That's the favorite word now - frustrated. The leg feels fine and doesn't hurt, and that's great, but it also means that I feel fine enough to walk and can't. I know that I can't put any weight on my leg and I miss walking/running, etc. I made appointments for the physical therapist, but they didn't have anything for next week, so I go on the 15th. I'm excited to start the process of healing so that I can walk again soon. I'm getting really good on the crutches though. But I still get tired if I try to walk too far.
The whole work thing has been a pain, took 2 weeks to get the Dr to fill out the forms. I'm required to work from home, but that has to be approved by HR, so waiting for that final approval too. I really needed a vacation, and I only had one more week of work until the beach when this happened. I wish I could do anything to be back at work without a broken leg. And the unfortunate thing is that right before the accident I was starting to get settled in my new position and was learning and had the opportunity to get on projects.
I was able to get a ride to girls night at Mc and Schmicks with Chops, Missy, and Cristen. I also got to go out with Lauren for her birthday. And I even made it to Hard Times for wing night last night. I'm trying to get back to normal life, I just have to sit everywhere I go and take up 2 seats, but if that's the worst I do, it's not that bad.
Everything was going so well, and now the frustration has set in. But to count my blessings, I have friends and Galen that want to take care of me and are doing a great job. I'm off to Tappahannock with Galen to his dad's house for some fun in the sun. Yay! Happy Birthday America!!!!
