Third and Fourth Day of Post p

I've had some major accomplishments in the last couple of days.

Friday
1. I showered. Gross, I know, but this was major. I can hardly stand to be on my feet for more than a few minutes, so showering was awesome. Plus it made me feel normal, and well, clean. However, I failed miserably at taping the garbage bag around my immobilizer, so my dad and I had to peel my bandages off and let them dry. I hope everything stayed clean because my biggest fear is infection.

2. I went to the grocery store. I rode around in those scooters, which was actually pretty awesome.

3. Went to the bar. Had two drinks and then I was wore out. No worries, didn't mix the pain meds and the alcohol... Last thing I need is another trip to the hospital.

Saturday
Although the pain in my knee was pretty bad in the morning (probably over did it yesterday) I still felt alright after a dose of pain meds.
1. Went to my girls' lacrosse game. I coach Briarcrest, and it was great to see them play.

2. Grocery store. Except my dad and I went to Costco. There was no scooter. But I did see a 16 year old girl riding on one... no cast, brace, even had her right leg tucked up. I'm assuming she didn't need it. If she did, well then I apologize for giving her the death glare. But if she didn't I'm praying to the gods that she wraps her car around a pole and breaks her femur. She saw me walk in on crutches look for a scooter, and then drove away.

People drive me crazy. I was exhausted, and my pain meds were wearing off by that point. The last thing I needed to see was some kid who was capable of walking messing around on something that a handicapped person needed.

Pain levels are getting better... most of it is around the incision areas.
