Almost 7 am and it has been a long night. Actually I slept good the first stretch, 10 to 2 am. Max pain pills then and finally slept for a while. Been awake messing around for a couple hours now no more pain meds till almost eight. My leg dosn't have that horrible hurt that you get at pt, however, It Hurts. Allmost like some kind of pressure is building up. -- There was a call for breakfast so I went down to the dinning room and had my tasty breakfast. 1/2 of the corn flakes, two bites of a sausage biscuit , cup of orange juice, and most the milk. Back to the room and put my clothes in the washer. Planning on a shower once they are done, which by the way is also a major event. --- This is the long day as there is no pt today, so the shower will be the strenuous thing I do. -- Clock has worked its way around to 7:30, 1/2 hour till I get the next pain pills, so I shall shut this down until later as I know it gets tiring hearing all of the moaning through these keys.--- Clothes out of the dryer and either in my night stand or in the closet. Now for the shower, went really good, the Pain pills had kicked in and it sure felt good to scrub the hair on my head. Back to the room I tried doing a few exercises sitting in a chair and drawing my knee as straight down as possible. Trying for the 90 degrees, I know I got no where close but I guess a little work out is better than none. -- Rehab Dr came in and visited, he was very encouraging. Thinks that I will be at 90 degrees by the end of the week. Something is going to have to change or I think I am in for a very painful week to have any chance of making 90 degrees. --- Oh will now for the important things in life, I am watching the NFL pre-game show on the NFL channel. Football .----An afternoon of watching the Bucs loose to Carolina. -- Red called and offered to bring me a fresh smoked sandwich, delicious. That was my supper along with a fruit cup from the regular food tray. While Red and Marline were here I walked with them down to the rec room and then again when they left I walked them to the elevator. Felt good to get out and walk a little. -- It is about 6 and I am hoping that there will be something good on TV tonight, Christmas show is fine, or, will it just doesn't matter, something to hold my interest for an hour or two. I think that I shall close off for the day and if anything else good or bad happens I will put it on tomorrows.
