Day two...

It's day number two, which was definitely more difficult than day number one. Oy vey! The feeling is coming back into my toes, which is a blessing and a curse. I can feel my toes when I try to wiggle them or move them around now, which is good, but I can also feel the pain in them. I am still taking the vicodin once every five to six hours and icing now. I am icing less often than I did yesterday. Now I'm icing for ten to fifteen minutes ever forty five minutes or so instead of every half hour. I slept on the couch last night because I couldn't find a way to lay in the bed and keep my feet propped up. My friend suggested that I get a pregnancy pillow that would keep me in one place when I lay in the bed.

The couch was nothing nice last night. I'm so used to my comfortable pillow top mattress that sleeping on the couch felt like sleeping on rice cakes. I ventured off the couch today to take a bath, which was a lot easier than I though it would be. I can't get my feet wet so I just hung them over the edge of the tub.

I've had some visitors which is nice. My friends have been staggering their visits and bringing me goodies. April came by last night and watched movies and brought me beloved Red Lobster biscuits. Although, a friend of mine (cough, cough, Tiffany) came by today with sushi for herself and none for mio. How rude. :-p Luckily for me Nari said she'd stop by Katana on her way by tomorrow. Thanks friends :-) If I keep this up I'll be shaped like a grapefruit with toothpicks for legs by the time I make a full recovery.
