breakfast in bed
May. 13th, 2012 03:02 pm.
Cathy brought me pancakes.
I was flat on my back for the second day, following a Friday when my back went out (though I could still get around, and even went to Sarah's soccer match in Webster) and a Saturday when it was a long and strenuous effort to turn onto my side in bed, let alone get out of it.
Luckily, Sarah had done most of the groundwork. We had worked up a menu together (at her instigation) to give Cathy, and she made a card with a poem. I had picked up a Whitman Sampler earlier in the week, when I was whole.
So Sarah made pancakes, and Cathy brought me mine.
I'm finding that doing some version of my stretches before I venture out of bed reduces the time it takes to be able to walk without clutching the furniture like a toddler.
I'll get up soon, and get dressed. I hope you're all having a nice day.
