Hooray for good days!

It stormed here last night.  I was awakened a few times by the thunder and lightning, which made me very tired this morning.  I got up a little early, and was at work a little early.  When I got there I found out the power was out.  After a little while I was told to come home since the outage didn't have an end in sight.

I have to say, that's pretty darned good timing.  It's been a crazy few weeks here.  Last night, seemingly for no reason, the muscles that sit just on top of my SCS battery started twitching.  I tried laying down to get it to stop and it didn't.  I kept changing my position slightly in hopes I could relieve it.  No such luck.  So it twitched away all night.  It's still twitching.  I'm not sure what's going on, but it is pretty painful.  All that to say if the power was going to be out any day and they were going to send me home, today was the day.  I can't believe how lucky I am.

Speaking of work, like I said, it's been crazy.  We've been busting our butts, since this is one of our busier times of the year, and it's taking it's toll on my RSD.  Of course I'm sure the weather fluctuations aren't helping, either.  It was 73F here yesterday.  It's only March.  I enjoy the warmer weather, but I'm sure winter will be making a vicious comeback in the next few weeks and I'm not going to be a happy camper.

Remember back in February when I talked about the glass lid I dropped on my foot in December?  The bruise under my toenail is still there.  It doesn't hurt any more than the rest of my foot hurts (I don't feel any added pressure or anything), so I have no intention of having it checked out.  However, the husband doesn't like that plan.  He thinks I should have it checked out and drained if that's what needs to be done.  I know that any injuries on my affected foot will take a long time to heal so I figure I might as well wait it out.

The husband and I have really found a fun hobby in home brewing.  We've completed 2 beers (the second is actually bottled and just waiting for the right moment for me to drink it).  I discussed previously how much standing is required, but with each batch we're getting better about how much time I spend in the kitchen.  I'm really having fun with this.  I hope I can keep up with it as time passes.  However, we also tried our hand at wine and I have to say that the amount of standing required with wine making is so much more conducive to me partaking in this hobby, so maybe I will always have something like that I can do.
