I thought it was time for an update on life. This should be fun.
Wow, the summer is nearly over! I start university in a week, I’m moving in two days, I only have two more four-hour shifts left at my summer job, and half of my bed frame and desk are stained. (Oh yeah, I’m building a bed frame and desk for myself. Well, my dad is, but I’m staining it.) Everything seems to be going as planned!
Except for one minor setback. Yesterday I fractured a bone in my foot. Ha. I know, right? One tiny little bone. Lots of pain. Because of this, yesterday was a totally wasted day. I didn’t get any packing done, I only got a little bit of staining done, and I spent the entire evening in the hospital (only for them to tensor it, tell me to ice it and rest). It was kinda cool, because I got to have an x-ray and I’ve never had one of those before. And I’ve never worn a tensor before either.
This has kinda screwed up my week. It’s my right foot, so it hurts a bit to drive. I have a standing and running around job, and it hurts a bit to walk. And I’m moving… and it hurts to walk. Oh well. C’est la vie, as my francophone friends would say.
I’m excited though. I’m still going to move on Thursday. I’m still gonna at least try to go to work on Friday and Saturday. And my dad has taken over the staining, I think. (I feel bad though because he already has so much to do.) Someone might have to help me move, someone might have to drive the van with all my stuff to Winnipeg, and my mattress might have to spend a couple more nights just on the floor of my room. But that’s okay.
I’m resting today. I spent a good chunk of my morning watching The Vampire Diaries with my little brother. I’m doing some laundry and I’ll probably do some light packing today. I’ll probably get my little brother to help me with the more painful stuff, like getting the boxes into the van. He’s actually been of great help. I’m surprised.
Yes, this was an incredibly boring post. I promise the next one will be a little more action-packed! And by action-packed, I actually mean thought-provoking. Just you wait.
