Crutches are tiring me out Mood
Sunday, May 17, 2009

Well almost a week in the cast and me and the crutches are still not working out.  I tried to go to church today.  By time I got dressed I was broke out in a sweat and tired out and out of breath.  Hubby went with out me.  I tried.  I wanted to go.  I teach and did not want to let the kids down.  I guess I need to do the physical thrapy to learn the gait control. 

 

I bought four Beverly Lewis books to read while I am down with my foot.  I also bought a Joyce Myer book on prayer that I hope to incorperate into the prayer group some.  

 

B and J went to see Wolverine yesterday.  They had a father and son day.  A was at a girls lock in and was the longest J and A have been apart since they were married and he was pacing the floor by time it was time for her to be done.  I am glad they love each other that much.  They both made the deans list which I think is fantastic considering they were getting use to married life at the same tiime.  

 

 I think I am going to  hobble back to bed for awhile.  Had to take pain meds this morning and the muscle relaxers.  Too much break thorugh pain.  Hope you all have a blessed day.

    You just need to rest and take care of you for awhile. Don't worry about letting others down. They will always be there for you when you come back. You have a big heart for others, but you need to worry about you right now. I've read Joyce Myer before. Have one of her study guides I'm working on now called, How to Hear From God. Also watch her on tv some, she's good. Get rest today, and don't worry about anybody but yourself today!

    Sorry to read that you are in such pain...and having to deal with learning to walk on crutches! I can be really uncoordinated .....so I cna imagine how hard it would be for me to get the hang of it too!
    Resting up is a good idea.And, I do love Joyce Meyer...everytime I was feeling low or feeling like having a pity part for myself... I would catch one of her programs on TV and it seemed as if she was speaking to me and my situation that day...

    I broke my foot the same day you did! It must be in the air! I know how you feel though...I REALLY do! It is so frustrating when you are trying to do what you want and just can't. I hope you are well and recovered very soon!

    Oh hun,
    I wish you could get use to using the crutches or be able to use a walker. Yrs. ago, I had to use crutches and it seemed to take me forever to get use to them. I think the walker is much easier, even tho I had to get use to it too. Im so sorry that you had to miss church but you do need to take care of yourself. You never let anyone down. I have several of Joyce Meyers books and I watch her all the time on tv. She always makes me laugh and she keeps it real. I love you and will keep praying for you.
    Hugs and so much love for you....Julie

    Rest in His care and keep your eyes, ears, and heart open for the miracles that He surrounds you with everyday.

    Good luck getting used to the crutches. I had to spend a lot of time on them when I tore a ligment in my knee. Which books did you get? I am always looking for new ones to read!!!
