So most of these pictures were taken around the house. I have been staying in mostly. Being out of work is really taking its financial toll, so I am trying my best to keep my costs down until I go back to work. I'm actually starting back next Tuesday. I am getting a little nervous about my return. Monday, when I decided that I'd definitely go back next week, I had made leaps and bounds in physical therapy. Today I woke up in a lot of pain, my wrist swelled up again, and my wrist movement went back to being awful. I guess I pushed it a little too hard the last few days and so I have taken a few steps backwards in recovery. It's beyond frustrating. I try to stay positive, but days like today make it hard.
Anyway, enjoy some photos of another week on the 'road to recovery' with me:
Sunrise through the curtains. I have to get up really early for physical therapy some days and today was one of those days.

This is the first time I was able to pull my hair into a ponytail since the injury. I was able to clip it in a claw clip, but this is the first time I could maneuver my fingers in and around my hair with just enough strength to use an elastic to secure it into a ponytail.

I thought this was fitting since it was the day Scott Brown was sworn in. I'm currently reading Ted Kennedy's memoir, True Compass, so I find myself more interested in the politics behind this special election. It will be interesting to see what Brown does now.

The scar is tough. It's hardened and I have to massage it so the tissue doesn't adhere through to the bone and cause problems. It's big, and it's gross right now. I don't really like to touch it.
