So another sleepless night of laying on my back.
Plenty of time for working on my connectivity though.
Up early, and struggling to get out of bed. Now for a shower, finally.
Shower felt really nice, but you don't realize how much you use your stomach muscles in every little thing you do. Rinsing shampoo from my hair took some yoga skills.
After my shower, I took the large bandage off my stomach that was covering my belly button. It felt nice to have it gone as the hair was already starting to grow back, and the bandage was pulling a lot as I moved.
Had the house to myself for a little while so I just spent time wandering room to room. It felt good to be up and moving.
I found I was able to get down on my knees and back up, that mobility was a pleasure to find.
Headed out to check the mail and out some scraps in the compost bin. On my way back, Mom and Dickey pulled up. Great to have some visitors. Got to watch Mom shoot her pistol and show them all the new additions to the yard.
After they left, I spent a little time sitting in my chair with the family but my strength was fading so I headed back to my exile.
Next blog post: Some freedom finally
