Big Hopes & High Dreams

Last night I was so excited to be able to drive MY car to scrapbooking. You may not have realized, but I haven't been able to drive my car in 6 months!!! Being a standard, it was impossible to bend your sesamoid bone to push the clutch in. Last night I really wanted to give it a try. I was able to do it! So, this morning Luke got all his stuff switched over to his car. I went to Bible Study and decided to hit Walmart on the way home. Driving through traffic on military....my foot begin to hurt pushing the clutch in. When I got to Walmart, it hurt to walk around. So, I got my car all cleaned up for nothing (I ran it through the car wash today and cleaned the insides too!!!). Oh well. Looks like I'm back in the Honda until I can push the clutch in pain free.

I'm not really complaining I guess.... I mean I'm in tennis shoes after 6 months of a boot. I can walk Tyndall Park (even if it is 1 lap), I can do my 1 mile walking video at home, and I can go to Walmart by myself....what more could a girl want! Well, all except to be able to drive a stylish little red, Ford Focus.

Keep being patient and all your normal things will return. I know it seems like forever, but you'll be glad you didn't rush it too much once you are healed!
