once again and hope it helps.  I love you all and miss being able to get out and about.  I will let you know what the doctor has to say.  Meantime, YOU have a great week.  I don't wish this suffering on anyone!  ***Hugs***
