Follow the Yellow Brick Road!

Oh boy, the last two weeks have been amazing and relaxing, on the same token I am sure I put on about at least ten pounds (and enjoyed every bite of it) but the details of that will come later!

I almost feel like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz. My goal is to get to the Emerald City, but it is a very long journey to get there.  Right now I have to rely on a wheelchair to get around (ok, any distance more than about 20 meters) which makes hitting the gym a little more interesting that I would like! I think my yellow brick road goes straight up the side of an insane mountain!

Tomorrow I get to go see my rheumy, he is planning on putting me on a new medicine, maybe that means I get to come off of one or two (hey, a girl can wish, can’t she!).  Then I have mommy duties rest of the day.  I am really not looking forward to Tuesday, the VA has figured now would be a good time to send me to pain and torture (aka physical therapy).  I am really hoping I can move after that appointment, worst case scenario I will call my mom and ask her to come pick me up.  Luckily Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are normal days.  I am hoping to visit the gym every day this week.  I am shooting for either pool time (swimming laps, not walking them) or floor Pilates. Either way it will be interesting because I will be trying to get in a GOOD workout without pissing off my lower body! Oh! And tomorrow is weigh in day! Not looking forward to seeing the number, but I am pretty sure I am prepared for what I will see!
