Yesterday was 3 weeks post-surgery. Monday I was in the house most of the day, so yesterday it was good to get out early, even just for physical therapy. I was achier than usual - the muscle in the back of my thigh hurts. I think I did too much in the house on Monday, just cleaning and stuff.
When I got back from PT Theresa called, and we went out shopping. She took me to a bead store in Wakefield to look for a necklace clasp, then we went to Bed Bath and etc, TJMaxx and Marshalls... she was looking for something specific, I just picked up things along the way. When we got back here she wanted to help me hang some things on the wall that I've been meaning to do for oh... 3-4 years! We hung my colorful lizards in the kitchen, the BATH shelf in the bathroom, and 3 items on my bedroom wall. She also suggested ways I should rearrange my bedroom. She has practically re-done her whole house herself, so she knows what she's doing. She suggested moving my long mirror to behind the door, freeing up wall space. The problem right now is that there is just stuff everywhere in there - clothes all over the place, etc.
The impetus for this was that I bought a modern looking set of hooks to put in my closet so I could hang my handbags. She thinks it's too nice to put in the closet but I don't have anything I want to hang on my wall (like scarves etc,.) so we left that for now and hung some small prints.
When she doesn't concentrate on her ongoing personal issues, she can be fun to be around, and she really is good with decorating ideas AND the implementation of the ideas... that's where I kind of lose momentum. There's so much more I'd like to do, but she starts work in a few weeks.
