Popsicle Central

Today I am feeling a bit better...more awake. My knee hurts almost as much but my head is clearer. I slept most of the night, or at least dozed. I was really nauseous right before bed, so I finally took some medicine for the nausea and that helped me sleep better. Then this morning I slept from about 11AM-2PM, so I am feeling a bit better. I have learned taken 1/2 a percocet every 2 hours instead of a whole one every 4 hours helps the most. The pain is never totally gone but it is never totally overwhelming. I have started getting headaches a lot...probably all the drugs. I am on a soup, watermelon and graham cracker diet...plus a lot of soda. I am still laying in bed about 95% of the time.... I only get up to use the bathroom. My mom washed my hair in the kitchen sink and I sponge bathed myself. Nice to put on clean PJs.

It is Friday. Probably not a lot going on this weekend. I think my mom is leaving tomorrow. Which I think both Justin and I are dreading, but she needs to get back to her normal life. And now I think one of my other sister's is heading home to my mom's now that she broke her elbow. She is casted up to her shoulder. She went first thing this morning to get her long, thick, black hair cut off because she cannot even wash it or get it into a ponytail. I feel worse for her because I have Justin around to help me and she cannot do anything....get dressed, wash, put on makeup, anything...I just cannot walk (but have crutches) and I won't be able to drive for awhile...she can at least drive because she broke her left arm.

Popsicle then nap.
