Physical Therapy (PT)

Today I went to physical therapy for the first time. It is at a local health club. It feels so good to drive again. It was quite a long time before I drove. At PT the nurse...I think thats what they are called...moves my ankle around, shows me some exercises to do at home. This is supposed to help me get back some flexibility and strength in my ankle. I hope it works.

As I take my big plastic boot off I notice my toenails are a mess. I wouldn't really notice this but my wife does every time she looks at my foot. She gives me a look like " poor Bill. Those toes are disgusting". She thinks I need a pedicure. No way am I getting one of those things. Its just not manly. Also my foot stinks. Stinks like a dirty foot that stepped in dog shit 7 weeks ago and has not been cleaned. The funny thing is (funny for me but not for the smeller) I clean my foot at least every other day with soap and water. On the days I don't soap it up I at least wash it down with saline solution. I do this because I have an open wound on the side of my ankle that needs attention every day. So the foot is clean, but stinks and I can't smell it. Ohh well.

At this very moment I am watching dancing with the stars. Its not that bad. I am embarrassed to say I am watching it. But with all the sports I've been watching lately I feel the bride should get some relief and watch what she wants.

I found out my sister has had another baby today. Since I am able to drive I think I will venture north one of these days to see everyone. I feel bad....my sisters kids don't know who I am. That's what I think anyway. Till next time........cyanara.
