This snow is driving me nuts. Another blast hit us, not as bad as was predicted (6-10", actually got about 4-5") but still...
So last week's appointment had to get rescheduled. That was because I woke up not feeling well. I came downstairs, Laura looked at me and told me I looked pale as a sheet, and I went into the kitchen, and within about 20 minutes, threw-up. So that appointment was reworked to tomorrow, Wednesday. (That's the one with radiation oncology.)
Plus, yesterday, I was supposed to have my CG appointment. That got cancelled when the whole federal government decided to shutter its doors for the day. I've called and left a message to reschedule. Nothing back from 'em, yet.
By the numbers, at least, I'm supposed to return to work a week from today. I do, for the most part, support that idea. I need to get back into the swing of things. This recovery has been long and slow, but I think it's time to start getting more active. That said, I don't think/feel like I'm ready to just jump behind the helm of a boat with 450hp, mount a 7.62mm machine gun to the front, and go crazy. But it is time to start thinking about the return.
Thing is, it'll be a short return. Laura is due in early April, and the plan always had been to then take a month off (same as I did with Teddy). So, all goes according to plan, I might just be at work for 2-4 weeks and then back out again. But at least this time, when I go out it's for an awesome, wonderful, joyous reason and not because I need further surgery.
I do still talk to the folks at work. Sounds like everything's going along - orders have come in for some, there's been a little "drama" (nothing out of the ordinary, there's always something going on), and with the bitterly cold temperatures, not too much has been going on.
I did go out and shovel the walk yesterday. Really. That's how I'm able to estimate 4-5" of snow. I was able to put on some snow bibs, grab the shovel, and actually clear the steps and sidewalk. It felt great to actually *do* something again.
Oh, and seriously - snow for sale. $5 a gallon, +S&H.
