Sitting Around
Hello,
It is not easy to sit around. I have read a book, watched a movie and sighed a few times. Yesterday we learned when changing the bandage on my toes, that there was quite a bit of bleeding. Probably I did not sit still enough. Today I am trying to do better. It is good that there is no pain but pain would probably encourage me to sit and have that foot up. As it is there is no penalty for walking around. Leroy has fixed meals and done the dishes, but I found other things to pick up or move around. Most days I must be on the move quite a lot.
Yesterday I recorded over 4000 steps, but some of those occurred before the removal of toenails. I did call Leroy to come pick me up even thought the nurse did not sound like it was all that necessary. But maybe she did not realize I had walked five blocks to get there. I also went into the store to pick up my meds. I could have had Leroy do that on his own.
The bandages were a bit bloody this morning. Perhaps that is because I got up twice to go to the bathroom. Or maybe the weight of the blankets was too much on the toes.
At least I did not walk to church this morning to help unload supplies for the meals served to the needy in the community. Leroy did that on his own.
