Happy Halloween! It’s not a big holiday here. So it was just a normal day of resting for me. My big outing was to go to the grocery store right next store to our building. They sell fresh juice which while not always delicious is healthy. We got a carrot, apple, ginger, kale, parsley juice. It was a little too kale forward for our taste, but so healthy.
Jeff also joined me on the roof for my daily walk.
This is Stan. He’s not a support sloth. He’s a sloth flashlight. He’s a friend of Sven and Sergio. He sleeps a lot as you can tell.
Today was a tired day, but I rallied and had my Zoom art therapy, Zoom Spanish lesson and walked 1,189 steps. Now I’m as sleepy as Stan.
Today I was still recovering from tge travel days. But I did manage to walk on the roofdeck of our building. I walled 1,000 steps and had to take an hour nap before and after it. But it’s progress.
It feels great to be back in our Panama apartment. Our flight landed at 5am. Even though we did sleep on the plane, we were exhausted. We pretty much just slept and did laundry.
We are on the plane waiting to take off for Panama. Never thought I’d need a wheelchair but I wouldn’t have made it to the gate without it.
I had to take a nap at the airport.
And now testing out these seats that go fully flat. Should be a good flight.
It’s been one month since surgery. I’m a little surprised I’m not further along on my recovery, but my doctors aren’t. They’ve said it will take a full three months.
Tomorrow we take a red eye back to Panama. Our flight doesn’t leave until 8pm, so we have all day to pack and rest up.
Today I needed to rest after going out to dinner the night before. I did have energy to play board games with my parents and Laura. We played a game called Probe which was a board game from the 60’s that my parents played before they had kids. We didn’t really keep score but I think I won.
My parents are back in town for my niece’s choir concert. I pushed myself to go out to dinner. It was tiring but worth it, especially for sweet potato fries.
Today was a good day of resting and reading. Sven and Sergio made us smoothies for lunch. We had to stop them before they added leaves.
Jeff and I went out to lunch today. It required hours of resting before we went and after we got back but it was so worth it.
It felt great to be out in the world. By the end of lunch I was a bit slumped over. Good thing we were the only patrons.
