Oh, the Joy!
I got to go out yesterday! Albeit to the hospital, BUT, it was out of my apartment into the beautiful sunshine. My cast needed to be redone, and the doctor said come in. I couldn’t get out of my apartment fast enough. Just getting to go on that road trip was enough to shake me out of my funk and I feel like a new person today. I have new cast on, and I still have pain, and I still get to lay around and elevate my foot. BUT, I got out and it was a great day!
The only downside of my day yesterday was the doctor wouldn’t even look at the incision to see if it was healed. I was hoping for an early release and he would tell me to go home and put some shoes on and get back to work…NOT! But, one can only hope!
In any case, I thought I would at least take a moment today to share the residual joy I feel today given my release from my apartment. I have been much more productive since getting out. Yea!!! I pray all of you in this community have an AMAZING weekend! I am going to do my best to hold on to this wonderful warm feeling. I know that there are great days ahead of me and my work will be at the church when I get back! Blessings!

Yes, agree with starshep. Keep working on the attitude and all else will fall into place. If getting out of the home was good, do it again. Everyday is better than the day before. Enjoy today and look forward to tomorrow!
