I've spent most of the day in bed. I've been sore around my neck and shoulders mostly and the meds are making me groggy. My mom came over to see me and check on me this morning. She took my white shirt so that she could get the blood out of it. Michael's mom called to check up on me too.

I did manage to get the dirty clothes sorted and Michael said he'd do laundry. I don't usually let him touch the washer and dryer, but right now I don't care. I'm too sore and tired to worry about it much.

The kids have spent most of the afternoon either outside or next door playing with our neighbor's granddaughter. They love to go over there and play. Our neighbor called a little while ago and asked if they could stay over there to eat supper. I guess the kids told her about my accident. She was very kind and caring about it all.

I don't know what Michael and I will do about supper, but I'm sure we'll figure something out. Right now my eye lids are getting heavy again. That keeps happening. I am awake for a while and then all of a sudden I can't keep my eyes open. I need to take a shower, though. I did not take one last night because the doctor that did my stitches said I could not shower for 24 hours after the stitches were put in, so I feel really gross right now.
