changes why?

and the change has come... this blogger new look is finally forced upon everyone and my first reaction is similar to my last reaction when i checked it out, why?... for me, the drawback is fewer blogs and less information fits on the screen, so there is more clicking and scrolling to access and manage my many blogs... on the other hand, the cleaner look with bigger fonts and bigger buttons probably works for most who are not afraid of change... so ok, it's done, i'll get used to it...

meanwhile today was challenging... after standing less than five minutes yesterday, today i headed out to the doctor and why does modern medicine have to aggravate an injury or illness by forcing the body to do exactly (or close) the opposite of the advice the doctor finally gives after the waiting... i was elevating, icing, immobilizing, and resting except for the hours i spent at the doctor's office where there was no way to elevate, ice, immobilize, or rest... not to mention exposure to many more germs and bugs than i would have been by staying home... so the foot is more swollen and hurting much more tonight than last night...

i stopped at work to take care of something very time and legally sensitive and found the actions needed to be done by others were not done since i let them know what was missing last week... a few key people just don't seem to care about very important things, alas, and the challenge to keep the place safe, open, and free of expensive lawsuits continues...

and jackson loves me... she took such good care of me the past two days, i would have been seriously hurting a lot more and feeling very depressingly alone if she wasn't here so yay for my roommate and friend... i don't know how i am going to manage tomorrow as i need to get into work but also need to keep my foot elevated, not walk on it much, and not push it too much... but if i don't drive, i am stuck there until jackson can get back and if i do drive, that will be painful pushing a clutch with a boot on...

did i mention i have an immobilization boot?... a bad sprain with a few bone chips, ain't that a kick in the ankle... and that sums up the painful news from the medical world... and the day that was... i know a few of you, maybe more, care and want to know, and i appreciate that (even without the interactions here)... if you were wondering, now you know...

take care of you...
