One more week before I should get released from wearing my boot. I am ready!
Walked a mile tonight. Adding 1/4 mile each time I go out for a walk. Uneven surfaces still challenge me a bit but they are getting easier. Neither foot complained during or after our walk. Felt like pushing it a bit and going even farther but resisted as I don’t want to set myself back.
Got two storm windows inserted this afternoon. They are old windows and they don’t like to move back into place. I learned how to use a caulking gun and placed the caulking on the storm window frame than held it in place while Jim screwed the frame back on. Hopefully the weather is nice again tomorrow and we can get at least one more set of windows done.
Have felt a bit sad and disconnected for some reason today. Thinking it is the effect of the full moon that happens Thursday as well as the last two weeks before Winter Solstice. Allowing it to be what it is and remembering not to resist the sadness. And this too shall pass!
Tomorrow night Jim has a choir Christmas party to go to. I get to go too. We have to take some food so will need to go to the grocery store tomorrow and fix some things to take. Still not sure what we are taking.
We made chili this morning and put it in the crock pot for dinner tonight. It was really good and the house smelled really good all afternoon.
Thursday I have physical therapy again at noon. Hopefully it will be my next to last therapy session. I will find out Tuesday if I need more or not. We are going to KS Tuesday and staying until the weekend so if I need more I’ll have to see if the place in Emporia can fit me in next week and than schedule more the following week in Stillwater.
The full moon Thursday happens on 12/12 and the moon will hit 100% full at 12:12. I looked up the significance of the number 12. Wow! Maybe that is why I have felt a bit out of sorts the last two or three days. Looking forward to the new energy that the full moon brings in. I’m ready for some calm after this storm of emotion I have been feeling.
Grateful for being able to walk a mile relatively pain free, grateful for the range of emotion I can allow myself to experience, and grateful two windows are put back together again.
