My bubbles...

I have given up fizzy drinks for lent - less than a week down and I had a struggle with it in the supermarket today. I was trying to justify buying fizzy water with flavours saying that it wasn’t really soda. I am addicted to bubbles. I resisted. Of course on the up-side I drove myself to the supermarket for the first time in almost two months - woo hoo!

look TWO HANDS

Well bone not healed but nice Dr decided not to put another cast on and instead I will have my nice new splint for at least two weeks, probably four. Physiotherapy starts Monday but for now I am a little stiff, but happy.

Tomorrow is only a day away

Should be sans cast tomorrow. HURRAH!

This is for liz who misses me

Rant:

I don’t want to be going back to ‘home sweet home’. Already miss the real deal

I have a really obnixous cough and the biggest stinker of a cold (which no doubt half the aeroplane caught this morning) and a temperature and that is not ideal for traveling.

I have an EIGHT HOUR LAYOVER in Newark - enough said

My nose is raw - but my left nostril is more affected - not sure why it is running more, clearly it is more of an athlete than the right.

I am trying to work but cannot make notes by hand thanks to right-arm

Guy next to me on plane this morning snored in a way I thought impossible from a human for 5 of the 8 hours - and he was rude to me in the remaining 3.

Rave:

I am in first class lounge - free internet, beverages, and cheese. Could get ratted but not good for work.

Had lovely time at home. The wonderful M could not have been more wonderful among other things.

Cast comes off in under a week

Despite head threatening to explode and massive tissue pile I have managed to read a complicated paper and get it.

Is anybody there...?

Yes chaps and chapettes I am still here, on my third cast with only two weeks to go until I get my arm back from its fiberglass prison. Two weeks then, I hope, till I start blogging regularly again. Have not even really said how the holiday went so I will have loads to talk about. Back in the UK for the mo, being looked after as I don’t function well one handed. I head back pondwards once the cast is ready to be removed. Well just thought I should let all know I’m here and doing OK. Adios.
