I Should Say How I'm Doing

I went back to work last week. The first couple days were kind of tough. Mostly, it was just having to get up so early. Everyone was very glad to see me back.

I found out that there were the usual 'doom and gloom' rumors that you'd expect, but there was also one that made me laugh. The two 'doom and gloom' rumors were that A) it would be 2 years before I could even walk again, and B) that my feet had been cut completely off. I laughed when I heard a third rumor, though. One guy had, apparently, been told that I was so calm, and collected when the accident occurred that I had been found reading a book when they came to get me out from under the steel.

The Production Manager has told me that he wants me back at my old job on Midnight shift ASAP. I am hoping the doctor will take me off restricted duty when I see him next. My left foot is fully healed, and my right foot is only slightly swollen right now. I am hoping by Tuesday the swelling will be completely gone.

With the great weather we have been having lately, I have been looking a little closer into what would be needed for me to buy a house. Its still going to be a few years off, but I still plan to buy one. I am also beginning to consider possibly renting a house until I can afford to buy one. The second option, though, requires a roommate.

I've also been reading a book on traditional Okinawan training tools, and methods. I definitely want a house with a decent sized yard. There are at least two tools that are built from tools, and can be 'planted' in the ground. I would definitely want them outside, so that I could use them in different types of weather. It has been a long time since I have had an opportunity to do a kata barefoot in the snow, or in the rain. Especially with the second you want to be close to home, so you can dry off quickly when you're done.
