Ok 8 days til walking!  At least it should be…my mom said “we’ll see what he says”, as if my doctor is going to say anything else.  Everyone knows 6 weeks non-weight bearing is the norm as far as non-weight bearing goes…and nothing is out of the norm right now.  Range of motion is pretty good, and I think I was able to gain an extra degree or two this weekend.  Despite all that progress, my right knee has been a little sore from all the work it has to do.  I can’t wait to take some of the weight off of this poor little leg.

As far as the weekend went, I was able to get out a bit.  Even though I didn’t get out on Friday, my grandmother was over.  She always puts a smile on my face with her stories.  On Saturday, I ventured into the city to help my sister move into her new apartment.  And by help, I mean I sat in her new apartment and waited for the cable guy and movers to come with her stuff.  All in all it was good to get out.  On Sunday, I was able to sit outside for part of the day.  I even ventured down the deck and stuck my feet in the pool.  Also, for once, I did not start and complete a book in an entire weekend.  I’m still working on “Girls In Riyadh”.  It is quite good but not as quick a read as the Sophie Kinsella books.

Well that is all for now.  I just have to keep thinking positively!  This non-weight bearing business is almost OVER!!!
