Briefly...

Today is the first time since May 10th 

that I left the house without crutches.

I took a cab to PT and back again.

PT is good but ouch, atrophied muscles 

hurt when one is using them after weeks of

non-use.

I had to rest after coming back home and

having a late lunch.

Tomorrow I get to be home all day

and I plan on resting, doing my PT and enjoying 

the quiet.

I am thankful for the progress and 

it's so wonderful to be able to stand up

and walk! Even if walking is often a bit painful...

it's still such a joy and a privilege! 

Standing, Standing...and walking! and baking!

I got the shoe lift yesterday in the mail,

after PT and I have been mainly walking without crutches 

ever since.... (it is still painful at times but worth it).

So today I baked for the first time!

A bit of a small one bowl wonder recipe! 

I hope to bake another on soon!

And the toaster oven = not so hot house!

I also did a card and origami puppy dog for a 

young sweet girl I know! 

And tonight I went to vespers for St Herman

*by myself* 

(took a cab there...that's often how I got there pre-injury).

So that was quite wonderful.

I go back to PT again tomorrow.

My foot muscles are still really tight/stiff.

Lots of work yet to be done.

And hopefully I get a better air cast/boot soon too, 

been having some problems with the one I have.

Husband brought me home 3 roses!

Don't they look so pretty with my new table runner

from my quilting-friend?

It's so nice to have some good things to report today!
