turpsJames got his cast off yesterday, and man, what an afternoon. It took 45 minutes to find a parking place at the hospital, then it was a case of going to the fracture clinic, which was standing room only. Onto the plaster room for removal, then x-ray and another wait, back to fracture clinic to wait to see the doctor again. Only to find the bone hasn't healed. It's still snapped through, with only a few fragments of bone starting to form. But they haven't put a cast back on, instead he's got a soft removable split with a metal insert. The only problem being James' wrists are so bent the metal bit doesn't fit at all. Plus he's got a staple from an old operation just under the skin of his hand, and the splint is pressing painfully on that. We had to stop on the way home and improvise padding with cotton wool and bandages. So basically he's been discharged with broken hand still, and told no heavy lifting for eight weeks until it's healed.
We came back from there and had to pick the bettaware books up. There were over 100 of the damn things out, and of course it was bucketing it down, and really windy. Knocking at doors in the dark, cold, wet and fed up isn't my favourite thing to do at all. Though I was rocking the plastic look. I haven't got a waterproof coat, so put on the plastic mac thing the MiL bought for me. Think the plastic sheet affairs you can buy for water rides and you're close. The thing is huge, big even on me, so it was flapping around me as I hurried down the street, cursing myself for wearing sandals in the rain. What can I say? I'm not smart at times.
Kay's taken Corey out for the day, James is at work, so it's just me and Silver. I need to do the bettaware order first though, then get started on my costume for tomorrow. This isn't going to go well I can tell. I may still be trying to attach cob webs this time tomorrow. I'm actually looking forward to the party, especially as the best friend and her son are coming too. The only worry is mam. She's in a trouble making phase, but what can you do except hope she doesn't drink too much?
CSI people. Does the show have actual arcs? I ask because right now between living and 5US I'm watching three different seasons. If there are arcs I may be screwed.
Okay, I need to do that order, and while doing so will ponder SeSa choices. Two years I've had trickc, once trickyfish. I may throw something else into the mix this year.
