Free Bird!

So progress report continues. I went to the ortho (spine) Dr. today and was told that if I had spinal fractures that were closer together, my injuries would have been a lot more serious. Still thanking God every day for the fact that I'm as ok and functional as I am. At 23 I think I got some very valuable insight into life and my current situation.

Best news ever: I can start taking off the brace in increasing 1/2 hour increments every day. Ex. Today =1/2 hour off. Tomorrow = 1 hour off. Day after = 1.5 hour off. Stellar right? It totally made my day. Not to mention I'm going back to work part time at Fox Run tomorrow. Let's face it that's huge too. From a mental and physical stand point. Bring it on Scooter and Sudsy! lol Maybe I'll start sending out the full time resumes too. Can't hurt, right? It feels so great to be getting back to normal and in some ways back to the "old Jess." Every day there are little accomplishments that mean big steps. So we'll just keep on keeping on..and taking it one day at a time.

Anywho. That's the life update for now and I'm sure many more to come!

Cheers all.. and to those of you who can have some of that tasty (missin so much) Finger Lakes vino goodness.. have one for me! =)
