Saw the hand specialist last night. Very nice man, cut me a break on his
fee. Not too gory, but cut for those who don't want to read medical details )

No painkillers yet today and it's going pretty well. If I try to use the
hand, I get fierce burning pain still, but it goes away faster. Hand
specialist appointment tonight. Feels like things are going well, and I
can type a few words at a time two-handed when I get frustrated.

sighhh

Want my hand back. For typing, yes, but also for holding things including
hands, for fishing keys out of my bag, and for tying up my hair. Not
feeling super-whiny about it, just mildly frustrated.

Tomorrow I have a wound check at 9:45, so I decided to take the morning
off rather than try to do the work/doctor/work shuffle. It's hard for me
to take time off work -- I think I've missed two unscheduled days since I
started here -- but enough is enough. I'm tired.

Oh, and did I mention how much I appreciate codeine?

I'm guessing my posting/commenting will be less prolific until I can type
with both hands. Takes so long this way.

Wonderful party yesterday. I will post pics tonight. I usually throw my
own parties, so it was such a fun luxury to have this. [livejournal.com profile] loracs
went all out, too -- decorations, party favors, a game, and a gourmet
feast replete with colorful veggies!

Menu (I may forget some bits)

appetizers (pizzelle cookies, peanut butter cups, fresh figs from their
tree, grapes, crackers w/[livejournal.com profile] tracytreefrog's dip)
sparkling juices -- pomegranate, cranberry, blueberry -- along w/other drinks
vegan potato-leek soup w/a touch of lemongrass
roasted cherry tomatoes
salad of baby plum tomatoes & baby mozzarella balls
[livejournal.com profile] sogwife's veggie-and-almond salad
roasted red peppers
huge tray of other roasted veggies: corn, portabellas, squash, beets,
parsnips, carrots, onions, eggplant
salmon -- I took a little taste, and it was the best I've ever had
dessert was homemade whole-wheat berry cobbler with choice of soy ice
cream, real ice cream, or cool whip
Oh, and my favorite gummy candies, because [livejournal.com profile] loracs wubs me

Just sayin'.

Thank you, everyone. Won't be typing much for a while. The codeine and I wish you a good night.

Two years running, I missed RJ/RA's birthday party for one reason or another. This year, I made a lovely quinoa salad (no gluten) and as I was carrying it outside in its lovely porcelain bowl, I twisted my ankle, dropped the bowl, and fell onto the shards of porcelain. That was around 4pm. I got released from the ER at 10pm, with 8 stitches in my hand. *sigh*

I was really looking forward to seeing everyone.
