Home is wonderful! I haven't had to cook because of the wonderful meals being delivered. I spent Friday like a Queen with friends stopping by and entertaining me. I was doing so well I even walked from the bathroom to the living room without my walker. All I needed to do was get home and I'm cured!
Saturday I decided I was going to go the whole day without the walker. I started with a shower (because I can!), did my hand exercises, and cleaned the kitchen. That wasn't much but I shouldn't overdo it so I sat down to rest and called a friend. While chatting on the phone I realized I couldn't pick up my Diet Coke. Those of you that know me know the significance of me not being able to drink my Diet Coke in the morning. I have to say it scared me a bit. Luckily the friend I was talking to was also a neighbor and she rushed right over and put a straw in my Diet Coke for me. I have the best friends!
She also helped me get to bed and I stayed there the rest of the day, not able to move my arms or legs. Clearly this Energy Conservation will be my biggest challenge. Bruce and Emily cleaned the garage so if I'm ever able to drive my car again it won't be covered in snow; and I am once again back to being treated like a Queen with Bruce making me dinner and both of them entertaining me! I am very lucky indeed.
Hang in there, Friend! You're doing a great job! :)
