Busy Week
The last few days have been eventful!
First, Colleen went on a business trip to Chicago. She had a great time! She went to the House of Blues (twice!), a White Sox Game, and countless other attractions! I got to see a good portion of her trip in the 276 pictures that she took! 
On Monday, my friends Mark and Christie finally arrived in town on their 30 day cross-country RV trip. They’ll be staying in Vancouver for 6-7 days before going down through the states, so it will be a short visit with them. We haven’t seen Mark since my wedding, but we talk frequently. (Gotta love text messaging!). We went to visit them at the campground that they are staying at in North Vancouver and had dinner and took the kids for a swim. We’re planning to see them a couple times before they move on!
Yesterday I had my first follow-up appointment, since my surgery, with the neurosurgeon. He tested my range of motion, checked the scar from the incision, and then said that I seemed to be healing well. I asked him a few questions about some discomfort that I’ve felt in my back and leg and was relieved to hear that it is very normal to have that.
Today I started physio. Just starting off with stretches and a some basic core muscle exercises, but I’m hoping to progress quickly.. Ideally, I should be able to return to work within 4-6 weeks!
That’s about all for now..
