They Call Me Mellow Yellow
Well, I'm not sure that Alex would actually call me mellow but I'm definitely yellow today. My bruises are turning the color of the rainbow which is always a good sign and I'm now moving into the lighter spectrum of the healing process. I'm still swollen around the nose and cheek and noticed that my lip is swollen just enough to be almost sexy - wish it was permanent and also on both sides of the mouth (I'm looking somewhat lopsided at the moment). I had my stitches removed this afternoon and as usual I wussed out and got all hot and bothered to the point they had to stop and get me some cold water. It was quite painful but I'm glad it's all over and now I can just forget about it all. I have to go back in 2 weeks for a final check up - maybe I should ask about a lip job?
At my doctor's suggestion I'm off for the rest of the week so I can "rest" and try to minimize the swelling. I think I should ask Alex to cook dinner and clean the house - doctor's orders.
One other thing - a filling fell out of a tooth last night but I can't go to a dentist because I can't yet open my mouth wide. If it's not one thing it's another.
