At this point I just want to get it over with... waiting is the worst part. I'm kind of in a holding tank right now. I feel like one of those goldfish that is stuck in a plastic bag. The GFish can't do anything but wait... it's sort of pathetic.
When will I be able to sit indian style again?
Believe it or not, this is one of my most missed activities. I realize now how much I actually sat around indian style. It was a lot. I LOVE sitting indian style. I can't tell you how much I just want to criss cross apple sauce all day long.
When will pushing and pulling store doors be easy again?
This is one of those things that you would never think would be a problem. Something with planting your feet and using your whole body to push and pull doors... whatever it is, I no longer have that ability. I have to do the one leg swoop with this one right now. I have a new found appreciation for automatic doors.
I used to have no problem literally kicking my own butt with my foot. It's now impossible! I still got the right side, but I don't want to neglect my left butt cheek. It's just not fair. From what I hear, this might be one of those things that I will never get back. The thought of never being able to kick my own left ass makes me a little sad, but in the grand scheme of things... I don't think it will change the course of my life.
I've decided I am going to set milestones for myself. That way I will have a list of things to work towards and then I can cross things off my list as my recovery goes on. On the list? Double left en dehors pirouette. It will happen again!
I've worked up from doing only half bike revolutions for 10 minutes, to ride fully on the bike for 40 minutes. This is great news. I set a goal each day, and then passed the goal before stopping. That's my plan for post surgery recovery.
