is counting down the hours ...

oh i am ... 7 1/2 weeks ive had this cast on and its driven me nuts .. especially with all this rain we've had!!! have only two coats that i can get my hand through .. and ones a big thick winter coat and the other a thin waterproof jacket which ive been wearing all the time but which means that my jeans or trousers im wearing gets soaked .. so ive been hiding in the house most of the time and i been getting cabin fever!!!

I know what im taking with me to the hospital tomorrow .. some handcream or lotion.. Its like dandruff coming out of the cast .. all my skin has gone dry and peeling and its itching under there .. and as soon as they cut it off the creams being rubbed in .. theres so much coming out of it i dont know how many layers its rubbed off ...

and the spugsters been scaring me ... saying you sure you'll get the cast off they might put another 1 one or even leave this one on!!! He said this the last time when i went .. and it came true .. they did put another one on and told me to come back in 5 weeks ... but i dont want another one to go on ... its my birthday next week .. i dont want to have a cast on my birthday .. would you ...

so keep your fingers crossed that everything goes right for me tomorrow .. its another early morning for me as well ... so wi any luck i'll be cast free tomorrow .. im hoping ..

why does everyone do this.................hint there birthday is coming up then say but i don't want anything
lets hope everything is healing nicely and you don't need another cast on
if you do have to have another cast because of what spuggie has said i am sure we can arrange for him to have a cast fitted ..........round his head
