Day One Hundred Thirty - Recovery Day 3


Saturday it is!!! Well this is my 3rd day after surgery. I'm still waking up a few times at night. Oh man it's still hurting pretty bad to get up. I took a shower this morning. That was tough. My incision is doing really good. It's no longer bleeding or anything. Lisa has been cleaning it every morning and changing out the bandage. She does excellent at this! She's goin to make a superb nurse one day. She's already got the skills, she just needs the degree and she's there!

I'm walking around as much as I can. It's pretty hard because I can't walk very far. Just taking a shower and walking around all morning to get ready and washed up, that really wears me out. I am so out of energy after that. Lisa is taking care of all the outside chores. She's feeding the animals every night and watering the trees and grass every morning. She's a real trooper! I just hope she doesn't lag on her studies.

Mom came over again today after Lisa went to work. This evening she made chicken fajitas!!! Omgosh they were Amazing!!1 She cooks so good and as I said yesterday, no one compares to my mom's cooking. Lisa actually picked up all her cooking skills from my mom and she's said that on numerous occasions. I told mom that tonight and she was really proud and happy to hear that. Lisa's family couldn't believe how great her food tasted when she cooked for them one day and when they asked her where she learned to cook, she told them from My mom :D So cool!! We sat around watching movies again and joking around after dinner. It's great to spend time with my mom. She stays here with me until Lisa comes home from work.

Progressing slowly, but I'm coming along. I'm getting around more and trying to keep up with my walking. I want to walk more and also, being stuck in my house every day watching TV...ugh it's getting pretty dull. I'm not one to just hang out in front of the TV all day, seriously. I can't wait until this 6 weeks is up 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
