I have to stop thinking that Saturday is my only off time
because it isn’t. I have been outside cutting shelves for my back book room/
classroom/ whatever it will be called. It has been slow as all get out but it
is getting done. My wife is out on the back porch replanting her plants.
Yesterday I had both left arm PT and leg PT. The arm lady
said I need to get the muscles back working, use them all the time I need
something done – button buttons – I wear pullovers but my wife wore a button up
PJ shirt to bed and I unbutton all those buttons this morning - clean the table,
use it to type which I am doing right now. It has been slow and I am making a
ton of mistakes but I can see more work coming out of that hand right now.
My leg is getting better and I tend to walk around without a
cane when I can. All of this is getting better but I just have to do things
different than before. Emailing and typing on here is slow but I am getting stronger.
I just need to think more about what I need to get do so that I can get back to
my students. They need me – I hope.
I take my BP every morning before anything, I take my BS
before I have breakfast – which the needle stick is getting old – but I need to
put it in an excel sheet for my doctor. I weigh myself each morning but the
weight has not changed much – it fluctuates up and down about three pounds no
matter what my wife fixes or doesn’t fix.
I look over the excel sheet and things have been the same
for the past month. The numbers just
have not changed – that’s good and bad – good in the sence that I am at my normal
weight and that won’t change and my BP and BS is very stable but bad because I want
all of it to come down somewhat.
