Wordless Wednesday



As some of you know my Mom lives in Arkansas. I never thought of her being in danger of deadly tornados until I was watching the news earlier this week. Thankfully she and her husband are doing fine. That was the best news of my day yesterday. 

My thoughts and prayers are with all those affected in Moore, Oklahoma. <3

My Weekend

This weekend was pretty good. Because of my injury I don't get out much and do many things but I try to make the best of it. :)

Friday, my husband and I took a trip to Walmart! I know, so exciting! Ha ha. We didn't need anything in particular but it was nice to just get out of the house. I ended up getting this wonderful maxi dress. It's super long and comfortable! I added a belt to it to dress it up a little. It comes in other colors and I can't wait to go back and get more. 


Saturday, we stayed in and did some chores around the house. Our L.A. Kings are in the playoffs so we spent the evening watching the game and cheering them on. 


Sunday, we had a wonderful date night at our local Poquito Mas. It's a small Baja Mexican franchise restaurant here in California. Not sure if they are in other states but its one of my favorite places to eat. I got a chance to wear my new dress and had a great make-up and hair day! 


I also started doing Simple Pilates this weekend! I have a great video that walked me through all the exercises. I was surprised at how many of them I knew from physical therapy. I skipped a few of the higher intensity ones and spent a lot of time focusing on my breathing and "scooping" my lower abs. Stronger core leads to a stronger back.  Slowly but surely I'll be ready for surgery. 

I hope you all had a great weekend! :)

Hey Stranger!

I just thought I'd drop in and give an update. :)

Our computer decided to stop working hence yet another break from blogging. I was hoping to have a new one by now but it may take a bit longer. For now I'll try to post as often as I can on my phone. :)

I haven't even been able to read many blogs and feel so behind! Hopefully I can catch up soon! I miss my bloggy friends!

As for an update, not too much going on. I met with a psychologist for a pre-op evaluation today. It wasn't the best news but he did say with weight loss and some core strengthening work outs, I should be ready for surgery. Slowly but surely I guess. I'm still moving forward and taking each day as it comes. 

The book I was given by the Doctor. Getting ready!

Can't wait to catch up with everyone soon! Hope you are having a great week!
