So I think it's time for an update, what do you think?!
What has been going on with me, you ask? Well I'm actually getting pretty busy lately. I start back up at work again on Thursday! I'm closing with Krista and getting right back to training so I'm really excited about that. I haven't been to work in over 2 months... I hope things come back to me pretty quickly.
I'm down to 1 pain pill a day (But I have a feeling I'll be back to 2 now that I'm doing PT (Physical Therapy) 3X a week. I was getting kinda scared of my pain pills because I think my body was starting to react in a bad way to them. I would wake up in the middle of the night, about the same time each night and have little "freak out" moments. I would throw my blankets around, push my pillows on the floor,toss and turn for at least an hour, and I would get something on my mind (i.e work, recover from surgery, the wedding) and I would start to panic about little things and my mind would be racing at top speeds.... it was kinda scary. And if I didn't take a pain pill before bed, it was even worse.
But last night was the second night in a row I slept pretty well, so lets keep fingers crossed that it gets better from here on out.
Like I said before, I started PT today!! I think it went really well and I'm kind sore now so I think that's a good sign. I'm going 3X a week for the next 3 weeks so we'll see how far I come in the next month! We really just did tests today and core exercises. Later on we'll be doing more strengthening exercises, weight bearing, and ROM workouts. And for now I do have homework to do and I can still use a recumbent bike as much as I can without it hurting. I'm excited to see what happens!
Wedding stuff is still coming along. We are at 180 days and counting! Woohoo! The main things we still need are plans for the cake, flowers, and decorations / centerpieces. I think I finally chose the color(s)!! Our wedding coordinator has been very helpful and has given us many ideas with all the little details.
I think I'm starting to get Spring Fever! I want to clean and organize really badly.. the only hard thing is cleaning on crutches is a really big challenge. Actually doing ANYTHING on crutches is a challenge... I'm still going to try to do some cleaning but I might have to wait until next months before I can really attack my closets!
I'm so ready to be back on my feet so I can go out and take pictures again. I'm getting antsy to get back out there and continue to snap pictures of spring in action! I want to edit pictures again but I haven't really been able to get around in the snow very well..
Ok well I still have to eat lunch and then my mom and I are headed out to see a movie this afternoon...
love!
