2/4 - DAY FIVE

Woke up this morning and am feeling even better, with the exception of my swollen/stiff knee.  Gonna do as much as I can....

7:30AM - We drove to another facility on the beach for our morning workout.  Did a Boot Camp Workout in the Park, then headed to the Pool.  I don't know how many laps we swam, but it was great on the knee.

10:30AM - We all took our lunches with us, so we had a picnic lunch in the park.  When we got back to our place, there was a package waiting for me.  That made me smile.  Thank you Christy and Danny for the flowers and my sweet new teddy bear.  That will give me something to hold on to, in Toby's absence  :-)

11:45AM - A class focusing on the "CORE".  Ouch, this one hurt.  It was abs and all abs.

1PM - Had a cooking class, cooked healthy "Chicken Parmigiana.  Everyone got to eat, I opted to give mine to Doug, my trainer, since I was headed down to a Personal Training Session, and didn't want to throw it all up.

2:30PM - Personal Training w/ Doug - UPPER BODY today!  Giving the knee a break.

3:30PM - Supposed to have another massage but canceled since I had one yesterday.  Need a little time to go through emails and such.

I can't believe how different I feel today.  I would have never thought that a body could recover so quickly from such trauma.  And YES, that's what it felt like.  I am still a little sore, but it's a "GOOD" sore and each day, I am feeling stronger.  I'm not gonna lie!  I am still having a hard time emotionally.  I can't put into words how much I miss my husband.  We have never been away from each other this long, and I never want to be away from him again, if I can help it.  Going through something like this brings so many different emotions to the surface.  Some that are easy to deal with and others that just plain SUCK!  But knowing that each day I am doing something to make me a better me, for me, for him and for our business, is helping me get through it.  Day 6, here I come......
