So if you saw my video about putting on the prosthesis… I was in a rush this morning because I needed to get someplace quickly and didn't have time to fool around with not getting the leg in, so I shorted myself a sock.
I forgot about that when I went to walk - I meant to get on another sock.
I remembered when I started walking, though! lol. Not enough cushion, so I was putting weight on my right leg and arms more, and I tired out more quickly. After 2 laps, it felt like 3. But I pushed another half lap there at the end, so… huzzah for that.
I felt a little unsteady after that, so it was definitely pushing things a bit. I'm extremely paranoid about falling because I don't have the strength to get myself back up. I haven't fallen in more than 15 years, and I'm trying to keep it that way. So I have to play things slightly safe. And today pushed things a little close to that boundary. But it was okay.
Happy Friday! :) Almost two weeks done!

Safety first!! Any movement is progress, so if you need to do a little less than you’d planned don’t be too hard on yourself!

You are doing good! Saturday here, 11.22 am and just got back from the local markets down by the river, too many people for me today so I made a quick round, delivered some lemons to one of the stores who gives me homemade spring rolls in return. Lemons for lunch, good swap. See you tomorrow.

Living in the future! :-O
Sounds like a really great morning :)

A rollator might be helpful. Gives you a seat when you need it.
daychilde
Definitely on the potential list for some point. :)

Always bring your phone with you, at least you can call for help if needed. ( hopefully never)
You're doing great by the way.

Good advice.

Thank you 🫡

That's what's recording on a tripod :) The bad news is that if I do fall, I have to crawl to it - or yell and get the attention of a neighbor. lol
kathlTvVillain
Oh God, any chance of getting another one ? Just to make a call ?
daychilde
I should be okay. It's not that far and the trumpy neighbors are always home.
But if one of my viewers sees me fall, maybe they can call. (Is joke since I have to publish the videos manually) :)
kathlTvVillain
You have Trump neighbours ! As if you hadn't enough going on,
My phone is ancient ! About 25 years old lol. But it still works.
You're not going to fall anyway! You're walking great .
daychilde
That's the plan! :)
And I will say it's an old air force guy and his wife. Very sweet. Just swallowed Fox propaganda. :(
