Oh, gosh, so much, because I've been home-bound, and haven't been to the office -- and when I'm going into work, I really suit up, styling my hair, doing the whole make-up thing, putting on nice clothes.
I need a hair cut, which I haven't had since December, and highlights, which have all grown out, since I haven't gotten them since late last summer.
I need a manicure and a pedicure. I've been afraid to let the nail technicians scrub and massage my injured leg. One spot at the front of my shin is tender -- it's where the pointy tips of the two enormous screws through my lower shinbone make two bumps underneath the skin. I hate the idea of someone touching that.
And I need to put on nice clothes -- on my whole body. I've been sitting here with decent blouses and sweaters up top, for my laptop's video cam, but down underneath, it's always black nylon workout pants for physical therapy or post-work gym sessions.
I don't know how long it will be before I dare to wear cute shoes, but I think it will take several months, since I really lurch and trip a lot when I walk.
I would love to get back a decent upper body, and wear sleeveless shirts again.
