My trip was very relaxing. Our hotel was oceanfront so at night we just go to sleep with the window open and listen to the ocean. I liked staying in the resort but I did not like the beach so much. For one, I wore sandals so the sand and rocks got in my shoes and hurt my left foot. I dont know about you all but a crumb feels like a nail to the bottom of my affected foot so those seashells and rocks made it hard for me to walk whenever they got in my shoe especially when the sand was really thick. On the brighter side, the water felt good to my foot though. The only other thing I did not like was my bathing suit. I always wear jeans because I hate when people stare at my brace on my leg. so wearing the skirt with my bathing suit made me feel like all eyes were on me. Does anyone else feel that way? That is also the reason I choose not to wear dresses :( Other than that, my vacation was pretty good. It felt good just to get away and relax.

Today I had jury duty but the trial was dismissed until tomorrow so I am done for the next 2 years. I also started back at my internship so I ended up staying at the courthouse for almost 11 hours today. I really wish I had a car! Speaking of driving, my hearing with the DMV medical review bored is scheduled in July. I really hope I dont get turned down for the 3rd time. Speaking of appointments, I go see my pain management doctor on Thursday and the neurologist next week. So many appointments! I just hope they're all worth it.

Glad you enjoyed your vacation. I, too, have never really enjoyed walking in the sand, but I sure do love listening to the ocean and having a warm breeze come in on the balcony of a hotel room.

 

I am truly keeping my fingers crossed for you with the driving. Please keep us posted.

Katrina,

 

Glad to hear your beach getaway with Dad went well for the most part. My affected foot too is sensitive and the slightest smallest thing to step on seems like a boulder. When I go out in public I wear slacks as I'm self conscious about my brace as well. Between the brace and my velcro tennis shoes I'd look like a character belonging on the Beverly Hillbillies if I wore a skirt.

 

You've been quite the busy young lady besides your trip. Best wishes with the medical review board. Hope 3rd time is the charm for you.
