...Don't Say Anything at All

Hello, Everybody.

So, I'm sure you've all noticed that I've been off the posting lately.  That's because I've been following the old adage of "If you can't find something nice to say...(title of post)".  I've not had anything positive to say this week and I feel like, if I post negative stuff, people will think I'm fishing for compliments or something.  But it's been quite a while now and I feel like I should be posting something.

Nothing horrible has happened for me to be negative about, but nothing (I feel is) positive has either.  I'm on yet another week of antibiotics because of that draining fistula.  Dr Movahed said he may have to debride it Monday.  That will require a novacaine shot and the rather nasty cleaning up of the area.  Yay.  I was told that I needed to take the week off rehab because the muscles in my face are all tight and spasmed and I'd just make things worse by trying to work them.  So that's one more week of scar tissue growing that will reduce my chances of a near-normal recovery.  And my muscle are still tight and spasmed  I have a bracket of my braces that has fallen off and they can't fix it right now because I can't open my mouth enough for them to get back to it.  So they changed the pattern of my elastics and it's really tight and causing pain in my jaw and I'm clenching my teeth because it's so tight. I'm not sleeping worth a damn and "eating" is getting to be more of a battle everyday.  Over all, I am not a happy camper.  But it is what it is.  I see both Dr Movahed and Dr Keller on Monday and we'll see what can be done to get things back on track.  And I've had a sore throat for the last few days and I'm really afraid of getting sick.  I've been trying to rest a lot and hope I don't actually get sick. *fingers crossed*

On a different note, we discovered that the new "The Muppets" (2011) movie isn't nearly as good as "Muppets Most Wanted" (2014) but that you really need to see "The Muppets" for "Muppets Most Wanted" to make sense.  We discovered this by watching them out of order.  If you haven't already seen them, we recommend sacrificing the time for the "The Muppets" to help with enjoying "Muppets Most Wanted".

And now, something to try to counteract all the negative: nostalgia!

  1. I get you. Sometimes I don't want to tell people things because I feel like I am trawling for sympathy. Sometimes I just want to say "I feel sad" and not get a bajillion responses of "Hugs!"

    Though sometimes I do want people to tell me "hugs" and just don't wanna admit it.

    1. I certainly not saying I don't want "Hugs!", I just feel like I'm fishing for them if I put out negative stuff. On the other had, I promised myself I would be honest with this blog so I really should say what is there to be said. Does that make sense? If so, could you explain it to me?

  2. So, did the docs come up with anything brilliant?
