I have taken a few days off. Mostly because I really do have a pretty boaring life. I was not going anywhere or doing anything so I had very little to say. But I am back…..
I have had a few nice surprises I got a beautiful package delivered to my house on Tuesday from some “VERY” special friends. It was a package to pamper me, body lotions, and potions, bubble bath, and bath salts. I have been soaking up the beautiful smells and lotions all week. Thanks so much to Debbie for doing this for me. I felt very pampered and very cared for. 😘
I also got a package in the mail from my best friend in Calgary. She is the most kindhearted person I know. She does little things for me all the time. She knows I like Angels and ordered me a special Angel tea and a beautiful cup with golden Angel wings on it. I told her how much I loved it and how special I felt when I drank from it. So she sent me 3 more Angel mugs so I could have tea with my guests and make them feel special too. I will be keep one mug especially for her when we can have Angel tea together. Thanks Angie. ❤️
I have had two busy days out too.. I had 2 doctor appointments yesterday. I needed some more pain meds as I am still having some night that are pretty painful. I just can’t get comfortable I flip fop all night. Some of that might be because my partner in crime ( Jamie) is away. But the pain is real. I did get some new good stuff helping a lot. Yippie. He told me I was making great progress. I asked to go to physio, but he says still a little early. I am stuck with these gimpy arms for a little longer I guess. Then I had to see my Botox doctor. Yes I get Botox. But not for beauty, I am doing it to help with migranes best thing I have ever done for migranes. It helps so much I highly recomend it. But you better not be afraid of needles I get about 40 a visit. All in my head. But I must say I do have a beautiful non-wrinkled forehead. It dosent match the rest of my face. But it is pretty. Lol My Botox doctor is such a wonderful man he is early 70 ish . I go to him every 3 months, but last year every time I went to see him somethings worse had happened to me. First kiney cancer 3 months go but then I go in with a walker from a broken pelvis, then 3 more months, I tell him I had breast cancer. He actually cried when I told him and he gave me a big hug and said he was so sorry. I found out after that his wife died in November of breast cancer. He was just so kind and compassionate, because he really understood 😂
Today I spent with my big Sis we had a shopping day. Just had a list of things I needed. She has definatley become a city girl and is loving living there now. She knew all the best places to go and where all the sales were at. But I did have the rock star parking with my handy cap parking from my broken pelvis. That is old news now that was so last year. He he he. Thanks Cathy I got my shopping legs back.
Getting out has made me more aware of my body as I am trying to cover myself up. I was looking for a few new tops to wear, to not hopefully show that I have no breasts. Because I am still so brused on my ribs I just can’t wear any kind of bra. (5 weeks later ) It just hurts to much. I also can’t wear any kind of bolt on’s yet ( as Mac calls them ), I am forced to go out flat as a bread board. I am ready to wear some kind of bolt on’s but I guess I need more healing time. I am painfully reminded ever time I have a bath,when I get out and look into my mirror that I have no shape. Or maybe the shape of a box. Or a pear, much more weight on the bottom half. With all the extra time I have on my hands I should be exercising that bottom half. My mind and my body just don’t jive yet. More healing time on that front too. But really who am I kidding I have never been an exercising person. I can see both my sisters and my true friends who know me well, reading this and saying. Like who does she think she is kidding saying she is going to exercise. Just a slight slip on my mind, girls. Your all right I don’t plan on exercising, now or ever. 🏋🏼
I also drove myself around the last two days. Pretty exciting for me. My arms are getting more and more movement. I can use the top of the steering wheel now. Much easier to drive. Safer on turns. It is giving me back some of the independence I had lost for a awhile. Look out world I am on the road again.
