Day 30 - War wounds

 I must have overdone it yesterday as I didn't wake up until 12pm, although was woken at 08:00 by builders once again telling me I cannot use the toilet and water for the day! How on earth do they expect me to do this when I am in all day I do not know.

So after a wonderful lie-in I got up for my lunch instead of breakfast. I am so happy with how my face is changing is very swollen still but I can already see the difference in my chin and my top lip. Just the rest of my face to work on now. My nose is still slightly wonky but my surgeon has promised me with a capital 'P' that this will self correct.





Today has been fairly unproductive just did some cleaning around house and read some of my book. Had a look online for some inspriation regarding Christmas pressies but alas none, except found some for myself.  Anyway tonight when trying to put my elastics in I manage to cut my finger open in not one but two places on my brace, these contractions should come with a warning.

This picture does it no justice but;

'oooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww'

So after a few muttered words under my breath I manage to finally using a different finger get my elastic in the right place. However this is now going be a challenge as I can't use this finger so will take me a lot longer. Think I might give up with taking the elastics in and out and just not eat. However not sure if my stomach would allow this as already tonight I had a 2nd dinner, celery soup just didn't cut it so out came the pasta once again.

Going to set my alarm tomorrow so I actually get up at a sensible time although I am sure the 3 year old will lovingly wake up to see Aunt Pat Pat. Also need to grab a shower before those pesky builders tell us we can't use the water all day.
