Burrrrrrr Baby it's Cold Outside! Hope everyone is staying bundled and warm. Father Winter is letting his presence be known.
The very good news, physical therapy is going really well. Natalie's toe has gone from not moving an inch to moving. Her range of motion went from zero to 38% in one week. Yes, she is determined! The PT wiz...Tab....is very happy to say the least. She has been going to the pool everyday and walking. Which I guess is causing a stir with some folks, much to Nat's dismay. Now mind you, she is walking in the THERAPY pool. And on two different occasions an older gent has said, "hey, that's not swimming that's walking". Genius' eh?? Needless to say, she wasn't a happy camper with their comments.
Anyway... back to the good news, she is walking, she is wearing a normal shoe, the boot is around ...somewhere, her attitude has improved. She has finally allowed herself to believe that her toe/foot is going to better one day soon. Seeing her toe move again has brought all of us a bit of comfort.
Today, Natalie was up and out early. On her way to Atlanta to teach lessons. She will spend the night up there (to save gas money) and teach again tomorrow. After which she and I will head to Knoxville for a UT Tennis Team Alumni weekend. She is excited to attend, for she has been on the court during the past years.
While Nat's at the dinner on Friday night, I will go watch the Lady Vols basketball team, thanks to Jessica. We will reunite at some point and join Edward (Nat's brother) and Robby (Nat's ??) (not sure official yet....hahahahha). Who will drive up separately due to their work schedules. Then on Saturday morning we will watch the tennis alumni hit some tennis balls, well except for Natalie. After which, we will join the Vol Navy on the Boles Boat for pre game party. Then we will be off to the football game.
Looking forward to a very Orange weekend and showing Robby how we do it in the SEC. Being a Nebraska fan....yea I know we won't hold it against him....he knows the fun of a big game and stadium. But he hasn't experienced Vol Nation or the Vol Navy......sooo this is gunna be fun. And besides, we can pick his brain a lil while Nat's not around and put him thru the "mill" ...heheheheh.....which will also be much fun.
Must say, there is some exciting news ahead....yes...that's a hint. More on that in the near future. Hope you are planning to stay warm and are getting exciting about the upcoming holiday seasons. Love and Blessings....Sherry
