Progress

On Friday we had many visitors and we played DD with some people from Kuopio. It was nice and surprising, as Tarmo had said that this game would be held on Sunday and was still at work when one of the players appeared on our door :D But it was fun.
During the night I woke up to this stinging and burning pain, it felt like my wounds had been moved and retracted. It was awful but luckily it went by after few minutes or so.

The next day the wounds kept prickling but the burn didn't come back. I also started to keep the wounds free of bandages or skin tapes to give some air to them. They don't look as gross anymore, the wounds are quite clean and have started to close. On Saturday I watched Dude, where's my car and didn't like it, at all. Though I could already guess that before I even started, I know those kinds of movies don't amuse me. Well, I just needed to kill some time as I was waiting for Tarmo to finish his work so that he could be with me :) It was so nice that I didn't need to be alone and that he was there to help me. He made chiang mae soup for us (coconut milk with red curry paste and chicken and noodles) and it was really good. We also played some DD, I made up a small mission for his bad guy. And the we watched Lord of The Rings, the Fellowship of the Ring. We have watched those movies so many times together, but I really like LOTR movies and we both felt like watching that after playing DD.
The night before I wanted to try to sleep on my side but it felt bad on my wounds, the bandage I put on was too thin. So I tried again and put the same bandages I had during the first days and now I could sleep on my side! Though I had to keep my other leg under the disabled leg to keep it off the "ground" so it wasn't so natural. So eventually I returned to sleep on my back but I had left the pillow away so I could sleep and keep my leg straight!

I have also progressed in the physiotherapy in a way that I can make the exercises better and I can almost bend my knee to 90 degrees and now straight too, and I should be able to do that wholly in a week! Because then I should start my physiotherapy with the therapist and I couldn't progress in that if I couldn't bend my knee and get it straight. And I was so worried that what if I can't bend my knee :) I guess the good muscles of mine are worth while now :)

And today I woke up too early considering it's Sunday. Pollo made some noise at 7 am and I couldn't fall asleep after I woke up. I also woke up Tarmo (though didn't want to but I really cannot get up from the bed in a subtle way :D) and told him to continue sleeping. He asked if I needed him to bring me a bottle of water so that I could take the meds I have in the livingroom but I told him I would figure out something. Then I came here (went to toilet first) and accidentally turned on our PS3 as I was trying to get my laptop and as our projector wasn't on I couldn't see anything and Tarmo asked what was I doing :D I just laughed and said that I turned on the PS3 accidentally (our speakers were onso it made noise) and now couldn't turn it off (I had also turned on the projector during this time and it makes really annoying and loud peeping noise) and he just laughed at me that he thought so, and sad he'd turn it off after he'd get up. I know it can be turned off by pushing the PS button for long but somehow that didn't work and also for some reason the projector showed no signal...

Well, that was my event rich morning. Luckily Tarmo hasn't got up yet so I guess he fell back asleep. I'm starting to get hungry but even if I could manage to get something for myself, I couldn't bring it here without making noise. Luckily it's not bad hunger yet so I can wait and let Tarmo sleep.

I planned yesterday some of the paint options for our new house, but yet again, more about that later :) I'm going to make a post of its own about this :P I also should put some really nice pics of my wounds here but I don't know where my cameras cord is and have been too lazy to search it. My leg still swells a bit and doesn't feel really good when I put it down.

But I guess I could watch Disney cartoon Hercules while waiting for Tarmo to wake up :)
