In cast at home

Getting around at home is not too bad. The banister annoyingly ends too soon near the half way point which makes climbing up the stairs slightly more scary than it should be.  Find myself mainly using the sofa and foot stool - most comfortable situation. The children are mostly helpful. Frustration comes when I can't stop bad behaviour or can't help with an activity which I think I should be able to do.
I can't carry cups or glasses of drinks. Need to solve this with a travel cup! The family and au pair have been great though. On Friday I went to the children's harvest service at Burnsall church with Heather. Lovely to get out, but wow it was tiring on crutches. I then went with them to the swimming pool.  They have lesson. Again, I'm not used to so much walking yet. I was knackered. Did too much. It's Sunday today and I'm still tired. I didn't know I was so unfit.
I have decided that I need to schedule out my days to include reading, writing, Uke practice, and exercise. I will start that program on Monday.
Today my family are going canoeing. I will join them ( in the van not boat!). I am looking forward to the trip out.
