not as bad...

as last time. Thankfully! This is what they looked like on Friday night,

and then on Saturday. They got a bit gooey but thankfully nothing like the last batch. I really hope that is it! I am tired of the itching! Thankfully they are practically all gone today.

Even though I went out yesterday to watch the football match, and knew I was going to be indoors, I put bug repellant on my legs, just in case. I'm going to have to stock up on that stuff now. Hopefully I can find something that works that is not full of all the poisonous chemicals though. I will do a search today.

Getting back to hip related items...
My right hip has not been to happy lately. I think it's from a combination of leaning on my right side so much because of surgery (yes, my bum is still killing me when I sit on it), and last week I forgot to take my Mobic. Well, didn't really forget, but was afraid to take it too soon after surgery as I didn't know if it would make me bleed more. I started it again yesterday, so we will see how that goes. Dr. Aronoff's office rang this morning to cancel my post-op on Thursday. The woman first said she would give me an appointment the week after, and when I expressed my concern about waiting and really wanting to see him this week, she got all snipish. I know it's Monday morning, but come on. Finally she conceded and got me in for Wednesday. It was strange, they're usually very nice there.

I haven't really slept the last two nights so hoping I can sleep tonight! Well, at least it's a short week this week!
