Catching up on reading

So I started eating solid food again this past week - it still hurts but at least my stomach has something to digest.

While recuperating, I've started reading Teaching the Sick: A Manual of Occupational Therapy and Re-education by George Barton (one of the founders of OT) and Reconstruction Therapy by William Dunton (another founder and considered the father of OT). They're both interesting reads and gives great insight into our profession.

P.S. I love Google books! :)

Tonsils are gone!

Almost forgot to mention, had those suckers taken out yesterday, stayed overnight, came home today. Yeah, my throat is sore and it hurts to swallow but overall it hasn't been so bad. However, my ENT did warn me that there's a chance that it'll get worse in the next couple of days. Yay! I can't wait.

In case anyone was wondering, my tonsils were the size of golf balls. But then again, I don't know what size they should be in the first place.

Remote for Seniors

Saw this Senior Remote on Instructables via Boing Boing and I'm thinking I might have to give soldering a go just to make this. Of course this would just be No.1000 on my list of 1000 things to do.
