I've been home for a little more than 24 hours, and it has been great. First, we were treated to a wonderful spaghetti and meatball dinner! Delicious! My dad brought a huge bucket of freshly picked strawberries which were amazing! Finally, I was able to sleep on the couch much more comfortably than I thought I would...of course I'm pretty sure the hydrocodone helped out with that!
This morning, Dane made some breakfast, and then we went for a short walk around the block. It felt really nice to get outside. The weather was beautiful. I was able to do 2 laps, each lap being about 1/3 of a mile. I was a little sore and felt a little nauseated when we were done, so I took a little nap (which makes everything better!)
Dane had to leave around 3:00 to pick up his team and head out to Union Academy. My mom and mother-in-law came over to help out. Emma and Dee created some foot scrub when my mom and I took another walk. When we came home, Emma was ready to play "spa". She gave my mom and mother-in-law a very nice foot massage with a salt & peppermint/strawberry scrub. Fancy, eh? I don't know that I'll let her touch my feet. I'm liable to kick her right in the face, and I don't think that will go over very well...
I have so much more to write, but I'm two minutes away from my pain meds, and I'm definitely feeling it... I will pick back up later.
Love you guys!
