beansideAnd it's Monday again. Boo. It's going to be a challenging week, as my sister is off work, and will be home all week. I'm not sure how things are going to go. She has a tendency towards loud that may be a problem, but we'll see. She's been given the ground rules, so hopefully, she'll curb the really loud shit. If I can just keep her from riling up the dog and going to help, and yelling "I'm coming" as she passes the office to go help dad, I'll be happy. It's still going to be a week of no peace whatsoever, and that is going to be tough. I feel mostly bad for Jess, who is going to be there to be shown every TikTok video with a cute cat, or a drag queen with a funny/poignant message.
I shouldn't bitch, since she took off so that Jess could have some time out of the house for their birthday. They have a hair appointment to have their hair dyed purple on their birthday tomorrow, and then on Thursday, their birthday gift from me--their second D&D tattoo. The first was for their character in Frostmaiden, Skink, and was a sword wrapped in briar roses, which is how I described the Holy Avenger sword I gave the character. The second will be a beautiful raven feather in honor of Tali from Strahd, who is a cleric of the Raven Queen. It's going to be beautiful, and I'm looking forward to seeing it!
Yesterday was a mostly quiet day. We ventured out in the morning to grab more coffee creamer, prescriptions and hit the dispensary for nighty night pills for Jess, and then home again. Dad is still uncomfortable, but wasn't int he full swear and flail mode, so that was okay. He got up for an hour or so, which really does seem to help him.
Today, my sister is going out for lunch, and then will be doing laundry, so it should be a mostly quiet time. Tomorrow will be the real test, when Jess is out being dyed. I have my rescheduled 90day check in, so I can ask about how to put in for PTO, since I can actually start using it now.
Tomorrow I also have my appointment with ortho #2. Hopefully, he'll be less of an asshole. But we'll see what he says. After ortho #1, I'm not holding out much hope for actual assistance beyond "do therapy and get people to give you drugs, but not me. I can't do anything that helpful."
The thing that bugs me is that the reading I've done has stressed over and over again that tears just don't spontaneously close up. Especially tears in the infraspinatus. The Mayo Clinic specifically states that the infraspinatus has poor bloodflow and won't heal itself. So therapy is going to work to increase the strength of my other muscles to help compensate, but the tear will still be there. Pulling and feeling like it's tearing anew every time I reach for something? Aching at night? I don't know. I don't want to hurt like this forever. I mean, I know I'm aging and pain is part of that, but this seeems excessive at 51.
Okay, time to get my ass in gear, so today we have another fan vid. Think I'm down to my last two days of vids. These were in no particular order, but tomorrow's may be my favorite.
For today, we have Start A Fight, by autumnhobbit. It's a slightly slowed down version of Panic at the Disco's the Good, the Bad, and the Dirty.
And now, time to put on pants. Everyone have an excellent Monday!
