Physical Therapy

Yeah today was the day that I will try and begin to heal my body.  Ironically it has been 20 months to the day.  I had physical therapy for my knee and I have the same therapist that I had last year when we were still trying to rehab the knee and avoid surgery.  So I will begin doing all that is asked to try and get the security of two strong legs instead of just one.

I have been sleeping better the past few nights.  Unfortuneatly I stay up into the wee hours and then sleep until at least noon.  I can set an alarm clock and I still refuse to get my sorry butt out of bed.  My mom calls every morning at 10 and I talk to her and go back to sleep.  Damn I need scheduled life activities.  I return to work next Monday so maybe that will help me out.  And then on the 26th of February I fly out to Florida for a two week vacation.  I can’t wait to get away, but the bad part is since I have not been working, I haven’t had the blessing of working overtime to make some extra cash.  So most of the time will be spent just relaxing in the sun and having some good beach time.  I need the break to get my head put back in the right place.

And speaking of getting my head right, I stopped at a gas station today and went into pay and the clerk behind the counter looked really familiar.  But I didn’t really think to much about it and he asked me if my first name was "soph" and when I looked into his face, I discovered an ex-boyfriend from 30 years ago.  I commented that it sure was a surprise to see him and paid for my gas and soda and walked out.  I think I am a little unnerved at seeing him.  Back in the day he was leading a shady lifestyle and was not the most upstanding person.  But hopefully he has turned his life around.  He told me that he was living in a near by city and I told him to stop by the police station sometime if he wanted to talk.  Damn, I hope he really doesn’t take me up on it because I have diffierent standards now.  I hope he has turned his life around and is not still on a bad path.

OH well, thats my exciting life for now.  I think I will go to bed and try, try, try to get up in the morning.  Maybe I can make something out of the day.  I so need structure in my life.  Good nite and God bless to all of you.

Aloha… Writing about seeing an ex-boyfriend… reminds me that a year ago… I saw a recent picture of an ex-girlfriend… whom I hadn’t seen since 1960… Auwe… I wonder if I’ve changed as much as she has… Smiles………………….

Oh I can see me doing what you are struggling to quit doing and that is staying up late and sleeping late. I must resist that urge if and when I retire, but I’ll still get up to get Jacob up for work, so that will help…I hope. Course there are those dasterly naps that I’m so fond of when I can’t sleep late on the weekends. You enjoy your vacation and the sun and warmth sound really good to me right now. Take care and God Bless
