So, it turns out sleeping without a cast is actually Really Fucking Painful - going from a tight cast to no support at all is not a Good Thing.
Dispatched being_here to purchase a support bandage thingy which helped some tho.
Also getting the hang of the ROBOBOOT now and it is actually quite comfortable, especially in the car.
I even managed to get down to the office today to say Hi and speak to boss/possible prospective boss types (there's a bit reshuffle planned next week, no-one has any idea who'll be doing what) to explain it'll be a few weeks yet before I return. Still got a stack of stuff I can do from home, so that's something at least.
ION... none really. It is good to be back in my own house, but being here by myself on would be a bit tricky alas, so it'll be be back to the mother's next week.
Having teh visitors is great tho (and not just because they fetch and carry for me ;p), there has been much watching of dvds and drinking of fizzy wines. Hurrah!
Also discovered i can order the Cider of JOY from tesco online! I may have to drink it in bed tho, I'm pretty sure Katy + Crutches + Stairs = DISASTER waiting to happen.
I will have to start inventing wild and wacky adventures soon, or this is all going to get Incredibly Dull. blah blah blah LEG blah blah blah. Meh.

In additional news I am also stranded from going to get my meds tomorrow so here comes a week of renewed pain until I can get to the doctors.
I hate floods.
I like your leg - do you get to keep it?

It's not been to bad in the centre - it's the outskirts, and the posh caversham district where it's really been bad

Date: 2007-07-26 07:19 am (UTC)I didn't have any sleeping issues without the cast, mine were all with it, primarily because I'd kick tara in my sleep, and the fibreglass would scratch her legs :)

Date: 2007-07-26 10:52 am (UTC)And I kept doing that to myself with the fiberglass, it's scratchy stuff :p
Leg seems to have settled now, it was just the first night it was all OWOWOWOW, thankfully!
