Out and about little bit.

I was up until about three this morning working on house plans and other stuff. Unfortunately I was unable to sleep in as I needed to take Luke to school this morning. Liz had a meeting during that time. After dropping him off I drove down to Cedar Direct in Chapel Hill to discuss lumber. Then I went home. I just relaxed all afternoon, hung out with Luke once he returned, and will try to go to bed early tonight.

Laying low.

First thing this morning I went to Kroger and Walgreens before returning home. I removed my bandages, cleaned my wounds, and rebandaged myself. There was only a little discomfort during that process. Liz and Luke went to Franklin and I talked on the phone with my father-in-law for most of the morning. This afternoon I just relaxed and worked on my accounting for the houses. We had a later than usual dinner after Liz and Luke returned. He had gotten a haircut after school.

Mixed news from the doctor.

I called the hand surgeon as instructed this morning and was told to come in and they would try to see me. So I did and was seen promptly. First my bandages were removed, which was quite painful. My fingers looked pretty rough. The PA came and looked at them and took a few pictures to show the surgeon. She returned and had me move my fingers a bit, which I did to her satisfaction. She told me that there would probably be no long term loss of function, but not to work for a month. The nurse rewrapped my hand, I scheduled another appointment for next week on my way out, then I drove home. I spent the rest of the day mostly in bed. I listened to a little bit of some Mike Rowe podcasts and also started the latest episode of Magnum PI, although I couldn’t really get into it. I don’t think I will really follow the Tide tonight. I just don’t have the energy for that.
