OUT AND ABOUT


Yesterday friend J took me to rent a wheelchair and then we went to lunch and shopping at the toy store for a birthday present. It was good to be out. I had an emotional meltdown that morning when discovered that the doctor's office had not faxed prescription numbers for the wheelchair to wheelchair rental place. I became irrationally upset that all my planning had gone for naught and bawled. Not a rational reaction warranted by such a little snafu. The wheelchair wasn't that expensive even if I rented it myself. A sign that I am not quite emotionally stable yet behind all of my thinking that I have a good attitude.

The days outing was great and I was out of the house for about 5 hours.
Today my daughter in law and her two children flew in from a visit to her home country,
Paraguay. She had been visiting her family for about 6 weeks. So now there is more activity to break the monotony and I can get around the house better as my shoulder is becoming very sore from the walker.

No sign of crow today but Husband is cooking some eggs. They seem to like eggs and suet the best.

My foot seems to be a little less numb today. The skin is still tight. I am flexing. Up and down is easy, Side to side much more painful.


Yesterday, I started a little exercise floor routine. Leg lifts and sit ups and stretching.
