Recovery....

I'm alive! 4 Pins, screws and staples later... I'm alive. Pained but healthy.



Surgery went well (longer than expected) for both feet. I have to be honest and tell you that this has been very difficult. Having to rely on everyone to do little things like pour water, carry you to the bathroom, basically baby me.... made me feel completely helpless for weeks. I've always been the strong independent "I can do it" one, to know I wasn't was difficult for me. I am so thankful for the friends and family that helped and made an effort to make me smile. I am so blessed to have them love me... feeling thankful!

Now I'm up and more mobile but sporting plastic removable casts and a black cane for longer distance walks. Ill be back to work next week and looking forward to my new role. 

Yep a new role! I was recently promoted and I've been on cloud 9 since. I figure I have a month to get comfortable before school begins in the fall since I've signed up for 3 night classes to boot! New job, 3 classes and 2 new feet! Ready for this exciting half of the year!

My summer has been one of the quietest summers thus far but I've come to accept it. Healing is more important than anything right now. Summer 2014 has been quiet and mellow.... Now come to think of it, my life has been so busy and scheduled this is exactly what I needed to slow down before life takes off!

Some random  (kinda boring) summer snapshots.....

Some of my summer reads while laid up.....& my RH Blanket

Celebrating one of my best friends beautiful Parisian inspired Bridal Showers - rocked my surgery boot as best I could! 

Loving my Panama Hat by JCrew, it runs a bit big so size down if you order online (it's a JCrew thing....)
