Stupidity!

OK, I will have to say I am a pretty stupid person. And a bit paranoid. I decided that yesterday I would go to the gym and ride the bike. No big deal, right. Wrong. Backstory.......Had surgery on my foot and am not supposed to put on a shoe. I am supposed to wear a surgical shoe. Well, my stupid self stuck my foot into a shoe and went to the gym. I rode the bike and after a bit, my foot was tingling. Did I stop. Nope. I kept going. I felt the freedom! Mistake. My toe was sore and it felt funny all night. Well now the paraniod issue. My toe looks like it is pointing inward. I really don't remember if it was straight out or pointed in. I have also been working it out and it is looser than before, so I guess it has a bit more movement than before. OH well, you live and you learn. No tennis shoes. I did get a pair of crocs. I am banished to my surgical shoe and the occasional crop and flop.

UGH!

I see that my sister is heading to the gym and I am SO proud of her. I would love to go to the gym, but I am very limited as to what I can do. I need to get going on something. I have gained 4 lbs since my surgery. UGH!!!! This is the heaviest I have been not pregnant. Not overely happy about it. I have the want to, but not really the will. It is very hard to get motivated. And I can't run and have to be careful about what I do. I guess I could go swimming. Oh well, such is life.

Walk It Out

Yes I can walk!!! Now it is just need to get the courage to do it! Now walk it out! West side walk it out! Now east side walk it out! Now I can start doing normal things again, like cleaning. Wait....uh...I can't walk! :-)

Waiting...

I have a DR's appt today and hopefully I will get to walk. Cross you fingers. I am ready. Never really realized how much I walked around. It would be great to be able to walk to the restroom and not hop. Let you know how it goes.

Moments

Moments - noun plural -a comparatively brief period of time......

We all have many of these. Some good, some bad. Usually they seem more that a brief period. Sometimes they last for days. And if you have kids, boy does it fly.

I remember Devin coming home from the hospital and being a baby that would keep me up all night. Then I remember the cute little girl laying on the dog drinking her bottle. She then went to Kindergarden. Now she is a 6th grader and just turned 11.

We also have those moments that we look back on and wonder, "What in the hell was I thinking?" Those moments that seemed to last an eternity. Life is a roller coaster. You know that there will be ups and downs; that you will be flipped upside down and jerked around. All you should know is that you need to hold on. At the end of the ride, you will look back and be glad you rode.
