I don't have any ice, but I've got a gigantic bag of frozen tomato puree (from our tomatoes*) on my foot. I don't feel any of the cold getting through the thick tape-plaster-ace bandage. Maybe some vitamin C is seeping in.
I'm feeling a little bit abandoned, even though my bf's mom had some surgery on a couple of her vertebrae today (and a biopsy) and she's having chemo tomorrow. He's an only child. There's NO one else to be with her who can take his place. I know that. But I still feel a little sad being here by myself.
_____________ *There's a story associated with the tomato puree, but I'm too tired to tell it right now. Maybe tomorrow.
