Went to Physical Therapy today. She had me stand on a cushion without my boot for 10 minutes doing various poses. I did well with the exercises she had me do. The only time it hurt was when she was massaging my foot and pushing the toe back and pulling it forward. She was talking to someone and forgot what she was doing once or twice. Ouch!
She laughs at me when she has me move from the table to a chair. She was impressed with my flexibility. Glad I have that going for me!
Haven’t done much other than PT today. Still working on my knitting project and finishing up the third set of tea towels. It is too hot to be outside for very long today. I’ll fix dinner in a bit as Jim is working outside mowing and finishing a porch project he has been working on.
We don’t have any plans for the weekend. Still not sure when Jim will have to head back east. I may or may not go depending on timing. I have PT Tuesday, a doctor’s appointment on Wednesday and three appointments on Thursday. After that I can get free to go with him. We will see how things go.
My foot was cranky last night and I had a restless night. I didn’t take a walk last night an am wondering if that caused my foot to be cranky. After it cools down this evening I will get my mile walk in and see if that helps for tonight. I never know why my foot gets cranky but am grateful it doesn’t happen everyday.
One disadvantage to being retired is everyday feels a bit like a holiday. We kinda forgot to make any special holiday plans for this weekend. So far we plan on having a quiet weekend at Jim’s house. He has lots of projects to work on. I’m afraid I am not very helpful as I am still on both crutches. Hard to do anything when you don’t have a free hand.
Grateful for another successful physical therapy session, grateful my foot isn’t cranky this afternoon, and grateful for quiet weekends at home.
