Treadmill time!

So much to report!
First, I got my $%#kicker steel-toed boots that I plan to wear to work. They are stomp-proof and body fluids proof, so they fit the bill. Then, I got on the treadmill...very cautiously. Did a quarter mile at 2 miles per hour on the flat. It was very weird...like I had forgotten some of those muscles in my legs. No problem with the foot, so I'm going to ramp it up today to a third of a mile....felt good to actually do some walking, no matter how gingerly.
Later on today, I get to see the orthotics guy and see what kind of gizmo he can make for me so I don't flap around in my shoes once I don't need my dressings any more.
Then, tomorrow morning, I get to go to work! A teeny, tiny shift, from 8 to noon, but, hey, I'll take it! If all goes well, I'll get back to more substantial hours in December, but I'm tentatively scheduled for 12 mini shifts this month. That will bring in some bucks while I'm waiting for my disability to come in.
We finally got some rain here and snow in Mount Shasta. It's amazing how different the weather is in our little banana belt of Lake Shastina. I have to get on the freeway cams just to see what the drive will be like.
Very pumped about Obama getting elected. It feels even better than when Clinton was elected, and that was pretty darn cool.
