OK session

Got out of the house today for the first physical therapy session since release. It went OK. I'm scheduled for PT (Physical Therapy) on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays for the first 2 weeks, and then it will switch to just Mondays and Wednesdays until the cast comes off. Hopefully that will happen within a few weeks of that occurrence, at which point we'll reassess, naturally. I've got a great team of physical therapists working with me, and they are super positive and encouraging, and they really know their stuff. Big shout out to them making this entire ordeal a manageable experience. Emma wasn't there today so I didn't ask her about movies or even TV shows. (This would be a lead-in to me mentioning the Jumjax™ Database, which I think she would enjoy, maybe even if she isn't a fan of movies. As a physical therapist, it might be just the thing to help her discover her love of movies--seeing jumping jacks on the silver screen!) Scott was working with me today. He's not as good at banter. I said to him, "Scott Lang, big fan." He must have missed the reference though.

I will say this: I am getting better at using crutches going up and down stairs, which gives me much greater license to move around the house. At first I was sitting on my butt and moving one step at a time! Ha ha. Slow going, but the tortoise did beat the hare. Anyway I am now hopping up the stairs instead and it's way faster. I guess I'm a pretty quick innovator/learner, since it's just the 3rd day home. I do have to stop and rest part way up and down, so I try not to make too many trips during the day, but on the Physical Therapy guidelines it does say that it's important to be active and not just sit around all day.

Another day closer to normalcy. xxoo,
