what a message!

I wonder if you will have to stay in the hospital at all?
My guess is yes but am unsure. Do you know?

OMG yes! 3days to a week.

We never went grocery shopping yesterday because it was really windy and raining cats and dogs. We have to do laundry today, so there's no way I'm going after that. I'll pick up some milk on my way home, and do the rest of the shopping after I get my nails done tomorrow.

Corey looks so handsome with his new haircut!

So, now everyone knows about the surgery, and after explaining things, they were all very good about it. They all seemed to be very comforted by the fact that I'm having it done in Boston. The phone calls were all long, but I'm relieved things went so smoothly.

I am glad for you that your family sounds like they are being supportive!

Glad all phone calls are made. And received.

My family is being as supportive as they can be.

Yesterday was a total s- show...
I decided that I would color my hair in the morning, so I headed to CVS to buy hair color. I ended up with a box, where the contents had spilled out, so I had to head right back out to the store, but they didn't have my color left, and I ended up going a shade darker, which ended up coming out VERY DARK... not happy.
The it took me almost 2 hours to color my hair and clean out the HUGE shower/tub, so I was exhausted and not up to going to the supermarket. I figured no big deal, I would defrost some hamburger and make meatloaf for dinner, but I forgot that I used the last of the eggs for Corey's breakfast, and had already gone out for milk and paper towels. So, I had to go back out to pick up take-out...
4 trips out of the house.

My legs were really in pain and spasming, so I decided to try taking 20mg of Baclofen and try taking to take a nap (around 3pm), and I did nap for the first time in a long time. Unfortunately, it was still in my system when I took my night pills when I went to bed at 8:30 because I was falling asleep on the couch. I wound up sleep walking, falling asleep on the toilet twice that I remember, hitting my head repeatedly on the glass shower door next to it, then finally falling off the toilet (without injuring myself).

I am exhausted today and in a lot of pain. I went to get my nails done, and bought cigarettes. I've decided I'm only buying a few things at the grocery store when I go, and will buy the rest at Pea Pod and pick it up on Wednesday, so they will just do the shopping for me and load up my car. I STILL have to go to the supermarket tho because I had to come home and wait for the postman to come because I'm expecting packages. I wish Corey would come home and wait for those for me so I can get the shopping over with.

I still have to clean the sink and the toilet, but that will have to wait until tomorrow... if I'm up to it, since I have to take mag. citrate tonight.

Oh, and Rocky kicked s- balls out of the box 3 times in the last 2 days. I'm just thrilled about that. I wish my cats could understand what I'm saying and learn how to behave themselves!

I need rest. I am soooooo tired. It doesn't take much.

I am sorry you had a rotten day.
((((HUGS))))
I hope your spasms let you sleep.

Have no idea how I made it through the supermarket, but I did.

By the time I got home it was way too late to take a nap, and I couldn't smoke MJ for my pain and spasticity because it would make me more tired, and I had to stay up late to take mag. citrate...
At least the Pats were playing. It was a good defensive match-up, so it was a good game. I watched most of it, and the Pats were way ahead when I went to bed (they ended up winning)
If I was having any spasticity last night, it didn't wake me up. Before bed, I smoked a lot of pot to control my symptoms, and I was out cold as soon as my head hit the pillow

I had my nails painted fire engine red yesterday. I was so happy to see Judy! She showed me so many super-cute pictures and short little videos of her baby. I can't believe he's 6mo old already!!!
I will find out on the 12th if I can have nail polish, and what kind, on my nails for the surgery. So, I'm going to wait to see Judy again until the 19th, so she can either just take the dip off my nails for me, or totally redo them, right before surgery since I won't be able to drive there for a while because I'll be on narcotics. I really hope I can have my nails done before I go into the hospital.

Love,
Kay, who is happy because she has nowhere to be, and nothing to do today

I got my nails done yesterday too.
I have them use the gel polish.
They have to remove it by grinding them off gently and then soak for a while in acetone. I really like it. It makes my nails harder and I am hard on them, using them for work.
I have them clear. this is the 2nd time that I have used them. They lasted a month.

I am glad that you have an off day. hoping that you can take a nap today if you feel like it.
