Day One Hundred Thirty Five - Recovery Day 8

Today was good, but all morning my incision was really acting up. It was stinging and felt irritated. Oh man and it itches all around that area. I'm trying not to scratch. When I do scratch, I never scratch the incision area, just my skin around it. Ugh it's tough though. I really can't wait to get 100% better. I've been feeling much better that now my mom is no longer coming over. It was just me and Lisa today. I'm really trying to get on her about exercising and really getting back to doing everything we both did before this whole hernia thing happened. She has completely quit exercising. She hasn't gone out running, nor has she did DDP yoga, nothing! I'm getting really frustrated because I really want to exercise, really bad! I just can't and I'll be on the shelf for the next 6 weeks but I'm definitely going to push myself everyday. I'm not just going to lay around and be lazy for 6 weeks. I'm going to really try and do my best to get up and around. Lisa, though, she's just quit. All the time in the world and the strength, not to mention the ability to run 3 miles nonstop despite her weight, and she's not doing anything. Makes me mad.

She had class today so she left me pretty early. I was ok here. Weird thing, though. There were lots of cops everywhere. She called me on her way to class and said there were cops going crazy on the highway below the casino. It looked like they were looking for someone. Then I heard a helicopter flying around pretty low. I got up and went outside and slowly walked around the front to see if I saw anything, but nope. I've no idea what was going on. Hopefully nothing serious though.

Well I'm excited about tomorrow because it's Bills Day. No, I'm not excited that it's bills day, but I am excited because I'm going to town with Lisa in the morning. It'll be my first car ride since surgery. I've just been cooped up here at home so it'll be nice to get out there and see the town. I'd also like to get a new cane. I saw these really nice canes over at Sportsmans Warehouse one time. They were really nice looking canes, but I don't know how much they are. I'd like to see them. Honestly though I'm really scared about tomorrow. We are still trying to get our bills taken care of from our San Diego trip. We have 2 loans that we're trying to pay off and it didn't turn out as easy as Lisa thought it was going to be, so that's been causing a lot of stress. I'm sure we can get thru it, we just need to have faith.

Good day, I'm going to relax on my couch. I think I'm starting to grow roots on that thing lol.

Day Two Hundred Thirty Three

Did 3 miles this morning again! Feels great. My feet don't hurt. I mean, I'll feel it but it's not painful like when I first started walking after recovery. They hurt so bad after I sat down a while. That was crazy! So now, I feel great and things are much better. Also my right knee hasn't been feeling crappy in a while now. I feel great! I want to start using the Bowflex and getting back to DDP yoga so bad, but I am so afraid. You know, my recovery took longer than expected. I have said this whole time that my recovery ended the last day in October. Well that was not true! Ya that's when the doctor told me that my recovery was over, but that's not when I was feeling better because to this day, I still feel a really weird and sensitive feeling right where my incision was. I mean, it sometimes hurts, like if I lay on my stomach for a while, then roll over to get up. I really feel it and it doesn't feel good. Simetimes it scares me, like I feel like the herni

Day Two Hundred Thirty Five

STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS WAS AN EXCELLENT MOVIE!!!!!!! Omgosh that movie was so good and so sad :'( I'm serious, I was really trying to hold back tears on that one scene. Dang that movie was really good. I think the better than that entire prequel trilogy. I'm looking forward to the next one. Dang we only got a couple hours sleep last night. Lisa and I didn't end up going to bed until almost 2am. Then we had to get up at 5 and meet my family at Dennys at 6am. We actually got there before they did haha. But it was fun! We had some great conversation and laughs at breakfast this morning. Then afterwards, we headed to the Allen 8 theater. We got there just about 7am. The ppl were already lining up. We had to stay outside in the cold for an entire hour. My mom and brother were freezing lol. It was fun though. My dad saw all this work buddies. It was cool seeing him interact with all his friends. Everyone knew him and my mom. Very cool. We had a great time, even thoug

TODAY I GOT A NEW CAR

On Friday night (1.15.2016), my truck died on me :'( Timing belt broke! In other words, dead in the water. That was my Only vehicle and at the time I was looking for work and my best pal, Skye, is starting Nursing School the following Monday. She uses my truck so she was very worried and angry. I told her we needed to be thankful that my old truck lasted all that time and got her to her last day of work. Now me, I was not worried because I knew God was always there. I was scared, however, because of everything especially on Saturday morning when I woke up. So I went out into the field by my place and I prayed. I said to God how thankful I was for His many blessings. I thanked Him for my truck and the time that I had it. Then, I asked Him to please help me in my situation. I put my trust in Him as I always do. That was Saturday morning (1.16.16). Saturday night (1.16.16), my mom called me and asked me to come over to their place. When I did, they talked with me for a bit about a
