So update time! I'm honestly surprised how well I'm coping mentally here. I thought coming back home - health problems aside - I'd be struggling to get any work done but somehow I'm striking a perfect balance. My dad took me to book a dental appointment this morning and I got seen only 3 hours later. This resulted in a referral - by the dentist who previously refused said referral - to get my problem wisdom tooth removed. This won't be at least a month unfortunately, but provided the [new] antibiotics and cold sore cream and antiseptic mouthwash that I'm using do their job, I should be better in around a week's time - just in time for mine and Jackson's 3 year anniversary <3 he's home from the skiing trip now meaning he'll want to meet up soon. With this cold sore and swollen face I'm feeling less than presentable, hence the desire to heal quickly.
But like I said, health problems aside, I'm reaching (and often exceeding) my self-assigned word counts for each day, starting around 1 or 2 in the afternoon and working through (with a break for dinner) until around 7 or 8 in the evening. Having dad cook for me is such a help too - and such a pleasure. Of course, I can't wait to see my sister again too. Haven't seen her since Christmas. And she's due home Wednesday preevening (it's a word coined by The Big Bang Theory and it is possibly the most relevant word I know). So yeah, I'm exceeding my own expectations in several ways right now and it's doing my mind a world of good. I'm going to catch another episode or two of Vampire Diaries now but I shall hopefully return with another update tomorrow.
