Another day closer to being crutch free! I stayed home all day today. Did my foot exercises this morning and took a 3/4 mile walk. My foot was a bit sore last night but has been quiet today.

Took another 3/4 mile walk tonight. It is so good to be outside moving my body. I was going to go for a one mile walk tonight but Jim talked me out of it.

Starting a new knitting project today. My arms and shoulders are sore from the knitting I did today. I haven’t done much knitting lately and those muscles have gone weak. I’ll switch to embroidery work the rest of the night and give those muscles a chance to rest.

Tried making a pork loin for dinner. I didn’t care for it as it was too chewy. I probably over cooked it. I rarely cook pork. The flavor was good but it took forever to chew.

Got a text from the guy that is going to redo my retaining wall. He is delivering the fill rocks next week. That must mean he is getting close to coming and doing the work. Yay!

It has been a nice, quiet day at Jim’s house. I needed a day with not much going on. Tomorrow will be another quiet day too. Love days when I get to stay home all day and have lots of empty space.

Grateful for being able to get out and walk a couple time a day, grateful for knitting that keeps my hands busy, and grateful for empty space that allows me to refill my soul.
