I didn't wake up till 7 am today it's back to my old routine but needed the extra sleep I went back to sleep after being woke up at 5-5:30 am. I woke up with the wound bloody and wanting to shower. So I waited for breakfast to come first and ate then I jumped in the shower. I chilled watching football pregame stuff waiting for the games to start and lunch to come. I ate lunch and before I knew it they came to take me to church. At church I sat with Sean and Susan. Susan is so

I woke up at 6 am and everybody else at my moms house was asleep. I laid there looking at my grandsons thinking how did I get so blessed? Soon they were awake and I got to spend some time alone with them. We got ready for the day and did a few final things with some painting on our rocks! Before we knew it was lunch and after we ate my mom and step-dad brought me home and the boys up to see my room. My oldest grandson was worried I wasn't going to have things in my room that

I woke up at 6:30 am and had my grandson get my mom cause I needed help getting to my step-dads bathroom. I couldn't use my moms that is easier for me cause they were sleeping in their room where her bathroom is. After using the restroom I fell back to sleep until 8:30 am. It was nice to wake up to my boys I miss them so much. I am beyond thankful for my mom who makes sure I still get to see them. We finished painting dinosaurs today and I made a pet rock. The boys and I trie

I woke up at 7:30 am I ate breakfast and got ready for the day. At 10 am my step-dad showed up to pick me up to go to their house for Thanksgiving and staying overnight to spend time with my grandsons. It was the best thing ever getting to my moms house and knowing my boys were inside. I climbed the 5 steps to my moms house like I was not in a wheelchair, but once I got to the top I had to sit down and my step-dad got me over the few small bumps they have in their house. Once

Today started out late compared to normal I didn't wake up till 7:15 am. I ate breakfast and took a shower getting ready for the day. I went to church at 10 am for songs and stories. I was sitting by a lady I didn't know and Abby and Eddie our sweet married couple. Abby fell as she was trying to get into her chair but she was okay and she stayed in church. I then went back to my room and couldn't stop thinking of Abby and if she was okay. At 2 pm we had a Thanksgiving gather

I got up at 6:45 am and slowly got ready. At 7 am the nurse walked in and I knew it would be a good day! Breakfast came shortly after 7 am. The nurse got my insulin and I ate breakfast and then I got my bottled water and crystal light peach tea. I waited and at 10:20 am someone from activities came to my room to take me to wheelchair exercises. It got over at 11 am and I went back to my room and waited for lunch. Shortly after I ate my food June came to take me to restorative

The nurse woke me up at 5:30 am for my pain pill to keep me on schedule. I fell back to sleep and was woke by the med aid at 6:22 am to take my breakfast pills that I gotta take as I am about to eat. Breakfast isn't served till about 7:30 am and the regular med aids know to just put them on my table and I will take them when I need them. My day started out a hour earlier then need be. Lets hope the rest of the day goes better. Sean was at Bible study today and we sing songs t

Thursday was a boring day all I did was go to therapy and spent the rest of the day in my room with a headache. I did get a package from my cousin to do on Saturday when we have the most boring day she sent a puzzle! I truly appreciate it people gather around and do puzzles or just watch. Today has been far more exciting. My mom and step-dad came by to see me they brought my Walmart order. My mom also brought me a new wig and this one is the one it suits my personality. I pla

Well I am back I haven't been feeling good for the past 3 days. I am still dealing with stomach issues, but I am feeling good enough tonight to type. This morning I took a shower and went to therapy before lunch. When I got back from therapy the salon lady came to see me with wigs my mom ordered me my head was to big for one of them and the other fits just right.

I didn't get motivated until 7am this morning. I took my shower at 8am and attended chair exercises in the chapel at 10:30am. I got a phone call and had to leave a few minutes early. As soon as I got back to my room from exercising my step dad showed up with my Christmas decorations. It was the perfect at the perfect time. I had an upset stomach and needed to stay by a bathroom so I put up my Christmas decorations. I have a Thanksgiving sign on my door it's a little sad th

I got up this morning and got ready for the day, but I did fall asleep for a little bit waiting for Bible study to start. Both Sean and Ron were there but I did not sit by either of them. Bible study was good as always. The lady that leads Bible study told me I looked tired today I told her I was exhausted. I was going to go to the vets gathering but I had a stomach ache. I decided to go to my room and rest. I got a bedside table that is two times bigger then a regular bedsid

Saturday is always a quite uneventful day. When I woke up I changed into a clean pair of pajamas for the day! I actually wore a t-shirt with the pj pants. I went to restorative therapy and Betty came and visited the therapist told us a good story about a date she went on. Once I got back to my room I put on a pj top and got comfy for the rest of the day. I don't even match and don't even care; I just want to be cozy not struggling to get comfy. Being comfy is my goal I like t
