This weekend 5/16/09.

I'm excited about this weekend.

I'm going to the "Great Strides" walk that I go to annually to raise money for Cystic Fibrosis.  It is held at DeAnza Cove at Mission Bay.  It's a nice walk (or wheel in my case).

I'm also going to a Padre game on Saturday night.  I am really looking forward to it.

I am so fortunate to have the mom I do.  She came over to my house and did her version of "Extreme Home Makeover".  It was amazing!  I should have done before and after pics but I flaked.  Just take my word for it.  The before pictures would have been pretty sad.  I LOVE LOVE LOVE the after pics.  The first picture is of my bedroom / living room.  I never want to get out of bed now.  It is soooo comfy.  

Henry doesn't want to get off the bed either:)

Tayler went upstairs and took a sky view pic.

This new little set up is in my bedroom.  My mom made my whole home feel very cozy.

This area was once very cluttered and hard to figure out.  Thanks Mom!!!  I love you!!!

Jackie and I spent from April 14th thru April 17th together.  It was just girl time.  As I have said many times before, I am very fortunate to have her in my life.  Thanks Jackie - I love you.  Here are some pics from our time together.  

Nothin' like some good Cribbage and Gin Rummy games.

Outback Steakhouse is finger lickin' good.

I was freezing!

My last PT session.

Well, today was my last day at physical therapy for quite awhile.  I have not made enough improvement for my insurance to approve my going.  This is very sad news for me.  Although PT is difficult sometimes I know it's good for me.  My therapist told me I have a 4 month period to prove to him/my insurance company that I mean business.  I am going to be spending a majority of my time going to a gym in La Mesa that focuses on people with disabilities to strengthen myself.  This gym has a lot to be desired but it is better than nothing.  I need to commit myself to improving.  I am scared but I don't have an option. These pictures were taken by Kacy at my PT session today.  It may not seem like it in these pictures but the pain was horrible.  He uses this machine to stretch my ankle and leg.  HELP!!!
