The Bible

Here’s the translation I did of 1 Corinthians 13 for Day of Blogs:

ë???ê??? ì???람ì?˜ ë??ì???ê?? ì?œì???ì?˜ ë??ì??? í???ì???ë??ë??? ì???ëž??ì?? ì????ìœ?ë?? ì??Œë??ë??˜ëŠ?? ê??ë??ì???? ìš?ë??ëŠ?? ê??ê??ë??ê??? ë?˜ê?? Ahakoa kei ahau te mahi poropiti, a kitea ana e ahau nga mea ngaro katoa, me te matauranga katoa; ahakoa kei ahau katoa te whakapono, e taea ai te whakaneke i nga maunga, ki te kahore oku aroha, ehara rawa ahau. E ainda que distribuÃ?sse todos os meus bens para sustento dos pobres, e ainda que entregasse o meu corpo para ser queimado, e nÃ?o tivesse amor, nada disso me aproveitaria.

Very Blessed

Yes, my foot is many colors and painful to walk on right now (though I have permission to ditch my crutches inasmuch as I can put weight on my foot) but…

-a neighbor came to help me feed the cat herd
-one of my church kids came and cleaned litterboxes for me as well as her parents offering to pick up anything I needed at the store
-my pharmacist brought my order out to the car so I wouldn’t have to crutch in
-a parishioner is picking up Jon so I don’t have to drive tomorrow
-my co-workers fetched paperwork, my lunch, and other things so I didn’t have to try and maneuver on crutches too much
-my boss taught me how to do stairs on crutches so I’d be safe at home

I seriously have people who have helped me out in the last few days and I do feel incredibly blessed.

This *WOULD* Happen The Week Jon is Gone…

Last night, I stepped down wrong on my left foot… and fractured my ankle/foot. Thankfully, it’s not my driving foot so I was able to get myself to the ER where they took x-rays… and told me that they couldn’t get them read until tomorrow so I’d be in a splint until then. (The splint was the back half of a cast with ACE bandages holding it on.)

I went in today and they told me that it was a fracture and to stay completely off of it for the next two days. I asked them to remove the bleeping splint so I now have a lace-up brace that compresses it as well as crutches which I HATE.

This peripatetic lepicat is not happy to say the least. The only upside: I found out that my co-workers were speculating on whether it was a kickboxing injury and how exactly I’d done it if it was indeed taebo/kickboxing-related.

Day of Blogs

Some of you know that I’m the organizer (or at least the head one) for Day of Blogs which is an alternative to Blogathon this year. As I’ve been wrapped up in a whole lot of things like having surgery, trying to figure out how to run the event, and that lovely 50+ hours a week I spend away from the house working, I haven’t had time to beg for sponsors.

So…..

Pleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleaseplease sponsor me!!!!!!!!!

My Day of Blogs site is http://khouria.wordpress.com. My charity is First Book so I’ll be writing about books (of course).

First Book was also kind enough to let me guest blog

The 411 on Life Lately

[+] I had a septoplasty on July 7th in Kalispell. I was really blessed to have people to stay with the night before and the night after the surgery as well as people to sit with Jon while I was in surgery and to pray with me before I went in. I had an AWESOME anesthesiologist with a sense of humor and actually very little pain for the first three days after the surgery.

[+] We got stuck in Browning with a coolant issue on the way home from Kalispell and happened across some awesome guys who fixed things enough for us to get home… for $20. (This is about 1/10 of what it would have cost to take it to our mechanic.) When we did take it in, there were simple fixes: a new coolant reservoir and a new jumbo fuse which also made my horn, my radio, and a few other cool things work for the first time since I bought the car. Score!

[+] I spent the week of surgery off of work (on my boss’ advice) and it was a time of sporadic sleep (it’s hard to sleep after a septoplasty because you have so much crud in your nose) as well as getting stuff up for Day of Blogs (the alternative blogathon that I’m helping to organize and blogging in next Saturday).

[+] I had my sutures and splints removed in Kalispell last Tuesday which was excruciatingly painful because of all the nerve endings in the nose as well as stuff getting hung up inside my nasal cavity. I’ll refrain from describing the other scab/blood/snot removed from my nasal cavity except to say that I’m amazed at how much can fit in there. Having to have the impressions redone for my night guard was easy in comparison even though not being able to breathe through my nose made me vomit.

Update on the Nose

I can sneeze again!!!!

Tasting and smelling are still problems (thanks congestion and crud stuck in there) but hey… I can deal with that!
