Things have been going very nicely. I kicked my crutches to the curb a few days ago. Only using them on outings where I might be knocked into. I don't walk perfectly yet, but it's getting better!
Since last weekend, I've been taking it pretty easily. Sweetie usually comes over on his day off and we just laze around. My first outing was with Sweetie last Tuesday to the Verizon store. His phone was acting up, so we went to Verizon to see what they could do for us. We alllllmost walked out of the store with a new phone, but decided against it. He's gonna try and stretch it out a tiny bit longer.
After the Verizon store, nothing could stop me! Wednesday I went to go see everyone at the Office and Doc took out my sutures. It was so nice to get them taken out! I had to tell Doc how to do it though. Dr. Sampson decided to do a continuous suture, and it kinda puzzled Doc for a minute. Then Thursday I went with Mom to the car dealership where she and Dad had just purchased a new car to go pick it up. That was fun! Who doesn't love the new car smell?!
Friday kicked off the weekend. Sweetie came over and we stopped by the office to pick up something for Wifey. We headed off to the post office to mail some disability stuff. After that, we went to Walgreen's to pick up a prescription for me. Then we headed out for dinner! We decided to go to Shirasoni. Which is a teppanyaki restaurant here. Sweetie is the Benihana king. So he was comparing everything from the ambiance to the menu choices to the actual taste of the food. He liked it all in all, so that was good! After dinner, I was tired and we came back to my house and watched a couple movies. It was nice!
Woke up the next morning and got ready to go to Wifey's. Sweetie got here early and I still wasn't ready. I forgot that I had to get on the stationary bicycle. I did 20 minutes that morning. I've had to add on 5 minutes every day as tolerated. We finally left for Wifey's and met her at a Starbucks to get my fix. I hadn't had one since before my surgery! We didn't do too much. She just made bows for her Sweet Pea Swank. We had a nice dinner that she cooked for us and relaxed and watched a movie!
Yesterday was lazy. I finished reading Wicked. I was glad to be finished. Sweetie and I went to see the play back in April and I really enjoyed it. I thought the book would also be good, but it wasn't as great as I thought it would be. I was glad I finished it though. Today, is also lazy. Seems to be a running theme. Lately, I've been sorting my digital pictures. I'll move onto my print pictures soon enough. Scrap booking is a goal of mine this next 10 weeks I'm off. So. We'll see what I actually get done...
