Ramps

My ramps came today so I can freely go outside. It makes things so much easier. Right now I have one 2 foot and one 4 foot ramp. The 2 foot one is nice because it's shorter and doesn't take up as much room, but it makes the angle of elevation a lot steeper, so someone else has to ease me down the ramp. The 4 foot one is really just too long, but I like it because I can do it by myself. I think we're going to get the 4 foot one exchanged tomorrow for another 2 foot one. It makes it more manageable, and this way we can take them to the cottage when we go for vacation.

After the ramps came my mom and I went to Kohl's. It was really nice to get out of the house finally. I got dressed in clothes, as opposed to just nightgowns. Let me tell you, getting dressed makes you feel so much better.

Another big accomplishment, I skipped one of my pills. I'm hoping to be completely off my pain medicine by the end of this week. I think I'm going to try skipping the 2:30 AM pill too and see how that goes, maybe even the 6:30 AM. Then just take the 10:30 AM one and see how I do for the day. It would be nice if I could just do two tomorrow, morning and right before bed. We'll see how it goes.
