I took the last three stitches off last night. Partially because they were almost off and partially because I don’t know how to be patient. The wound hurts quite a bit and is obviously not completely healed. I then started to worry that I took the stitches off too soon and my neck was going to explode open in the middle of the night. Thankfully, that did not happen. It still hurts and feels weird though. I’m hoping next week I can start applying cream to it to help it heal nicely.
We surprisinly finished dinner early last night. I didn’t feel like doing much of anything so we plopped on the couch to finish watching Planet Earth. The sad part was that by 8:00 I had fallen asleep. Yes, you read that correctly. I have no idea what happened to me but I woke back up again and could not keep my eyes open. I should have just let myself sleep but in fact I did not.
We eventually moved to the bedroom to watch TV because I figured I would just pass out right away and Chad could watch whatever he wanted. Instead, I laid their wide awake watching some reality show about some obese woman named Ruby who looses weight. Not going to lie, it was pretty interesting, unlike most of the TLC specials on Half Ton people. I just might have to become a weekly watcher.
After the show we went to bed and Chad decided to pretend that the remote control was a living object and wanted to snuggle in bed with us. We have this really weird thing where we pretend that inanimate object have feelings and we have to take care of them. So weird I know, but Chad thinks we do it because we are itching to take care of something but we have nothing to take care of. No babies or puppies yet, so we have to cuddle and care for remote controls, stuffed animals, and house plants. I think that’s also why Chad is obsessed with finding us a new home. Sending me MLS listings daily and reading up on ‘How to stage your home when selling it’. I kid you not, every day he points out something else about the apartment that we should fix or tweak in preparation for selling the place. Everything we do is about re-sell value, doing everything we can to get ahead and have a bigger home to fill with puppies and babies.
I think tonight might be my opportunity to get some reading done. Though at the same time Costco is having a special on printing pictures – 200 pictures for 20 bucks – so I might just get on that and organize all my honeymoon pictures so that I can actually put them into an album. I saved so many tickets and clippings from the trip so I could add them to my scrap book and they are in a big bag in my parents basement taking up space. I should probably hurry up and do something with that. Not to mention all the left over wedding stuff everywhere. I can’t wait to have a big house that will be able to hold all of my crap. Never under estimate the amount of storage you actually need when buying a house. Lesson learned!
Someone build me another closet.
