Five For Friday 9/6/13

Written by Katie. Posted in Five For Friday

1. Medical Stuff:

  • 1 Day of Home Rehab.  I really failed this week at finding the energy or the time to rehab. This obviously has to change.
  • No PT. My “break” is almost over.
  • No doctor’s appointments.
  • I spent Labor Day going to Urgent Care not once, but twice, for an infected toe from a pedicure. Long story.
  • Insomnia. Sigh. You all know it’s my fave (insert sarcasm here). I have to keep reminding myself that, “this too shall pass.”

30 Things: Invisible Illness Week 2013

My 30 things.
