I am a very bad blogger, it has been almost a year since I last posted a blog, and alot has happened since then. But I am not going to try to catch up for the last year, I will just start new. Unfortunately, I have lots of time right now due to my temporary home confinement and limited mobility. I ruptured my left achilles tendon during tennis practice three weeks ago and had surgery to repair it a week later. It is a 12 week recovery process, the first 6 weeks are non-weight bearing and the next 6 weeks are partial to full weight bearing with a boot. Physcial therapy after that for a couple of months until I am back to normal and able to really exercise again. I am hoping to play tennis again by September or October.
I get around the house right now on my free spirit wheeled cart, I rest my knee on the cart. I am very thankful for this cart, because otherwise I would have to use crutches, which are a pain.
This injury happened on a Thursday and all I could think was the Bon Jovi concert was Friday night. So we went to the doctor on Friday and he gave me the boot to wear so I was able to go to the Bon Jovi concert with crutches. The concert was amazing, well worth the effort to get there.
So I have survived the first two weeks, only 10 more to go. I was bored by day 4, but I am hanging in there, taking it one day at a time. I am hoping to work in the girls first grade classrooms next week.
