Cake

 I rolled out of bed at 5:30 a.m. this morning. I've been awake for a little bit before I just wanted to make sure that I was up and dressed and ready to go by 8:00 when I would meet the kids over at the restaurant. I didn't mess around or anything and went straight into the bathroom did my business then came out I started dressing. I pretty much used all my time up and again I'm glad I tacked on the extra half hour. I could probably get dressed and everything if I got up at 6:00 a.m. but the half an hour's worth it to have the buffer of time to get all I need to get done and that's not even wearing shoes today. Still letting my feet breathe and heal. I may have to figure out another thing to do about shoes because at least the shoes I'm wearing tend to be shearing sides of my feet to the point that I have a wound nurse coming in and working on my feet. That's the first time that's happened. I've been getting so much attention between Wound Care Professionals and occupational therapists and physical therapists I really don't quite know what to do with myself. It certainly a lot of time in clinical type settings here in the apartment. I love getting stretched a little bit and doing the exercises that OT gave me that's cutting into the rest of my schedule now I've got to be more careful. I know I've got some doctor's appointments coming up and I want to make sure I work those in right so I don't get double booked on any of these appointments really easy to do. I just have to make a point that every appointment I have I need to put into the calendar. I know I have an appointment with the dentist but I don't have a record of it anywhere so one of the first things I got to do tomorrow is find out when that appointment is and get that on the calendar and so it's not messing up any of my other scheduled events.

I know it's kind of strange but I make a point of every morning at some point that I run down to the common area and check out the giveaway table just to see who or what's been offered during the night and early morning. Yesterday there had been a major event in the room took up the middle of the whole day. But I was impressed to see a fairly large amount of cake on the countertop when I got there this morning. It was actually the remains of two cakes a white cake and a chocolate. I really didn't need a cake though I'd really like a cake so I left it there came back two or three times during the day and it was still there. Finally around 4:30 this afternoon I went again and decided I was going to take a plate down and harvest me some chocolate cake which I did and it's great. Now I plan to let it dry out so I can have it with cold milk it's a family thing..
