Yuck!

this post is a couple of weeks old...
 
I spent some wonderful time with my family.  It was just fabulous and I had lots and lots of fun.  We played all sorts of games, including Old Yucky, who likes to eat things like moldy bread dipped in sour milk and mixed with rotten eggs and broken glass.  We played Flo’s Diner with Jake the Trucker and Jake the Daughter.  Flo makes the best soap coffee this side of the Mississippi.  Later, Amelia Earhart began making appearances at the diner.

I recently had some more scar tissue break up in my pelvis (there has been lots of that during this recovery).  It seems to have made a significant difference, as if it may have been some of the last problematic scar tissue in the pelvis…I am having less muscle spasms and they are not being triggered as easily.  I’ve been able to move around a little more easily.  I’m very excited!

It took a few days for my brain to adjust to being by myself again.  For a couple of days, I felt anxious and depressed and didn’t do as many physical therapy exercises or read or listen to much.  I am feeling better now, thankfully.

Speaking of reading, I really like talking with Jen about reading and books.  And, wow, did we read a lot of books with Aida!  She enjoys it immensely.  It seems like there are really a lot of good children’s books.  I think I like a lot of them more than many adult books.
