Ohhhh... Pain

[julie at menloparkrandd.com (julie@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)]

I like my veggies, just hard to keep the wheel chair still.... Ohhhh now that wan't PC.....
The doc cut the nail and scrubbed the area with that red stuff they use (the name escapes me at the moment). New bandage 2x today with basitracin. And really cute condoms to cover the bandage (must be fit for a military officer)....
This sanding HAS got to be the worst part. For better or worse, it'll get done. Hopefully before the winter gets here....
