Hi Babe,
I don’t know if it’s the new pill regime or if my leg is finally starting to improve, but today was definitely a better day. I’m starting to figure out the best way to keep making progress. Rather than do all of my PT exercises at once and then sit around the rest of the day icing and taking short walks, I’m spreading them out throughout the day, so that I’m not getting anywhere near as stiff. At least it doesn’t seem like it. By doing an exercise, then icing, then doing another exercise or walking, I felt much better by the end of the day. I felt great in the morning, even feeding the horses and getting my own ice from Jeff’s. He left in the early afternoon for the Gator Nationals in Gainesville, borrowing James’ truck because his Bronco is having too many problems. He probably would have asked to borrow mine if he didn’t already know I needed it to move the trailer to the shop on Monday, and if the schedule had been any different I would have been glad to do it, but it didn’t work out that way. I kept doing my exercises all day, and I sewed up Lola’s floating frisbee with some new material I bought so now it’s like new (she loved it, of course!), and even had the energy to feed the horses at suppertime with James, so it all worked out. I’m so glad to be feeling better. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised, knowing the first week was always going to be the worst, it can only get better from here, right? I’m going to slowly put things away over the weekend and get the trailer hooked up and ready to go on Sunday so it can be just driven out Monday morning, and keep doing my regime since it seems to be working and I feel like I can see a light at the end of the tunnel. Not much else going on, the usual reading and killing time watching TV until bedtime, so off I go! Love you, sweetie! Good night!
