WhatsGoingOn: walk

Welcome To My Blog

My interests are sewing, quilting, NASCAR, and camping. I am married to a street rodder. We have multiple old cars - 1961 Willys Jeep Station Wagon and some Mopars. My husband's name is Denny and he has been into old cars for a long time. We have 5 children and 11 grandchildren that are just the greatest children ever! They are smart, beautiful, funny all rolled in together! We have 1 dog, Marcy, who is a St. Bernard and 1 cat that just showed up one day named Happy. She showed up during a NASCAR race and we named her after the winner - Happy Harvick.

I do hope you like my blog. It includes a variety of things and I may not be on it everyday, but I try to add things as much as possible.

Healing...learning to walk again...

Last week the doctor told me to stop using the walker and take the boot off. That was so hard!!! My foot, ankle, and leg became swollen. I could only use a cane for support. It just hurt so much to even try to walk. I went to physical therapy on Tuesday and Brian said that my leg was used to being straight and not bendable. He said to go back to using the walker to learn to bend my leg when I walked. It is getting better. I just want to be able to walk without pain.

I have been able to get a chocheted blanket for the new baby coming. I also crocheted a blanket for Olivia. Next step is to make the baby quilt.
