Wednesday, May 13

5:53 a.m. - Yesterday was a productive day.  I was able to get some things done at school, and I was able to get some things done at home.  Last night was okay, too, as I also tried to get some work done then.  I needed to review data from our recent MAP and m-Class assessments and figure out who earned certificates of accomplishment.  

Today I have a consult with my surgery doctor, even though I think I'm meeting with Brandon who is the physician assistant for Dr. Hussein right now.  My mom is going to take me to the appointment, but I think after today I'll be driving myself to all the physical therapy appointments.  I then need to continue to make accomplishments at school.

Tuesday, May 12

7:35 a.m. - That was better!  I got a good night's sleep last night.  I went to sleep a little later - around 10 p.m., and yesterday wasn't as "physical" with as much walking as I had done the previous two days.  I still woke up at 3 a.m. to use the bathroom, and I didn't go right back to sleep, but I wasn't as uncomfortable, and I took an Extra Strength Tylenol, and got back to sleep within an hour I think.  

That was all after a day that included me getting to school for a couple of hours from about 11 a.m. - 1:30 p.m., and I attended the BOE meeting that started at 6:30.  I would have skipped it, but I needed to make a student of the month presentation to the BOE and I wanted to do that.  

Also yesterday, I went downstairs and tried to start back to complete some exercise with dumb bells.  That felt good to do.

Monday, May 11

 8:30 a.m. - Last night was rough.  I'm able to sleep from about 9 p.m. - 2 p.m. and then I wake up and the discomfort in the leg is just too much and I can't get back to sleep. I even tried to go back to bed this morning after eating some breakfast and taking the meds, and I couldn't sleep.  Maybe I just tried to push the leg too much the last couple of days.  I'm going to try to head to IC Elementary from 11-1 today and see how it goes.  Then I'm going to head to the BOE meeting this evening and stay as long as I can.

Yesterday was a nice day.  We managed to get the yard mowed - Amber did the push mowing - most of it, and that helped a lot.  I wasn't sure how the rider mower was going to go, but I managed.  After that we went to Aunt Mary's and had a nice lunch with family for Mother's Day.  Then it was back home to relax.
