I should really be cherishing my time I have, but when your on dialysis all you want to do if get off the machine.  But i have found a few ways to kill the time, sensibly and practically.

Once hooked to my 5foot friend i start with…

1. little sleep – this took a while to master with all the goings on of the ward by having my ipod plugged in and my chair back this usually kills 45-60mins. 2.30 left
2. Listen to an album while playing games on my ipod 1.45 left
   
3. Open my CSS or javascript book and try and understand it. 45 left
   
4. then bust out the laptop, so i can practice some of my new skills DONE

then drive home eat food go to bed, then up nice n early for work!
