It has been a peaceful day here at the rehab center aka HOME!
I woke up around 8:30 after a good night's sleep, made coffee, instant oatmeal and took my meds all before Jim came home from his treatment.
The PT came around 1PM and once the torture ended, I grabbed the vicotin, the ice pack and crashed back in bed.
It seems to be the most comfortable spot to be in when I want to alleviate bending my knee. Other than the D.Room chair with arms there are no other seats high enough not to cause a pull when I stand.
The sofa is way too low and hard to negotiate, but not to worry. I have mission control set up in my room, with my notebook computer, DVD player and TV along with my phones and cats.
Jim has been great, absolutely stellar, keeping my water glass full and helping with the ice packs.
Currently I am sitting in the office, paying some bills, and about to move to the kitchen table for dinner.....Yumm....Dungeness Crabs.
We've been smart about food. Yesterday the rotisserie chickens were on sale so he bought 2, ate 1 for supper, and I still have one to pick for salad or soup or pot pie. We have meat for sandwiches, cans of good soup, and yogurts for dessert.
We meet up for meals and go on our seperate ways to watch sports or drama.(After all, it is MARCH!!!)
What a perfect relationship....I feel like Laura Lippman and Davis Simon.
BTW, I watched Eat Pray Love and enjoyed it. It could be the drugs, but then again I like Lifetime movies. I also watched Wall Street 2, which was predictable but entertaining. I am off of politics for today and that was too close to truth.
When I was on the Ortho floor, one of the Aides was shocked that I was the only patient not watching American Idol. I took pride in that!
