Tuesday Tidbits

Pretend I have a really cute Tuesday Tidbits button! If someone wants to make me one I will love you forever and possibly send you some beauty items....jussayin. Mini secret giveaway goin on right here!

Hey hey hey guys! I'm so peppy and happy today even BEFORE my coffee today, and here's why:

~My Public Safety driver today was the one who calls everyone "hun" and whose car smells like coffee. Seriously, it was like straight up Starbucks scent this morning, and I was in dire need (only just now am I getting my daily dose of coffee!) so I was almost tempted to reach over and pretend that "oh, I thought that was my cup! Whoops, sorry!" But I didn't. Round of applause for self control, please.

~It was a really positive day for everyone in physical therapy today- the other guy who injured his foot and had previously been wearing an AirCast like I am now finally took his boot off and is walking without it! You go boy! His bruises are every shade between black and purple, I swear. I didn't know there were that many different colors on that end of the color spectrum....

ANYWAYS!

Livin' up dat PT lyfe.

~I had to be put in the torture tub again today, but apparently it was only 45 degrees, which the guy who works the tub area says "is too warm." So of course he was taking shovels of ice and dumping them in the tub, but he didn't dump them on my foot again today, so that made me exponentially happy. It was bearable today & there were no cold-water anxiety attacks, thank goooodnezz. I was so proud of myself for putting up with it comfortably, unlike on Thursday.... Another impressive thing I did today is that I picked up a cup and a half of marbles with my toes, and it took me a lot less time than usual because my sausage toes have finally stopped swelling so much! This happened over the weekend and made me super happy. My foot looks normal when by itself, but then you put it next to my un-sprained foot and it's practically purple. Gross.

~Most importantly of all, on my journey to the torture ice tub of Arctic death, they got me to walk. On both my feet. At first I only had one crutch, and since I wasn't wearing a shoe on one foot, it kind of looked like I was going to face plant, so they gave me my second crutch. I wasn't even wearing my AirCast and I was PUTTING WEIGHT EQUALLY ON BOTH FEET and actually walking like a regular human being! It really was starting to feel like I wasn't going to be able to walk normally again, and today gave me hope. I'm really so excited about this- I can stand on both feet without too much pain now too!

~IT SNOWED TODAY! It was more like sleet and didn't stick to the ground, although my mom sent me pictures from back home and there was definitely an inch sticking to everything there. Here, however, it was just really wet rain that looked white while it was in mid-air. I was terrified with all of the wetness and my crutches on the rubber stairs in the art building and the perfectly polished and shiny lobby floor in the business building, since I've wiped out when it's rained in both of those locations before :( I've been good so far today, probably because I can walk when I crutch now, so I'm relying less on my crutches.

~My roommate from CA just checked the weather for back home and the low today is 54....which is the high for the next week here. It's currently 70-something there, as we were sitting in the snow this morning...why, East Coast, why?! She also just said to me, "Guess how many pairs of pants I'm wearing today!?!" I've taught her the rules of layering well. Good job, my young grass hopper. 

~I've been testing so many new products lately...face products, a toothpaste I'm in love with....What I'm Loving Wednesday is going to be chock-full tomorrow! I'm super excited and should start gearing up now....at least with the picture-taking! 

~I'm uploading my giveaway to my beauty channel as I type! I'll talk about it a bit more in a separate post when it's live! Let's just say that if you're following my blog, you're already one step ahead! (;

What are you tidbitting about this fine Tuesday?
