Day One Hundred Eighty Nine


Did 3 miles this morning!
Still trying to get back to drinking water, but it's very hard. I do drink some though, in the mornings after my walks. Another thing is my walking pace is not very fast. That's something I'm working on. My legs are so stiff and I'm trying to get out of this funk. Honestly though, I know that it's just something I need to break thru. Like a tough outer layer of weakness due to my two month recovery. Once I break thru that, though, I'll be rolling like a champ again. Just takes patience and hard work.

I didn't do any other exercises the rest of the day, as I'm trying to start off slow, then ease myself into it. There are so many things that I want to do. I'm just so afraid about my incision and I keep hoping that nothing bad happens. Sometimes Lisa will freak me out with all her knowledge about the body and the things she's learning about for nursing school. So, it's tough to really believe that I'm fully healed and can do the things I did.

It's gotten so cold outside and my truck heater is not working. I hate that! I need to get Lisa's car running again but it's going to cost $600 for a new engine because hers is dead and gone because her timing belt broke. Such hard times now, but that's what makes us stronger. That's really what Fyrescape is all about. Facing challenges and growing stronger from them. Now that I'm on Fyrescape 2, this is what it's all about. I'm looking forward to brighter days. Just gotta hold on.

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
