My recovery...

Well...I'm doing better. I try hard not to over do it each day...but's hard to keep Taz down when the Taz is so use to running around doing so much. Since I don't sleep at night it makes it even more difficult. I would have posted a picture of me with Steven and Stephanie, but I looked pretty wiped out...not a good picture.

Last night, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. John decided he needed to exercise and lose some weight. So he got out Grandpa Joe's wheelchair and told me to sit down. He was going to walk 2 miles pushing me. So I was game...but I felt every bump as he walked down Broadway to the new Target on Euclid. We did some shopping. We bought more kitchen towels for me to monogram. The food keeps coming and when they drop off the food I give them a monogrammed towel with their name on it and a thank you note. After we left Target he went up Lincoln past the old Target through the neighborhood...jay walking across Broadway (I should say jay running...caus he was running) to get to Valley street. I am just holding me stomach so that it doesn't jiggle so much! We were a sight to see.

My stomach has been so tight since last night. I don't know if that's because I was holding it so tightly. I didn't sleep well either. I took a tynenol PM to help me sleep. It worked for the first 2 hours. Then I had to use the restroom. I got up and I couldn't fall back to sleep. My body was so restless...very jittery...like I had to move and get up and not lie down. John tried to get me to come back to bed. I was on the couch. But I just couldn't get up. I finally went back to bed at 5:30 when Steven left for seminary. I slept until 9 a.m. My mom came to my room early to try and get me up. She said she would help me get up because there was going to be a flood and we had to leave now. I told her, the flood can wait...so come and lie down with me until I'm ready to get up.

Well....I sat at the computer too long...but I had work to do. I also went into work per my bosses request to do an airline ticketing and a teacher packet. Came home and did 4 more school itineraries. I have all of April through June yet to do....so I am busy. Glad I can work out of the home.!! Thanks to Baba.
