Recovery
Recovery is going slow and I hate pain meds they do not agree with me. So far i've mostly slept and watched tv. I am getting bored though. Unfortunately I still get really dizzy. Thats what I hate. My mom and grandma have both brought me over dinner, which has really been more for Tony than me since I haven't really felt like eating. I have started to cut down on the pain meds though I take half of one every four hour but I wish I could stop them altoghter. well I'm not going to say much cause I think I need to go lay down again but I hope you enjoy the picture:)

BBQ'S and FRIENDS
Saturday was Justin's birthday so we went over to Justin and Jenica's for a BBQ. It was a lot of fun. We got to see some old friend's. We caught up with Amy and Derek, I don't think we've seen them since we got married. It's kinda crazy because there are about four of us who all got married at the same time, but we still have to ask how long everyone has been married it just makes me laugh.

Update on the surgery
The surgery is officially April 24th so next THURSDAY! I'm a little nervous about but mostly just glad I can get something done for it. I found out today that I might actually be staying a night in the hospital. They told me it is up to me, so I guess I'll see how I feel and what time I actually go in at. Well That's about it so hopefully something exciting happens so I can write about it.

MRI's and Ankle's
Well I got a MRI done on my ankle on the 31st of March and I got the results today. By the way MRI's are not that bad except for holding still the was torture. So I had to sit at the Doctor's office for about an hour before they even talked to me (that sucked). Then I finally met the actual doctor this time and not just his P.A who was very nice. The doc looked over my MRI's and said I have a subtalar coalition which pretty much I have 1 bone where there should be 2. Which wouldn't be a problem except they haven't totally fused so it is still trying to move. So now I have two options I can get orthopedic shoe-SCARY- or I can have surgery on it. Tony and I have opted for the latter. With the shoe's the doc said I would get about 50% relief from the pain, but with the surgery I should get about 90% which I like a lot better. Plus he said no one really has regrets about getting the surgery. I will lose a little bit of mobility in it, but not much more than what I already have, so I am not too worried about that. The only thing is work, we are a little short handed but hopefully they will work with me. Well thats all I have to report right now and hopefully I can get the surgery soon.
