Progress

I'm making progress in my recovery. I can now kneel on the floor without hurting - getting up is another thing. I can also lay down and get up from laying down by myself. I can also roll onto my left side - the right side has the incisions. I can go up and down the stairs although, slowly. I'm still not allowed to lift things, so I can't get Amy into her high chair or crib. I got through yesterday without a nap. I went a little overboard on the sweets yesterday and I'm paying for it today. I woke up with a headache - probably from all the sugar. And my tummy is a bit upset, probably from too many fatty foods, like chocolate, cookies and ham.

We are also progressing with our winter cleaning. Yesterday Aaron went through the play room with the boys, and threw away a lot of junk. Today we went through our storage and threw away more, and now have a huge give away pile. We have a very big garbage can since most everything is either recycled or put in yard waste. So we'll have to put an extra grocery bag or two of garbage in there every week until it's gone. I think the biggest project left is the office, and Aaron's corner of our room. There is a lot of paper that needs to be sorted through, new files to be made, paper to be recycled or shredded. Lots of publications that Aaron needs to decide which to read or keep. On my end there is a lot of scrapbook type stuff that I need to through and decide what to keep and where to put it. I haven't scrapbooked in a long time. And there's a lot of memorbilia just stashed away that needs to be organized. I'll have to get to that later.

I'm glad you're recovering! Please let me know if I can do anything. David was excited on Sunday to tell how many Legos he got for Christmas!
