Getting better

Friday

Eventually I fell asleep. I woke on and off through the early morning. By 8 I was awake enough to turn on my phone and check for messages. There was one from Michelle. Using the box, I was able to lower my feet to the floor. However, walking was difficult and only possible in slow baby steps. First stop was the bathroom. Then I moved the towel, my nightgown and some other things to the washer. I washed up at the sink and got dressed. I ate some nuts and cheese and took Ibuprofen. I texted Casey that I would need a ride to Math Morning.

When he arrived, his m-i-l was with him. She had a towel and some Ibuprofen, planning to help me get dressed. So sweet! I gingerly sat in the car and we went to the chapel. He dropped me off and went to take her home.

I found the door unlocked and went in to set up for Math Morning. I checked the mouse traps. I saw Saronna and her kids outside. I realized that they didn't know I was here because my car wasn't here. So I went to greet them. They came in and we sat down for math. Casey came in. Then Karen came in. She sat across from me and we worked on graphing and functions. Saronna left with Sophia for a doctor appointment. Then Karen took the rest of the kids home with her. Casey took me home.

I read e-mail for awhile. Then I made and ate breakfast. I was thinking of taking a walk, but it would have been pretty far. I was walking just fine so I decided to drive. I went over to Mustang and parked in the overflow lot. I walked to 602 and met Jamie. We talked for quite some time. Then I picked up the left behind plates and spoons to take to the chapel.

I went to the post office to return the postal key left in 602. I talked to the postmaster for awhile. Then I went home. I opened my mail to find some strips for making blocks for the guild quilt. I read messages and listened to a podcast or two. I posted to Facebook for the sewing class and Project Night. I heated bean soup for supper and threw in some chopped greens from the tower garden.

I worked on my blog. I listened to a podcast on menopause. I made a batch of breakfast mix.  Then I went to Game Night at Michelle's house.  I brought her some cheese squares.  Casey had the game up.  I used the notes on my camera to take the next step in each world.  Two of them gave me problems and I made a mental note.
At 11 I thanked Casey and went home.  It was late to I got ready for bed, skipping the yoga part because my back still wasn't 100%.  I turned off my phone and put it in a special bag beside my bed, just in case.   Then I went to sleep and slept much better than last night.
