Crankiness = a good sign

I think we're finally on the road to healing. No pain meds at all yet today for Jaclyn and she even had the gall to ask me to go out and buy her some chocolate! (Well, who doesn't want chocolate, but we don't need it.) Then when I asked her if she'd like to have a tasty golden delicious apple, I was snubbed because I had interrupted her TV show. Hah! So...I'm taking it all as a good sign that she's healing well and starting to get bored. But when I inquired as to whether she felt ready to go to her own home, she did hesitate. ;D We're doing okay living together so far but I think next week when she gets her stitches out, I'll take her home to her own place. Maybe we'll go to the bead store to cash in the gift certificate I gave her for Christmas so she'll have something constructive to do while she continues to heal. Hopefully, she'll get creative and get a lot done with her beadwork. She really does make awfully pretty designs and is getting better all the time. (see photos of the latest work done in amethyst) I'll make sure she has lots of groceries in and check on her daily until she tells me to leave her alone.
