Milann's life keeps getting in the way.......

Took some shelves back to ikea and go £30 back onto my card so that's my card a little lower and closer to being debt free.
Had my dd and children here looking after me. It was lovely - they went home yesterday and it's all very quiet. It had been my dds birthday when I was in hospital so I had quite a spendy weekend - bought her pressie and a cake (I'd usually make one) for the kids to blow the candles out but it was worth it. Spent £60 in supermarket today but that should last a good while. I always spend more when I take dh with me but haven't got much choice about that at the moment as he is the driver, trolley pusher and bag packer.
Feeling a bit useless having to use crutches.....but I have managed to get out for a short time with various friends/family picking me up for a car ride out. I'm a bit wary of doing too much too soon and making my hands and shoulders sore - been there done that in the past and no intention of it happening again. I'm managing with 1 crutch for a short distance in the house which at least lets me carry a cuppa from kitchen to living room - not sure if I should or not but it's keeping me sane. But my leg is still giving way and shaking and the same area is still tingly numb - I can feel touch but it's different and like pins and needles - I'm hoping it will come back in time as swelling in my spine goes down and nerve is released. fingers crossed and it's just cos the nerve is crushed and not damaged.
I think it might be a long week next week as it's been half term and I've had lots of ladies from work popping in and they are all back at work tomorrow.
I'm going to see The Stylystics at a local theatre on Wednesday with a friend - had it booked months. I didnt think I'd make it a couple of weeks ago when they were all talking about spinal surgery - thought I'd be visiting a different kind of theatre - but the plan is that friend will drop me off outside and then park up and then join me - all I have to then is sit,watch and maybe sing along. It's mind games and planning little things to get through. I'm hoping I'll look back in a few weeks and laugh at all my worries.......last month if I'd have been told I might lose the feeling in my leg I'd have been devastated but when we found out that's 'all' it was we felt a huge relief of what it so easily could have been. Right I'm rambling - off to get my knitting out...
