Last night was another rough one. It's so hard to get to sleep for any longer than like three hours. I always wake up and have thrown all my pillows all over the room. Pain-wise, I feel pretty good. I bumped the cpm machine up to 85 degrees today and it feels great. I will get a picture on my next session. I've been doing all my flexion and strengthening exercises, flexing my quads and calves like crazy and keeping up on the Kardashian/ Humphries wedding (I cannot wait for this week's gossip mags to come out Friday so I can see all the pictures!).
Several good things happened today: I can put more and more weight on my leg with less and less pain, I washed my hair using the shower chair that my mom passed down (she had a double knee replacement in June) and I took a semi-shower! I told my mom several times today that the hair washing/shower made this the best day since the surgery and I'm not lying! I feel pretty good and hope that my mood and knee keep getting better!!!!
*on an unrelated note....my favs, Anna, Jason and Sid went back to school today. I have been thinking of them all morning because I cannot believe Sid is in 4th grade and A and J are in FIRST!! It's crazy and I'm sure they are all loving their new teachers and learning lots.
