Bored, bored, bored

I'm out of my mind, bored shitless. Since my little mishap just over two weeks ago, I haven't been able to take myself out because I can't drive. Ex has been quite good, taking us out for dinner when we request it because I can't cook either - tried it, it hurts and one handed just doesn't produce the results I need - and it hurts. So, he takes us for drives, for dinner, for shopping if we need too, but it's not the same as being independent and I really don't like being dependent on him. I'd rather sit home and watch bad tv than ask him to do something for me -not that he wouldn't, but then doing things together always seems to create the opportunity for him to 'lecture' me on some point or other - these days, even though he says he doesn't want to, it's about how I'm not being proactive enough with organising our meals with my mother in law - even though we're happy with the arrangement we have, he seems to think there's something I'm not doing and I don't know what it is.

Uggh I'm so tired. So all I want to do is browse, sit, eat and sleep. Not good for my health or my mind. Maybe I'll feel better on Tuesday when i can take this cast thingy off. It's getting really tedious.

Helen Keller produced this little gem written for people like me?
Actually I think she was specifically targetting me!

"We could never learn to be brave and patient, if there were only joy in the world".

Yes your choice is to ponder her words OR if you were like me just want Tuesday to come tomorrow, maybe today or even yesterday.

Too many Helens in the world.
