Movin’ On Up

This morning I felt like the little doggie on this Hallmark card—his tail between his legs, dreading those ominous looking stairs. I knew today in PT we were going up and down the stairs to second floor. When I thought about climbing stairs, my point of reference was struggling to get up the front porch steps 11 days ago. But in those 11 days I’ve done some serious leg muscle strengthening and learned to balance walking with a cane. Today’s climb was a piece of cake! Whoohoo!

In case you can’t tell, that’s a thumbs up!

Glad I’m gaining some independence. I’m ready to venture beyond these downstairs walls. Miss my family who was here the first two weeks. Bring on the company.

I am not afraid of storms for I am learning how to sail my ship. – Louisa May Alcott
