Growing Up

groceries.

I have a car (standard) and a housemate who wants to get some today. And me with abosolutely no earthly desire to leave my bed yet. The muscle aches haven't settled.

If anyone is up for driving stick and running some errands... contact myself or suburban_mom.

Thks.

Went back to GGH yesterday for an ultrasound. First time I ever had an abdominal done, very cool! I saw my spleen!!

Not sure why they wanted it done, but it showed nothing. I waited in ER from 11- 2:30pm to find that out!!

I am on Tylenol 3's. And when they wear off, I can't tell if it's the pain that makes me get all cold, shakey and uncomfortable, or if it's withdrawel from the codeine.

I've cut my dosage back to 1 every four hrs or so, instead of 2. And that seems to be fine.


I have things I wanted to do today. Was supposed to go the Elmira Maple Syrup festival, want to refill my water containers etc.

I need to start icing my back & shoulder again, with the pain, I've been hunching and that's a no-no!!

And yet, I'm crawling back into bed.

Well, not really, as in I'm not EATING lunch.  Again, I forgot to grab it, and I'm waiting for a school to call so can't leave my desk.

I had hoped to sneak out around noon, head to the "Doctor's Office" on University to see the guy who DIDN"T complete the WSIB paperwork when I was there on Feb 20th, and be back for my 3pm meeting.  

That's not happening today.  There's a young lady I need to go interview instead.  So perhaps I'll manage to wrap the meeting up early enough to p/u K and head to the clinic to get the Dr. to fill out the paperwork.

I hurt like hell right now.  I can't take the muscle relaxants when I'm working, cause they make me sleepy.  So I'm at work, no ice pack, spent 3 hrs in a meeting, and have an ache from my buttocks to tips of my hair.

I was adjusted by the new chiropractor last night, he wants to see me again this week.  He figures if he can't help me in under 3 weeks, he can't help me at all.  I agree with that remark and will be due to see the primary physician on 11 April 08 anyway.

Work related: over my recording days, I got 5 files closed (from 24 down to 19).  I have 2 more ready to close.  I've booked another week of recording time in order to play catch up with my ongoing files.  

I have vacation the last week of April.  I have no plans.  But I have a WEEK off....

Budget is UBERTIGHT for the next couple of weeks, because I am out of pocket on the chiro & RMT treatments I've been getting this month.  That sucks.

To be fair though, I have locked an amount away for a secured credit card, but haven't gotten the paperwork completed or the card yet.  I'm hoping to use it for my gas and those "online" purchases that I want to make.

Well, that's it for now...back to the grind.

I have a standard. I am hoping to get to Hamilton to talk to my Dr.***By 3pm today*** regarding this shoulder. I need a letter or something for work.

I'm fairly certain that driving is part of what is aggravating it. Certainly it is worse everytime I do any driving the previous day.

If anyone has a free day, drives stick in the snow and wants to hang with me, or wants to drive me and I'll be the willing passenger!!!!! Please let me know. I have to be there for 3pm.
