I am trying to be the woman that thinks she can! The picture to the left is from two years ago.
Today I was scheduled to return to work and while I have been driving myself to PT last week which was a total of one mile two times a day I would have a 27 mile each way journey I was excited and nervous. I was excited because it would mean I was really moving forward but it also meant I would be stuck in traffic. Then I learned on Sunday that all this week it is supposed to rain which makes the commute a tad bit longer!!!
This morning I woke up at 6:30 am and just got ready to go. I left at 7:05, there was no rain or traffic so I arrived at the office at 7:40 am. A miracle in my mind and I felt confident driving.
The day was busy and lots of people welcoming back and some surprised that I was using a crutch. While I can walk without a crutch very slowly I opted to use a crutch and forego my brace. I do not use the brace at home so I just knew I had to be careful.
Glad to say I left work at 4:50 pm and felt tired. Stopped on my way home from work to get some soup as I am getting over my cold and want to take some with me tomorrow.
My knee was sore so I took a couple of Tylenol's and iced it for about half an hour so it feels a bit better.
Now resting and wondering how early I will be able to get up...if it is raining too much and too hard I will be able to work from home as I have PT at 2 tomorrow.

Good job Adriana
