Snow Day

We basically have a blizzard here, which means that everyone his home today--Aaron, Ryan, and Bailey (who usually goes to doggy day care on  Fridays.)   Generally this would be a good thing, as it's fun to have a day at home unexpectedly, however having a 2 year old in the house while I'm trying to rest and sleep is not easy.   Our condo isn't exactly the best when it comes to sound-proofing and noise control, so I hear everything that is going on.  I'm exhausted, in pain, and starting to get cranky, and trying really hard not to take it out on everyone else.   I suppose ear plugs would help this situation, but no one can go get some because of all of the SNOW.   We are supposed to have 10-16" by the time it's all said and done.  Yuck.   My office did not open today--which I think is a first.  Of course the only time they will ever have a snow day is when I'm out on short term disability.  It will probably never happen again.

Day 3 is proving to be about as painful as Day 2 was.  The bandage/splint feels like it's way too tight and my foot is just begging to be let out.  I have it elevated but I know the swelling is pretty bad, even though I can't see it.  I'm starting to be able to wiggle my toes more, though it hurts like hell to try.  I can feel that the incision is really long from mid-foot to the back of my ankle, and it constantly burns.

Ryan and Mom are making Christmas cookies today.  Hopefully those will cheer me up a little bit.  I really think I just need some more sleep.  Wish me luck.
