Shop Vac Queen!
Constant companion!




I just HAD to do something normal! There is this "thing" I have with Shop-Vac's. I love the power of the vacuum. I own three. All different sizes. I asked Peter if he would go get me one so I could "do something normal". Now that I think of it, it must only be normal for ME. I gotta say though, doing just that ONE normal thing for me made me feel some much more human. I didn't do much, just a little area. I know I'm going to hear from Dr. Reilly about this. I'm sure my "team" at RHCI will all tell me I was bad! I just HAD to do it. It takes away the pain somehow.

Lilly has been sticking to me like glue since I have been home. It's nice to be loved. I posted an image I see of her ALL day long. She's such a cutie!

My home care PT came yesterday and I think we'll be a good pair. I just need her to "lighten up" a bit and not be so serious. I'm sure I can break her wall. She is very through and I feel I'll improve every time we have our visit.

I'm giving up on trying to sleep all night. I wake up at 1-2 am and am in such pain from not moving, I can't stand it. From now on, I'll just get up and start doing my exercises and I'll feel better in 15 minutes. I'll try to catch up on sleep during the day.

Missing the PPANE meeting tomorrow. I'm pretty bummed about it. I hate leaving everyone (especially Tom) without my presence on the board. It's what I signed up for. I really enjoy every ones company and friendship! Wish I could be there via Tela Cast!

My Best,
Nanc
