Day two of my ankle recovery, and six weeks since the crash.
When it keeps raining, mornings are hard — painful, stiff, and slow.
Still, I try to keep going by focusing on the good. And today, there is good.
The good news: I advanced from wearing the foamwalkingboots 24/7 to using them only when I walk.
And no — I’m still not walking yet 😅
But at least now I can sleep better.
Yupiii. And that is great, isn’t it?
Another very good reason to wake up and live with a stiff ankle: coffee ☕
I wish it were café con leche, like in Spain… but it’s not.
So I adapt.
I found a bonbon coffee, close enough to my beloved Spanish version, and I keep going there.
Honestly? Still cheaper than a therapist. LOL.
Physiotherapy is expensive here, but thank God we have AI, YouTube, and people like me who share their recovery journeys online.
I still have my resistance bands from years ago — back when I used them to become pretty sexy and slim.
Done with that era! 😂
Now they’re officially reassigned: ankle rehab mode.
YouTube music on.
AI‑generated rehab routine.
I compare it with what others did before me and with my surgeon’s notes.
And then… let’s go, girl.
I discovered that doing exercises sitting on a chair actually works well.
And the songs — oh, the songs — they’re amazing. They truly make me happy.
I might even make a playlist for you:
“BrokeYourAnkleRehab” 😄
Every day brings a new challenge and a new discovery. In everything.
Like figuring out how to clean soap off your body while sitting on a bathroom chair, using a non‑movable shower head.
Yes. That is a thing.
But we’ll talk about that another time.
Maybe God gave me this challenge so I could teach others how to survive it — with laughter, strength, and honesty.
But for now, until tomorrow:
Find something fun in everything.
Stay up.
Find a good song.
And get yourself a pot with a long handle to wash those bubbles 😂
Love you, like always.
Be good. Be genuine. Be strong.
