Repeat after me: OUCH

[cornerofmadness]

So taking the sling off was ouchy McOuch. It kept me up most of the night. It hurts now. It's not horribly painful, more like a toothache, dull and throbbing. I have ice on it now. The REAL problem is trying to remember NOT to do stuff with this arm. I'm putting it in the sling while working or I'm going to hurt myself. I've also learned I can't even active-assist this arm straight up over my head. I have a TON of therapy waiting on me (12 weeks worth to be precise unless I a) do really well b) do really poorly).

I was so pissed today at my post office. I wanted to get bills packages etc. I get there at 10 and it's already closed. It only opened at 8 AM and the close wasn't even written on the board. It's like we'll close whenever the fuck we feel like it on Saturday.

Spent the day working on lecture notes. I had to be insane to argee to completely redo from the ground up two anatomy classes at once.

I'm having issues with the cats but I'm trying hard not to be mad. I know they've have an unsettling summer with going to PA, mom being here, the sitter being here, me being gone for weeks. When I got home there was poop on the floor. I was not pleased naturally. I thought maybe (and I still think it) it was because my friend REALLY piled the litter in the box. It was inches deep. I don't do that. Today there was more poop on the floor and later, someone peed on the paper recycle bag (i'm thinking it's Kanda). I took a lot of the litter out so hopefully that'll be the end to it.

Yay, daylilies.

Oh, geeze, to the poop and pee. I'd get some vinegar in those areas to see if that wards the cats off it. Otherwise, ew.

You're pissed at the post office, Mom's drug store wasn't open at 4:00 when I went to get her new meds. *headdesk*

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yeah naturally it's on my carpet

not sure of their names

oh geez

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's why the vinegar might help. X_X

I forget the names of mine pretty quickly unless they're marked.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yeah to all of it

the only tomato with fruit on it is the unmarked one

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Of course.

My yellow is very happily producing fruit. All the others are just producing flowers as of yet.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

the san marzano had plwenty of fruit but the coon ate it

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

That just sucks. We have hornworms on the tomatoes and have killed two, but Mom thinks there's another one.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

none of those...yet

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

I felt bad squishing the one I found.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

they're messy too

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Yes, he pooped on me before I squished him.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

ew

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Yes. Quite.

[sillymagpie.livejournal.com]

Great day lilies. Ochy ouch.

Boo to the pee...

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks

yeah they need to knock that shit off

[sp23.livejournal.com]

Has Rogue lost weight?

Man, cats do not like their routine upset, but what a nasty punishment they've devised.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

he has, he's looking good.

you know, i expected this sort of thing when I took them to grandma NOT when I let them stay at home. Sigh

[caffeinified.livejournal.com]

ouch ouch ouch. I hope the PT goes okay for you and that you make some progress.

Oh that would drive me nuts with the post office. At least have a sign!

Rebuilding those classes going to take a lot of work on your part?

Man, you have a lot of writing on your to-do list!!

Oh wow, those flowers are so pretty!!!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks. sadly I'm not in PT for most of this week but I'm doing the stuff my brother told me to at home.

yeah a sign would be mice

A ton of work. I'm taking a one semester class and stretching it to it's proper two semester format which means adding a lot of material and labs.

I DO, scary list

thanks. the nice thing about living in the temperate zones, you can get some really great gardens

The post office up in Garden City, six miles from me, always closes at 10 AM on Saturday. It's a small town thang, and I've watched people from bigger towns get absolutely pissed off when they find the doors are locked in this one. They have actually turned to glare at me, where I am calmly retrieving my mail from the cubby hole I have rented. I just shrug and tell them "Small town...it's what we do." Then they REALLY get pissed off to find that the bank also closes early on Saturday. Hell they stay open late on Friday, what more do they want?

Umm...yeah...your cats are SO not happy that you "left them" to "fend for themselves" and had "strangers" "invade" their territory. Shitting and pissing on things other than their box is SOP for an upset cat. The white vinegar mixed with a bit of water ought to do the trick. Yelling at them sure won't help...that'll just upset them all the more. (been there done that...OYE!)

Remember hon...."Slow and steady wins the race" repeat as needed.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

it's supposed to close at 10. It closed early

yeah the cats are about to find a noseful of vinegar
