Healing feet...

Been at home for the whole long week... since the last time my colleagues came to my place on Mon, I've been trying not to reply my emails and anything else.. I've just been busy resting my feet, making sure the infection go away, taking my medication on time(I try!) and doing nothing much...

I enjoy such a lifestyle... for a workaholic, I've managed to slow down and just enjoy the simpler side of things... seeing how my nephew grows each day and learns new things in school to just having simple chats with my mom when my nephew is asleep... and the best is to be able to fall asleep in bed with the two cats in tow... life got simpler and easier...

the feet seems to be healing well... skin is becoming flaky and dry... which is actually the hardest part as dry skin tend to itch a whole lot... i've been trying very hard not to scratch... scratching breaks the new skin and makes the healing process start all over again... i've also started to apply some intensive moisturizer cream given to me at the pharmacy.. seems to be working fine for now... i do get irritated by some moisturizer as they leave a thin film of oil on my skin and my skin reacts to that... that's how sensitive my skin can be...

am going back to the doctor for a follow up session on mon.. hopefully things turn out well for me on mon... in the meantime, i'm just enjoying the little peaceful life that i am having now.. be thankful for this period even though it means no salary but i'm glad as i do believe i gained more than i lost... =)

Good Kate! I wish I could have some of that...I'm so stressed right now & it's not going away very well either! Maybe I should break a bone (that I need to actually work lol)....at work would be even better :p. Glad to hear everything is healing up & good luck on Monday!
