Second to the last day of 2008
Dec. 30th, 2008 08:49 pmI went to the Orthopedic guy (Dr. Barnes) and got another shot of cortizon--but only in the left knee. The right knee is okay.
That freaking NEEDLE IS HUGE. It hurt, but not much. It didn't make me want to scream, cry, or run away. I think he put more goop into my knee this time as it felt really full--like there was a lot of stuff pushed into a very small opening in my knee. I think I bled more this time too--not a lot--but a good drizzle of blood coming out of the big puncture in my knee.
While I was in the waiting room, one of the nurses investigated my sewing box and looked at all the little outfits I had cut out in there. She asked how much I would sell barbie clothes for. I may have to work on sewing up some, even though I do not especially enjoy sewing for adult dolls. I like sewing for the children much better.
I could use a few extra bucks to put towards bills and also towards some of my OWN doll wants--I want more shoes for my Tonner and Kish and LeAnn dolls!!
I went to school after that--I stopped and got a chicken strip basket at DQ for lunch. I wanted some Chinese food---all day I wanted Chinese food. Sigh.
IF I roust out tomorrow and go to Owatonna for groceries, I may swing by the chinese restaurant and get me some good Chinese buffet.
*drool*
Before I went to school, I went through the Subway drive thru and got myself a couple of bottles of diet coke. Then I went by the post office and dropped off all the bills I wrote out yesterday. Sigh. I freaking HATE bills. *wah*
I was pleased by the number of kids who showed up at school--Sami, Kirstin, Dani, Jessica (and her baby boy, Connor), and Corrie. They worked very hard. Three of them are almost done with their research papers which was both good and bad. It was good in that I was able to proof read their papers for them--but BAD in that Idid not get time to do ONE THING that I brought with to amuse myself with. Sigh.
Corrie needed a ride downtown afterwards, so I didn't hang out at school any longer. I had sort of intended on hanging out at school a bit then going to a movie afterwards--but, it began snowing fiercely at about 2:15. It was so intense, it was like being in a snow globe--HUGE fluffy flakes.
I decided my best bet was to go home. I gave brief thought to stopping for Chinese take out, but I knew I had pizza and chicken drummies at home, so I came home and ate them.
When I got home, there was a box hanging from my door--it turned out to be the red velvet vintage angel I bought for my mom. I'll take a picture of it and post it tomorrow. It is cute. Needs a good cleaning, though.
I didn't do much else when I got home--Talked to Lisa on the phone and played a little Sims. That's about the extent of my exciting evening.
Now, I am going to bed fairly early as I want to go grocery shopping tomorrow. I need to get something a little snazzy for my new year's eve quiet, contemplative night at home.
I'd really like to get a very small bottle of asti. I love that stuff.
We will see how it goes, I guess.
Tomorrow I have several issues I need to address....
- Wash clothes
- vacuum and dust LR and DR
- pick up clutter in LR and DR
- sweep and scrub kitchen floor
- vacuum and scrub bathroom floor and hallway
- get groceries
- put fresh bedding on the bed.
- water the plants
- wash dishes
- tidy counters and tables in kitchen
- clean out freezer in kitchen
This is why I have to roll out of bed in the morning and get an early start. If I get to Owatonna early enough in the morning, I can beat the rush. I hate having to compete with dozens and dozens of other people in a store. Especially when I am crippled up. I won't feel as dumb riding around in one of those little cart deals if I am basically alone in the store.
sigh
okay--that's it for tonight.
Tomorrow night I will no doubt post my long list of hopes, dreams and goals for 2009 as well as my gratitudes and accomplishments of 2008.
Love to all--especially my sweet peas.
