Day 1556

We got up at 7:45 today.  After the pet stuff and breakfast we left for the physical therapist.  I took this really roundabout way to get to loop 1 to avoid the road work on 1826 and the traffic jam on lower loop 1.  It worked out pretty well and I got there early.

It was lucky I did get there early.  They had almost a dozen pages of forms to fill out.  I got them all done and the therapist called a little after I finished.

The session was mainly her asking questions to get a handle on the problem.  How long, what does it feel like, etc.  She also spent a little time manipulating my jaw and neck to judge range of motion limits.  We set up appointments for 4 weeks.  I got homework: sit up straight.

After that we went to Lowe's and Home Depot (because Lowe's didn't have what I wanted).  I got some broom clips to replace the one in the pantry and to attach the club to the underside of the truck's rear seat.  We also went to Best Buy and Sam's Club just to shop, but didn't buy anything.  We stopped at the post office and Tomlinson's on the way home.

When we got home it was lunch - brisket sandwiches.  Then we went out to the garage.  Ellen painted while I replaced the clip in the pantry and installed one in the truck.  I hung the picture John and Patty gave us in the apartment.  I also did a little tool rearranging to make it easier to get things I frequently need.

That was it for useful labor for the day.  The rest of the afternoon was surfing and shopping on Amazon.  Ellen fixed mac and cheese with Rudy's sausage for dinner.  After dinner was TV and some looking for trailer stuff in catalogs.
