Sparkling Snow

Chloe and I got glitter all over the living room rug this afternoon. We were making Christmas cards, gluing glitter on the wrapping paper I picked up today, and she wanted to mix all of the colours together to make a rainbow of glitter. I shrugged and gave her a little Dixie cup to mix the glitter in. The downside? Several of the packs of glitter were still sealed in their original plastic baggies, and when we opened them, glitter showered all over us. It was like a sparkling snow storm. I don’t know why this happened with four packs of glitter, but it did. Those pull tabs are useless. I checked the packaging and the baggies weren’t confetti.

I got some of my release last night. It didn’t last very long. We were both tired and I was in some pain and discomfort from my back issues. No getting off for me. Maybe tomorrow?

I refilled my prescriptions today. Four more bottles of pain relief bliss. I am going to see my doctor tomorrow and go from there. I need some more x-rays because I am feeling better. I may have healed. I can sit up. I can walk. I don’t dread driving around or getting in and out of the car. If you’re interested in the medicines that I take, there’s a good description of them here. I hope I’m getting better, healing. This long, hard road through recovery was pretty intense. I appreciate all those who have been there for me.

My plans through Manchester fell through today. I was saddened by this, but it just wasn’t meant to be. I want to help my relatives, but I cannot do this if they do not cooperate with me. I am ok with this.

I’m going to write therapeutically tonight, maybe hook up the Wii and play some good games for a little while. It’s so quiet around here at night lately. The kids are being good, falling asleep at night, sleeping through the night. It almost feels like I’m in an alternate reality, a dream. That I am going to wake up from this dream and nothing will have changed.
