ACL/Meniscus Update: Done with Physical Therapy

-

We are coming up on a year since the incident! I finished physical therapy before the new year, and it was very anti-climatic. I didn't pass one of the hop tests at first, but my PT challenged me to try until I got it. I was finally able to pass after trying 5 times! He was going to pass me without it, but I was stubborn and said that i wanted to pass with a 100% or not at all. I have missed going, but I definitely do not miss all the bills haha. 

He said that because I was consistent with the exercises that I was able to complete PT way faster than anticipated!

I still don't have full range of motion in my left knee, which is only noticeable when I try to put my foot to my butt.

Please Keep Your Clothes On!!!

One day as our dad cooked dinner and my sisters and I were setting the table we decided that like Snow White's annoying 'whistle while you work' admonition we also needed something to do while we worked. Suddenly without a word of warning all us girls suddenly burst out singing ' Clothes Off' by Gym Class Heroes. Dad was horrified! As we all shoulder shook, and sang into our forks he just shook his head at our craziness and went back to cooking.... I would like to see Snow White and her animal posse do that. "We don't have to take our clothes off to have a good time, oh no......"

There are no good reasons to be 13. I think I'm going to skip to 14!

This is the semi-positive side of turning 13. Yes this is as positive as it's going to get. So on with the list....... 5. I can regularly watch PG13 movies. (It's not like I want to, I haven't watched a good movie in a long time. I sincerely doubt that PG13 movies are better.) 4. It'll be one year before I can start Seminary! (I can hardly wait!) 3. I can join the "special" group of girls that are already 13 . (They all sit in a corner and call it their seats. *gag* Never! You'd have to kill me first to make me sit over there.) 2. I still have 4 months to wait! *exhale* That's a really good thing. 1. And the number one thing is......... Monkey and I will be twelve for a whole stinky month. So when I turn 13 I'll finally be older than her again! *Hallelujah* *I know it's a while till my birthday but Ms. Cat Lady brought it up yesterday. Oh! And she may be 13 but she's not in the little group . I don't actually notice a difference. I

A book to feed your hunger!

I have just finished reading Scrambled Eggs at Midnight at midnight on Friday. I decided to read it after Cameo recommended it a couple months ago. Yes, I know it took a while but it was completely worth the wait. I wasn't enthusiastic about reading it at first, but as soon as I read the first line where she says,“My mother is a wench. It says so on her w-2″ I knew I was going to love it. Sure enough I "ate" it up, and it was really good. Thank you for recommending this book to me Cameo, and to all of you that haven't read this book you should! *Especially those of you who are hungry for a good book.*
