I
was kind of excited. On the way home from the movies yesterday I
stopped at T.J. Maxx and was really looking for some “S” hooks
for the rack in my kitchen. The last hooks I got I purchased from the
Internet and the last time I was in T.J. Maxx I wondered if they had
those books but I didn't look. The have a lot of cooking things so I
figured I'd check before I ordered again off the net. Well, they did
not have the bucks but they had some cute microwavable covered bowls
that would be just perfect for heating up soup there about five
dollars a piece so I got two of them.
I
actually had some soup that I made last week in the refrigerator that
I needed the use and get out of the coldbox. What a great reason to
use the new purchases. Larger of the vessels which I guess was for
soup and such worked really great for the first helping that I heated
up. That was so good that I decided I would finish off the soup free
at the container and give my new cooking toy a workout. I don't know
what I was thinking but I had pulled the soup from the microwave
placed it on the countertop and was going to move it onto my lap
board to carry over to this TV is involved in a movie. I was not
paying attention and I went to move in another direction and all the
sudden all that hot soup tumbled right into my lap. Luckily or
unlikely it's hard to say but the strap that holds my legs together
took most of the heat are soup. However, a couple of spoonfuls
tablespoons seeped over under my leg. It raised a couple of blisters.
In the old days I would adjust checked out the damage and if it
wasn't losing her blood or anything like that I just go on about my
day. There was a little pain at the burn site not too bad and the
wounds weren't that bad either barely a blister but in the new
commitment to help I decided I would dress the wound myself then in
the morning go over to the dock in a box around the corner and have
the people there check it out. I figured that dress the wound in turn
me loose.
The
clinic did not open until 9 o'clock and I have the 930 coffee group
on Thursdays of course so I did the group that came back the
apartment drained and headed out. Got the bus which drops me off
right across the street from the clinic. There was no waiting to
speak of as they checked me and put me in the room as I waited and
finally the dock shows up. The thing about the dock in the box he
just get the dock of the day and that's cool I don't have a problem
that she was great but there always supersensitive to spinal cord
injury and what they believe is pertinent to spinal cord injury care.
Long story short, I got a tetanus booster and orders to go up to
University medical Center tomorrow for burn / wound consult with the
burn unit up there. My good friend Kevin works at the burn unit
hopefully I'll get to see him tomorrow but a trip up to the
University was not in my plans for Friday – – they are now. I
could be noncompliant to blow the whole thing off because I think
with the medication the nurse put on my wound today and taken it easy
for a couple days I'll be just fine but I'm trying to be a better
patient these days so tomorrow 3:25 PM I have a appointment with the
wound clinic. Tomorrow I was to begin my new cleaning person at 3 PM.
Since she's my regular Monday Wednesday Friday home health person I
trust or implicit and I'll just leave her with directions on what
needs to be done in the apartment in the two hours of contract for
tomorrow. Perhaps his best this way anyway since I tend to yammer
with whoever the cleaning person is.
Getting
colder these days just being out even when the sun shining. Tomorrow
should be a good day to travel before the days get cooler even more,
it's kind of spooky returning to the University for medical
assistance but perhaps It'sbest…
