I love my cats. I love my cats.
I'm gonna slap the furry fuckers. I'm gonna.... 😖
They started at 5 a.m. Smitty jumping on the bed. Pouncing on me, stepping on my hand. Yeah, the right hand with the finger that had surgery less than a week ago. Of course. 😡
Then Maddie bonked her head, hard against the same finger. I tucked my hand back under the covers. She walked on top of it. 😡
They both walked above my head on the pillow, pulling my hair.
Is there a bad batch of catnip in the air? 😒
@see_the_sus Which joint on which finger? If the joint closest to the finger nail, I may have an improvised protector recommendation, IF you have a cake decorating tool with funnel shaped nozzle for the bag. Weird, but necessity is often the mother of invention, a mean mother, sure, but sometimes....
Yep, the top knuckle. Unfortunately, I don't have anything like that. Not much of a cake decorator gal. 😆
I'm going to call the nurse that I spoke with yesterday and see if I can stop by to get something I can wear at night.
You'll love this. I called the office and the nurse told me that it'd be better if I went to a pharmacy to get a splint because if I went back to them to get it, they couldn't ensure that my insurance would pay for it. 😡
So, I went to Walgreens, bought a finger splint, and trimmed off some of the thick sponge because really all I needed was just a hard barrier so that when I bonk it, (like I did this morning in my car and damn near fainted from the pain), it'll be protected.
@see_the_sus Pissy insurance companies! They don't acknowledge that to facilitate healing of finger injuries or surgeries, immobilizing the area around incision or cut is critical for a few days. Penny wise, pound foolish, they scoop up pennies while setting themselves up to pay for more costly complications by ignoring the full treatment of a situation.
Greedy bastards are also ignorant fools.
Glad your boo boo is gonna be protected!
I had my therapy session last night and one of the first things I started yelling about (what a way to start out a session), was about this fucking country and how I wish I had been better at saving when I was younger because I've wanted to get away from the US for decades.
