Today has been like so:

Wake up

Go to church

Painkillers wear off

Have lunch

Watch Cranford

Go to Tom Thumb

Try to go to Siegels but discover that it’s closed (duh)

Watch more Cranford

Eat dinner

Go to the pool

The good news about it all is that I haven’t run a fever today (which is miraculous) and I am now feeling pretty good. I think this is mostly due to the fact that I haven’t done a blessed worthwhile thing today but sit on the couch and be served by Sister and Joey. WHEN WILL I BE HEALED?!!

Oh, speaking of Scar…it’s starting to close up pretty good and it completely wigs me out.

Indeed, it is true. Sister has arrived from Chicago, and at this very moment, she is making Mrs. D bread in my kitchen, and has just finished making Shepherd’s Pie, which we shall eat for lunch tomorrow.

I am exceptionally glad that Sister is here now.

Our next project is to watch tons and tons of BBC period dramas, Sister brought like 72 hours worth of them with her. (I’m not sure how she got them through security, but she did.) We’re currently deciding between watching Cranford or North & South, both adaptations of Elizabeth Gaskill novels, of course.

Sister says I will like Cranford better, as North & South is kind of dark. And I did cry (sob, actually) somewhere between 3-4 times during Up last night…so maybe we better stick with Cranford…

Poor Sister. She’s cleaning my kitchen right now.
