Day One. 4 PM

Took an antihistamine for the itching. It wasn't too bad to begin with but I didn't want it to get worse. I ate my regular lunch and then later I laid down and slept for a while. Sire came home and hollered his famous, "Hey, How ya'll doin'?" and startled me. He startled me again when he left. Cobb came home and I was sitting up and awake and I got startled again when she came in. I had just been up to use the bathroom and get some 3 Musketeers in the freezer. My foot was turning blue! I hadn't been up that long! I'm dying to eat the 3 Musketeers but I'll have to stay in the kitchen in order to eat each one frozen.

Mr. Cat is a little bit afraid of my crutches! It's cute. Except for when I'm going to feed him. Then, he puts up with them. I sure wish he'd come sit in my lap the way he did to DH when he had his colonoscopy. Still don't understand why I have these bruises/sore spots. When I scratch my head, it's right on the bruise.

I had hoped to edit pictures and videos while sitting on the couch. But I couldn't find the video editing software to put on the laptop. So I d/l a trial one. I made a rough draft and it's been saving it as a wmv file for a few hours now! I don't know what that means. It could be better than EMC9 and be better quality or it could be that it just takes forever and it's not any better. It's just a 10 minute video. I didn't make any text on it; it was just a test. I shouldn't have put all those video clips in it.

I thought I had already mentioned this, but my dad has prostate cancer. Both sides. He went to the dr. Monday and they both really like him and said that since it's slow growing, something else would kill him before the cancer would. Not sure what he's going to do but he's been tired lately and taking a lot of naps and the radiation will make him even more tired. Today my mom called to see how I was and she was all nervous because their crackpot neighbor called from a mental hospital and needed some papers from her house. She also said my dad was sick with Lady Di and a fever so she called my sister to help and she got Jake to come over to go with her. I called later to see how that went and she sounded more normal except that when she called the neighbor in the mental hospital she said she didn't need it instead. So, she was a little ticked off.

Can't believe how fast this day has gone. I had really hoped to get somewhere with these videos and pictures. Maybe later.
