Friday

Well, the recovery is moving at a snail's pace - just ask Tim, he'll tell you that himself.

He got sick last night. I think it was his body's way of removing the anesthesia and Vicodin, he isn't so sure. However, there was no fever and he was able to sleep all night. He ate a decent breakfast this morning so I think he is OK. His right eye is still swollen and that is where his headache resides. I wish I could cast a magic spell and make him better now :-)

We just spoke to his manager and his HR group and he officially applied for short-term disability. Although his visions of grandeur of going back to work on Monday were taken away from him, I think he is ok with it. There is NO WAY he could go back to work then. He doesn't even get the staples out til Tuesday or Wednesday. He isn't allowed to lift more than 10 lbs for 6 weeks. Any idea how much a 5 gallon pain bucket weighs? Me either, but it isn't less than 10 lbs. His boss is GREAT and is so understanding about everything. He is even going to come over tomorrow to visit for a bit.

Well, that is my story for now and I'm sticking to it.
