Weekend in Review

On Saturday, Jen went home and I started PT with my new therapist in a closer location. I took another fall on Friday night that hurt so bad. Therefore, we couldn't do a lot in PT. He massaged the surrounding soft tissues a bit and did some passive ROM. My aunt came for a visit …

Fun Distractions

Happy Friday all! I have a good friend who is in town from LA to keep me company and to help me out for a couple days. Lots of hanging out in bed, laughter, Lucy snuggles, eating take out, tv watching, working, researching home improvement jobs, wedding dress shopping and house hunting. Thanks Jen! So much …

One Month!

Happy One Month to me!!! I'm 4 weeks post-op from my PAO and arthroscopy today. Sometimes I can't believe that that amount of time has gone by and other times I know I've felt every single minute go by. I am still pretty bed bound, but I do try to do an outing here and …

Just one of those days

Today is just one of those days. Everything isn't bad, but I sure can't say it's particularly good either. I woke up before any alarms were going off and before I usually have been waking up since I've had the surgery. And boy was I grumpy! I don't remember having a bad dream, but I …

Bumps in the road called recovery

  Recovery is rough. There are ups and downs. I'm trying to remember that good things come from hardships. It's so incredibly frustrating being at the mercy of everyone else. So many mantras right now! *I'm learning to let things go. *Taking victory in small achievements. I came across this quote today and it is …

Malas

My mom booked her flight home. She'll have been here for almost three weeks. I'm pretty scared for her to go, but I know I will be ok. We ran some errands so I don't have to use an Uber when she's gone. I've been wanting to make a mala bracelet so we went to …
