Been edgy & want to move my foot/ankle SO bad. Sometimes it falls asleep being in the same position. Yes, I keep it elevated & yes I'm still utilizing the cold compression but my goodness!..I almost can't stand it being in the same position for so long. I try to bend my knee & sit on my left side as much as I can with stand it. I can't wait for Dr. Lee to take all this stuff off my leg tomorrow...at least he said he would. It's heavy & I just want to let my foot breathe for a minute.
My routine has been: I have breakfast in bed, get washed up & dressed & come sit/lay on the couch downstairs. Thrilling, isn't it! Gross alert: "went" again today. woohoo.
Really felt cabin fever today. Brian borrowed a wheel chair from the office. The plan was to take a little stroll down the block or walking/jogging path in the back of the house but there was a dust storm warning. Decided to go for just a few..I needed to get out. Man, was it dusty! In just the 30 minutes or so we were out there, my phone had a film of dust on it. The pics almost don't do it justice.
We were also talking today with my boy about his first football game...IT'S THIS FRIDAY!! Oh no! I can't miss his games!! My husband wants to ask the doctor if it's ok that I go...yea yea. :/ I'll be so sad if I can't go to his first game. I don't know if it's the meds but I've been more sensitive lately. My husband showed me a video today on a college coach playing a prank on his players. It reminded me of how my son is already a senior. My baby! Instantly my eyes filled with tears. Sigh. Got to be the meds, right!
(I mentioned in a previous blog how I decorated before my surgery for Halloween & Fall...I wasn't kidding)
