It's happened...finally! My leg feels great...not a lot of strength in it yet but I can walk damn near normally now. The oozing has stopped but I still keep a bandage on it, just in case! But it's a regular bandage like you would put on any wound. It's just a little bigger.
I no longer have *stretch* pains from the scar and most of the scabbing is gone now. There's still healing to do but, for the most part, I would have to say I am almost healed. I can get around without pain and no more pain pills!!! I feel wonderful!
Now, all I need is to try to get into a more normal sleep pattern! That would be great. Right now, I seem to be sleeping more during the day than at night. *Sigh* I force myself to stay awake as much as I can during the day but the minute I have to put my leg up to get down the swelling (which is only around my ankle now), I fall asleep for a couple hours...LOL! It's awful. I have things I want to get done but can't when the Beast is sleeping.
One thing that has me worried is a lump we found on Baron's paw tonight. It's not a bug bite or a bee sting either. I told the Beast he HAS to take Baron in to see the vet tomorrow. He will probably wait until Monday, knowing him. I have no idea why, when he is so damn attached to the dog, he would hesitate to do that. Not me. I worry. He pisses me off that way at times. But we shall see just how worried HE is.
Sheepie stopped by after work tonight and finally picked up the two paperweights that Carol sent for her. She just loved the one with blue swirls in it and thought the other one, with the multi-color swirls (egg-shaped) was fascinating. But it was the blue one that goes with her decor that caught her fancy. She also picked out her necklace from the ones Carol sent. I am going to give Tara and her sister-in-law, Lucy, the other two. The Princess already picked hers out. So all the girls in the family have necklaces now. Even Chewlee has one (the ballerina one Carol sent her). It's so neat that we all have them. At least, all of us here...LOL!
It's been warm during the day here and nice and cool at night. It's down to 64 degrees F. here already so I will sleep comfy. It only takes a light cover and that suits me to a T. No rain, thank goodness. We don't need it and it helps keep the humidity down. We sat out on the porch this afternoon while Baron rolled around in the grass and just had a ball! It was really nice but my poor butt (I really don't have one left these days). I need to grab a cushion the next time we do that.
Love you all. Have a fantastic weekend. I wish you all great weather and a chance to get together with friends and/or family to have a bit of fun. ***Hugs***
