A day without crutches

My goal today was to spend the entire day without use of my crutches or walker.

I did it.

But I messed up. 

I went all day- I have to say I didn't get up at every opportunity, but when I did, I did my lurching walk.  I put away dishes, answer the doorbell, even went into the crawlspace.


It wasn't until the end of the day, when we went up to the theater to watch a movie that I screwed up.  I had a system of having my 2nd crutch at the top of the stairs.  I went up the stairs without my crutch, but for some reason, I grabbed the crutch and used it for a few steps and realized how silly it was and walked and put it back against the wall.  I'm going to blame it on an old habit.

Since I did it today- the first full day I was released from restrictions, I figure I can do all of them!
