Post-Op Day #32 - Destination North Bend

Well I felt much better this morning then I thought I would after yesterdays cleaning frenzy. LOL

My ankle was good too, I was sort of surprised actually as I figured it'd be super swollen and sore.

I took my second progestrin pill and was fine --no sweating or feeling ill so that was good.

I decided that today I would venture out in the car, hopefully to North Bend(12min drive) to the bank and back.
I got organized and head out, half way down the Snoqualmie Parkway I thought Id better check my phone to make sure it had enough charge in case of an emergency or if I needed to call Adam.

I noticed a text message was there so I checked and it was Jen(a trainer at the ranch) and she said she would be at the ranch till 4pm. I decided I would go the back way to town and stop in at RRR for a bit.
I made it there no problem and stayed for about an hour to chit chat with the girls --it was nice to be out --esp since I DROVE MYSELF THERE! YAY!

After my visit I continued to North Bend the back way and made it to the bank(drive thru ATM) no problem. I deposited some money then head on my way home, of course by this time its so busy and that made me a bit nervous because I had to use the clutch so much more from all the stop and go's! Ack!

I could feel my left hip and foot getting a bit fatigued so I got out of there as quickly as I could and made it home in one piece! YAY!

All things considered it went really well, not bad for my first time going that far! :-) I'm going to do a bit each day, that way by the time Adam leaves for Fresno next week I should be fine.

I'm not going to drive him to and from the airport though, that is way too far for me right now -- I think we've got a ride for him one way so just have to work out the other.
Atleast he'll know I can get out to the ranch, to the store and most importantly my appointments while he's gone.

Anyways, not a bad day and now of course I'll rest my foot and see how it does till the morning. I'll take my Warfarin in 1.5hrs and be good till tomorrow.

Thanks for checking in on me
