Clean Up - Clean Up

Where is Barney when you need him. I finally have a sink and the granite is all in. Wow, what a difference. I am now in the process of cleaning up the mess, washing every dish and utensil and trying to keep up with just the regular stuff. It has been 4 weeks since my knee surgery and I am doing fine. I will be glad when I can totally join the real world. I feel like I am missing out on everything, just being a little depressed I guess. This being hobbled is a whole new experience for me and I am not liking it, that is why I am such a whiner lately. This time next year it will be a fading memory and I will be back to "normal". That may not be a good thing though. Tomorrow is Halloween and I hope all the little goblins have a safe and fun time. Check out Aidens site, he is having such a great time this year. He is the cutest pirate, watch out Johnny Depp!!!!!

A Week Ago

Well, it has been exactly 1 week since my knee surgery. With nothing to compare it to, I can't say if it is going good or not. I am upset with the hospital care, but I managed to get the time when the nurses were on strike. I had my first physical therapy yesterday, not fun!!! I still hurt today from it all. I must be a big ole baby, because everytime she wanted me move one direction or another I complained. I found out also that I am not supposed to be showering. I will manage. I came home to a MAJOR renovation. I have no kitchen. Thank goodness Colleen brought dinner the day I came home, It will be cool when it gets done, but I am worried because of past history of projects. Well, I hope to see everybody soon, just not here, what a disaster zone.

Monday Monday

It is the day before surgery and I am really nervous. I hate hospitals and I know their is no easy way to do this whole thing. I try my best not to be a baby about it. Saturday I went to Drea's shower. Anna Mae will not need anything for a long time. It was good to see and visit with everybody. After that me and Rick went to Colie Dack's wedding. It was very nice, outdoors, and they did a "sand" ceremony. Instead of lighting a unity candle, they emptied colored sand into a container. Cute idea especially outdoors. Yesterday, went to go watch Alex play soccer. Aiden of course was the cutest soccer player there. He just runs and runs forever dribbling the soccer ball. Do you think he is Alex's son?? Jamie trains him also, she was showing him how to trap the ball. His favortie Aunt was there, Jill. Jill and Brandon are so cute together. Well, I will write about my adventure when I get home. My battle cry is "NO MORPHINE"
