It has been 1 month since Marks surgery. At 2 weeks he was driving and moving without crutches. He still spends most of his time in his recliner. I really think he has been enjoying his break, his time at rest and wanted to sit in his recliner as long as he could. He was feeling pretty good, started going to physical therapy and was getting around. At 3 weeks he was starting to get his ache again in his back. Now he is popping his ibuprofen morning noon and night all over again. It makes me sad to see him back on pills. This is his second hip surgery and both were done in hopes of helping his back pain. He gets it on one side just above his hip bone. He never had pain in his hip or felt like his hip was a problem. The orthopedic surgeon thought and hoped this would help. Time will tell and I keep praying he can have relief and get rid of his pain.
The heat is on!! I can be thankful the county fair is not this week. The humidity came back this week along with the heat and today alone the heat index is reaching around 110 in parts of the state. I was outside in the morning with Jayden for some horse lessons with the Spencer girls. It was still a bit overcast until late morning, then wham the heat was out in full force. I have decided I want to hibernate and stay in my A/C the rest of the week! I should be able to with nothing on the schedule for the rest of the week. Let's see if it stays that way. Laundry, cleaning, organizing, blogging, and reading.
It took a few days to recovery from the county fair, rest up, unload, unpack, laundry, etc.Luke had a guitar lesson bright and early Monday morning. It was rough on him to get up and get going. He was a grouch! Later, CeJay invited Luke over and spend the night. It was good timing to keep Luke occupied. He was super excited and had a good time. I am so glad he has found a buddy! That is an answer to prayer. Our trial farrier named Robert came and noon to shoe 3 horses and didn't leave until 5. It was terrible hot and he was building homemade shoes just for the experience.
This week we tried to stay in the A/C and get some rest. CAT naps were a must.
