Today is my 2 week anniversary… Woo-hoo…
Tomorrow is my 1st follow up, and that I’m actually happy for. Means the possibility of giving myself a quick foot, ankle, and calf massage before getting a new cast.

So I have been working from home for a week, but today I went into the office for the first time since my surgery 1 week and 6 days ago.
Catching up with everyone got extremely tiring… There was talk about bringing in food to “celebrate” my return, but it didn’t happened. We have a fairly [...]

In addition to brunch, I borrowed a toilet lifter/raise, or what ever it’s called. Getting up from or sitting down (on a toilet or otherwise) has [...]

Got out of the house today.
Started by taking a “bath”. My tub is set up so that I can sit in the tub and have my splinted leg hang over the edge. Not as relaxing as a real bath or shower, but it was nice.
Went to my daughter’s basketball scrimmage, then took 2 of my [...]

One thing I’m worried about is that my injury occurred while playing softball. I was playing softball in an effort to combat depression. I’m on depression meds, but I wanted to do something other than just the meds. You see I’ve played sports my whole life and have been generally happy.
My depression leads back about [...]

Slept though the night, so that is good.
I woke up about 6, in time to see my daughter leave for school. She’s a junior in high school and has been a tremendous help so far.
Took a pain pill and went back to sleep until my other daughter started getting ready for work about 9. She [...]
