Ah....Summer

I can't even begin to describe how busy I've been lately. My husband just got a new job. I'm so excited for him!

I've been busy with work. There's a lot going on at the company I work for.

We've also been in the process of moving. We finally have our own apartment! It's been a long time in coming and I'm so glad it's finally here.

Because of the move leg has been in a lot of pain. I've been moving things in and setting them up. Sometimes it's a few hours before I can finally sit down and just relax for a few minutes. Even then I need to get right back up and back to work.

It's times like these I'm glad I have the stimulator. The last time we moved I was completely useless. I was still in recovery from the implantation so I couldn't bend, lift, or twist. All I was allowed to do was sit on the couch (I also couldn't sit or stand for more then 20 minutes at a time) and direct people. I'm so glad I can actually be useful this time.

This was a big week for me. Not only did my husband start working last week, and we got an apartment, but it was also my birthday this week. My husband planned such a great couple of days for us. The night before my birthday we met some friends at the hibachi grill. It was so much fun and the food was delicious. I even managed to escape embarrassment because no one called birthday on me :D

On my actual birthday my husband brought me to an amusement park. It rained the whole time we were there, but that actually ended up being for the better. The rain wasn't heavy, but since it was raining the park was pretty much empty. We got to do everything we wanted to and only had to wait in 2 lines the whole day!

I will say that ever since then, though, my leg has been screaming at me. I've spent way too much time on my feet in the last week. Hopefully this weekend the move will be over and my husband and I can just relax for a while.
