Sunday, August 8th.

Well, it's 2:00 and 91 deg outside. Stan is mowing the lawn and I wish I could be doing yard work too. It's very hard to sit back and have to have others do things that you enjoy doing. Rolls are reversed around here today. I'm in on the computer when I would much rather be out mowing and just doing yard work. The flowers are all in bloom and the dahlias are in full bloom now in the fields. People are starting to drive by the house now to look at the fields and walk through them. Traffic will soon be very busy here in the coming weeks.

I am feeling better after my knee surgery and the P T is working. I have been overdoing it again and I feel every pain I have in my knee today. I am thinking of not going to the advanced P T class on Monday, but rather going to the beginners class again for just one more week. I am bending my leg allot better now and the pain is really getting better. I should be moving up to a cane sometime next week and stop using the crutches. I stopped using the walker last week and was so happy to fold it up and put it away. I know it has only been 3 weeks, but, sometimes it feels like it's been a month. I still have not been able to sleep at night. I am getting up 4-6 times a night, but, the doctor says that will go away. Sometimes it takes up to 6-8 weeks for that to go away. AAAAAGGGGHHHHHH
