Second full day with no boot!  My foot has been cramping up a bit but it did that before surgery.  I walked over a mile yesterday without the boot.  I did it in two sections but did it.  I will attempt a mile tomorrow in one session.  The flexibility is returning and the ankle is getting stronger.  I think my recovery is almost done.

We went to church this morning and then took a long afternoon nap.  It has been a rainy day and a perfect day to nap.  I had slept fairly well last night but for some reason could sleep some more this afternoon.  I take sleep whenever it finds me.

I will return to Strong City tomorrow afternoon.  I have a busy week next week.  Tuesday I go to the Vo-Tech to have my teeth cleaned in the morning, Wednesday I have Physical Therapy and Thursday I am taking Jason to Topeka to have a procedure done.  Friday Kathy is coming for a ten day visit and Jim will be driving up.  I also hope to get some more of my detail house cleaning done.

Sometime next week I need to remember to go to the clinic and have a blood draw done.  I had my thyroid medication adjusted two months ago and the doctor wanted me to have it checked to see if the new dose is achieving what we needed it to.

It has been a relaxing weekend for me.  I am able to fully relax here and set aside all the busyness of my life for a bit. Maybe that is why I was able to take a long nap today.

Grateful for rainy day naps, grateful for two days without having to wear my boot, and grateful for this time with Jim.
