Dear Achilles, Merry Xmas!

My Achilles received a present today – the electrical stimulation unit arrived by priority mail!

As I told you guys I ran/walked with the dogs yesterday for 10 miles, and I was pretty happy to not be in very much pain from it!  I got up in the night and was a bit gimpy, but nothing like in the past. 

But I wasn’t pain free, either, and that is the goal.  I’m hoping that doing the treatment daily will make a huge difference.  

Chakotay was also a bit limpy from the run, but he is great today – Marc even took the boys for a walk earlier and he’s not limping at all tonight!

I received mostly rave reviews from people for the red hair today!  One person even told me that she envied my “out there” style and I am confident she meant it as a compliment.  One woman I work with told me it was terrible as was the dress I was wearing.  **Sigh** you can’t win them all, I guess…

Overall, I am taking all of this as a good sign that the year is ending on some optimistic notes and am hopeful that the news regarding Marc’s dad tomorrow continues this trend.

  2. Your negative co-worker must be a VERY unhappy person, probably with a jealous streak too. Are people no longer taught manners? i.e., if you can't say anything nice... Ditto from previous comment--Rock on!

  3. Thanks guys - I found it pretty shockingly rude. But let's just say she's not a person whose fashion sense makes me doubt myself - lol
