Pain is residing.

I knew I would miss the training class at Pullman fire for renewal of CPR instructor cards. I was not feeling like I could do it sans a bunch of pain. I spent most of today again sitting in my chair with my ankle elevated. I watched more movies and relaxed. Mom got some more stuff for my house and she has been doing all my laundry.

It has been several days since my last dip. I guess that shows that I have the ability to not chew. I was a little worried I was getting too addicted to it.

I talked to John a little bit on the phone. He did not say anything about missing the training class today. I am happy about that. I wonder if he will do something special for me or not. I got a few more things organized in my room with my mom's help. She has really done a lot of things to help out with the house. It has been great having her around. She has done more to get my house in shape in the last few days than I have in a long time.

I am worried that she will find stuff I don't have well hidden. I have some magazines like Instinct, and a few other gay pride type things. If she finds those, it will be hard to deny what it means. I have thought about talking to her about it, but I am not ready to do so yet.

I stayed up and watched the Simpson's and Malcolm in the Middle. It was a pretty good and relaxing day.

The thing that happened that was a real bummer was breaking the screen on my laptop. I was using it while sitting on my recliner. I set it down and when I got out of my recliner, it rocked forward and hit the screen. It caused a bad crack and ruined the screen. I was so bummed.
