My Life Thus Far

TGIF!

Thank goodness it's Friday! It's been awhile since I've
felt this greatful for the weekend. Although this week
seemed to have flown by, I'm still really tired and worn
out. I'm going to sleep as long as possible tomorrow.
Snookums has duty tonight, so I'll be sleeping alone, but
he said he'll be home by 7:30am, so I'll be able to sleep
in and he can take care of the girls' in the morning. I'm
not trying to take advantage of my condition. I'm trying
to keep up my end of the household, but I get so worn out
from the constant tension and physical discomfort I'm in.
Won't we all be glad when this is over? I feel bad for the
people that read my diary. My pain appears to be the main
topic of discussion for me, lately. Sorry :}

Work sucked today. Partly because it was quiet and I
didn't have a lot to do (other than pulling about 5
million charts and restocking) and because I was in a
crabby mood. I wish Vicodin didn't make me loopy, because
I'd take it during the day, but that isn't the case, so I
have to tough it out and if things aren't busy to keep my
mind off of the constant ache, it feels all the worse.
Instead of bustling around getting x-rays developed,
writing out patient treatment forms, updating the schedule
and other such meaningful tasks, I spent 5 hours pulling
Tuesday's and Wednesday's charts, restocking patient bibs,
cotton rolls, chair covers, putting 150 bitewing tabs onto
films, making full mouth x-ray bags and then another hour
of walking around looking busy, when in reality I was
bored stiff. Next week I'll only be working 3 days. You
don't know how much I'm looking forward to that!

Tonight, I'm going to be nice to myself and take a
scalding, hot bath filled to the brim with Calgon bubble
bath and lavender oil. I'm going to light a million
candles, sink down into the water and just steep like a
tea bag. Then, when I get out, maybe I'll have a cup of
tea with my nightly narcotics and pass out peacefully
while watching the news. Sounds like a plan! TGIF!
