Elbow Progress Report

So, obviously, I'm back from Vermont. The trip was fairly bland. I did not get my gondola ride or my apple picking in, but I did buy a lot of new clothes. If I actually get the chance to start school, I have all the shirts I need, though I still could use more pants. I also picked up pajamas and halloween socks and underwear.

Dawn didn't seem altogether too happy this time when we were up. She was tired and had stopped taking her prenatal vitamins and iron, which was not a good thing. I don't know, I'm really worried about her. It seems like everyone has a say in her pregnancy but her and it's starting it wear her out. I hope things don't get worse after she has the baby.

I found out yesterday that I'm working the Halloween shift at work, which I wanted. All I need to do now is decide what I want to dress up as. I need to raid my prom dress selection and whip something together. I should do that soon. Blah.

My doctor's appointment for my elbow went well yesterday. I tore the capsular something or another and evidently have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, which is some sort of connective tissue disorder. Basically, it's the reason that all my joints pop out and that I get stretch marks if I breathe too hard. He told me somethings that I should try not to do and that I need to buy better shoes from now on. My elbow is going to require 6 or more weeks of therapy and them 12-16 more weeks to fully recover.

I have to hit Wal*Mart today. I have a list of things that I need to buy, plus a couple gallons of water for my mother. Yay.

Oh, and Carleigh, I <3 you, too. Things will be ok.
