today is my day in bed. drinking hot chocolate with mini marshmellows and typing away on my laptop.

 

my pain is just unbearable at the moment and every time i move it feels like i've broken something. i've dislodged 3 ribs and my knee cap already this morning. lucky the nurse came around and was able to help. i have home nurse that comes around every day to help with simple tasks that i need help with an some times she will put in a joint or two. her duaghters son has a joint problem but its not eds so she knows what she is doing and she is very nice.

 

dad is busy setting up a tv for me to watch an i've set my bed in a very nice position so not to hurt me (i have a bed that is similar to a hospital bed) and its in prime position of the tv, lol. he's also setting up a heater in my room an my heated blanket will be on low. as i find the cold hurts my  body a lot more then summer does an its winter here in Aus, plus there is snow  and that makes the pain so much worse (live about a min away from the blue mountains) not that i am complaining because i love how every were gets covered in this blanket of whiteness and it looks so warm.

 

mum is busy making a warm chocolate tart for after our roast lunch since we are having people over. great just what i need but lucky for me, my parents have told me i can stay in my bed but i must come down to say hello, other wise i get to stay in my warm room and eat lunch on the tray table thing dad has. i might see if i can get him to set up the dvd near the bed and also the playstation 2.

 

i'm going to buy a new bed cover that will make the bed a little more softer since its still far to hard. maybe i should try a water bed but i cant really have anything heated and i cant sleep with my back straight plus i get sea sick so thats probably a bad idea. so that would make things a bit hard i guess. i dont know how kazza manages to sleep on a normal hard bed.

 

my dad has pre-booked me a gold movie ticket to see new moon when it comes out!! i cant believe it!! dad said it was an early christmas present, lol. plus he has a spare so i can take someone with me. i think its because he just wants to make me feel special since i've hardly been out, lol. but those tickets cost around $100 or so.

 

now i'm going to go have a long hot bath and then get in to my pre heated pj's and enjoy the rest of my lazy afternoon in bed and say hi to our visitors, lol.
