PT

I've been to the physical therapist twice now, for nerve problems in my right hip/leg. Of course it is pregnancy-related [isn't everything in my life right now LOL?]. But this is the first pg I have been offered the option of PT to help me out. I loved the massage- nice quiet dark room, with me resting and nothing hurting at all... And the exercises I've been doing have helped a lot. Partly because I am finally able to *do* something about this, but mostly because they're easing the tension on those pinched nerves, and removing the cause of the pain.

In other news, Jared and his dad are taking W with them on a fishing trip to Idaho! They leave Wednesday, and get back late Saturday night. I cannot believe I have a son old enough to go on overnight fishing trips LOL.

And Melinda is coming to visit this week! Hooray! I love visitors LOL.

Oh, one more thing. Rather annoying, and sad, but almost funny too. I had a playdate at my house Thursday last week. And the moms who came, while friends of mine, normally visit me about a specific Church thing. So I'm not used to thinking about inviting other people over when they come. But this was just a playdate, not Church-related at all. And my neighbor across the street (who I like, but she works f/t and I never know when she's home) was mad because I didn't invite her and her kids over. I found this out after Church on Sunday, so I apologized. Because she's right to be upset about it- I should have invited her! Anyway, she totally blew me off. That's the sad part. The almost funny part is that apparently she's been angry with me about something else that happened back in January. And she didn't say anything this whole time, just brought it up as one more 'I don't want to listen to you because you're a bad person' comment after my apology. ?? Why would you NOT say something if it bothered you that badly? And the annoying part is that her daughter and W are friends, and probably won't get to play together anymore because she's angry with me and won't want her kids associating with mine. *sigh* I did my best to make it right- I apologized for leaving her out. So I'm trying hard not to dwell on it, and obsess about what I could have said to MAKE her forgive me. Waste of time, trying to force someone else to do something!

Just remembered- Grandma and Grandpa are both home together again. We were expecting the rehab (Grandpa got a hip replaced) to last through the end of September. But he's strong-willed, and determined to be with Grandma, so he progressed rapidly. Grandma sleeps a lot, and she has a pretty deep cough right now that they're treating with antibiotics. But she's cheerful, and not in any pain. And I'm sure she feels a lot better just having Grandpa home with her again.

No rain today, so it is hot and yucky. But the house is cooler, and we're going to the library for new books and movies, so I think I'll survive.
