Today I drove myself to the clinic in my own vehicle. Woo, hoo! I drove Hubby's car a couple of times over the weekend, but I wasn't by myself. Today I flew solo, and it felt so good.
In other good news, I can stop the blood thinner now, and that means two fewer trips to the clinic each week. Now it's just two trips to physical therapy each week, and I expect that will be finished soon. Things are looking up.
I've been watching a lot of HGTV: House Hunters, Property Brothers, Love It or List It, Property Virgins, My First Place. If you get the impression I'm bored, yup, I'm bored. It'd be fun being home all day if I was able to get out into the yard and do some weeding, hedge trimming, etc. I guess I just need to be patient. After all, I'm only three weeks out from surgery.
I'm walking around the house without my cane, and it's a bit scary sometimes. I'm still too nervous to leave the house without my cane, though.
I've got two weeks to get my butt in shape for going back to work. My hip/buttock still hurts if I sit very long in one position, and I'll need to be able to sit for four hours or so (with stretch breaks, of course) at work. The therapist gave me stretching exercises to do, so it's stretch, stretch, stretch!
