Week Two

It's been two weeks today since I had my right knee replaced, and it aches constantly. Fortunately, there is medicine for that so I am doing the best I can to rehabilitate quickly. Jay's patience is completely gone and I'm worried about us getting back to being nice to each other. I think Jamaica will be helpful- we definitely need some time away from responsibilities. He's been pushed to his limit having to handle everything and nurse me.

I want to point out, and have, that it will get better soon. I will be taking Spencer to and from school, which means he will get more sleep. I am looking forward to being able to walk again and finally get Cassidy into being a happy dog with daily walks. I've already noticed that I have more time for Spencer. That is so important to me. My Dad is coming to stay with him for our trip. My mother isn't, so that relationship is over as far as I am concerned. I am not even surprised.

We are going to brave my unsteady knee and go to dinner for a friend's birthday on Saturday. It's really soon, but since I have about two and half more weeks before I have to navigate an airport, I figured it would be a good start. Also, these are our friends with the cool yacht and I would love a repeat invitation!
