Rehab - Days 33 and 34 (18 & 19 Dec 2010)

Well, I woke up for the loo at 2:10 and stayed awake - just not interested in going back to sleep.  I spent the time surfing about the quilt fabric sales but was good (I love to fill up a shopping cart with everything that takes my fancy but then just exit out of IE and don't buy anything *EG*).  Then I got into my accounts, such as they are - have made a bit of a welter of spending the last week or two but if I want to get all the stuff done for the house, I'd better pull my head in!!

Spent the morning luxuriating in bed and Tina, my nurse for the day, let me too - interrupted only to give pills, take obs and then just before lunch, to weigh me (94.7kg so still losing and at a reasonable rate).  I was a bit bored earlier on and wished for visitors but got over that pretty quickly and played "Montezuma" which I thoroughly enjoy no matter how many times I go thru the levels.  Then I watched the last of the TV episodes I had there which passed the time pretty quickly.

Although I had lunch in my room (and had the last of my Weis bars - pooh, they were so nice - wonder if Leigh will get me some more? *G*), I did go out for tea - chicken soup - and tonite I managed to get up off the chair on my own: having lolled in bed all day, so I should've been able to!!  It's raining too which always makes me feel good.

I sucked all afternoon on the Chuka as Penny requested and was quite surprised that I liked it (not as good as potato chips tho!) - don't know if the sucking helped my swallowing but it seems to be moving the gunk off my chest, so will continue persevering - it's certainly not a hard ask!!

I kept drifting off while I played Montezuma so about 8.45, I turned everything off and think I was asleep in about a minute tops.  After the hard week, it was a beaut day of guilt-free R & R day!!!

I had another guilt-free R & R day today too, tho I did mean to get up and do a bit, but it was too nice in bed so stayed where I was and put earphones in to drown out Peter who has been quite aggro the last couple of days when he asks for a cigarette and gets an argument about how many he's had.  I am sooo sick of the continuing saga and I know I can't do anything about it, so have to try to shut him out like I do the others - God, I want to go home away from all this and these people so badly.  The nurses were kind and brought me soup in my room so I didn't have to go outside at all.

The internet was so slow today that I didn't bother with it, just watched some downloaded TV and played games.  It got faster later on so got a new game, Match 3 as usual - and have now caught up on all my game credits.  I played that for an age once it installed, think it's really for kids but I like the graphics, cheerful and cheeky!!  Then I got back on to Eldorado and lost about 4 hours, so was 12.30 before I turned out the light.

What a great weekend - haven't changed, given my druthers I am still as lazy as I always was! *G*
