Argh, my body aches!
I took off my bandages day before yesterday. The most relieving were my leg stockings, it was so nice to be able to scratch my legs again. I don't think hairy legs and stockings really mix too well.
I also took off the support bandages around my groin, and the suture plaster itself. The wound is healing, a little gross looking but not inflamed or anything. Doesn't even hurt that much to touch it, I just have to make sure I don't poke it or anything. Here's hoping for zero infections!
As for how I feel in general.. I'm still mixed. I don't really feel very settled in, but maybe I just need to give it more time. Due to my circumstances it kind of feels like I am a guest here, like I'm visiting.. but at the same time, it also feels like I was just visiting the USA. It's a strange feeling, kind of a sense of not belonging. But like I said, maybe I just haven't been here long enough.
I am signing back up for Jobseeker's again, and I have my appointment on Monday.. hooray. I sure missed that. I don't know if I'm going to manage to work while I'm here, but if I am here for the long haul, hopefully I will. It would be nice to have money again. I miss that, too.
Megan has been whisked away by one of my friends today. She spent yesterday morning with my mum up the allotment. I'm happy she is getting out, and I hope she enjoys it. I can't really imagine how she feels at the moment. I don't even really know how I feel.
But, the important thing, I guess, is that I seem to be healing. I just wish I could hurry up and have my scan. I want to know what to expect, but I guess in life we never really know what to expect. You just have to roll with the punches.
Unfortunately, at the moment it hurts to roll. Ouch.
