The rehab staff did all they could do make the residents feel at home. I had beads for Mardi Gras and a bunny on my door for Easter.
Nevertheless, after two months in hospital beds, we opted to sleep in one of the guest bedrooms with twin beds at home because the path to the bathroom is shorter than our bedroom. Two weeks later we have finally returned "home" to our own bed. I can't describe the excitement (and relief).
I am definitely improving at home, but still have my bad days. PT 3 days a week tends to wear me out, but is definitely helping. Next Monday we are making a big batch of chili to "thank" the PT staff for all they did to help me get out of there!
Still no sewing, though, even though I have my travel machine available on the main floor of the house. I did go to Devo on Tuesday for a couple of hours and help make kits for our November "sew day" by ironing which I could do while sitting in the wheelchair. Even though it was great to get out of the house and see everyone, I was exhausted by the time I got home.
On another front, it appears the geese couple have returned to the nesting spot on our bluff overlooking the lake. She had built a nest there in April 2020 ...
...but a late May freeze caused her to abandon the nest.
There was no further activity today, but we're hopeful.
