Late Blogging

Another day into feeling better, more motion and mobile. Things are going well so thankful for having family ----great encouragement--thanks! Mass this AM, a few errands, then home to read and chill (although the temp was up to 72 degrees).

Plan to take the rest of weekend off from blogging to do some more chilling. Getting good at chilling, reading, and visiting w/family.

Great Day

Mass this AM, then read, listened to IPOD, watched DVR shows in front of fireplace, even worked in a nap. That is what I call a great day considering where I was last week at this time. Limbering up for more activites tomorrow ---- 69 degrees in the forecast.

Better, better, better

Truly feeling better. Sitting by the fireplace, watching some DVR recordings, and visiting w/family. Hope to stay up longer today and feel I can. Each day is better. Six days down/Eight to go before stitches removed... will feel even better after stitches removed.

Sun shining, warming up this week. Plan to get out, walk the court before the week is over---then off and around the block. The "boys" are loving having company. Do not know what I would do w/o dog helpers--thanks Keith, Becky, Kevin, Vicki, Terry. (Had to give credit to Vicki for supplying their apple treats.)

Stay healthy, safe, and in touch.

Stuff

Don't know what I would do w/o Terry. Truly an angel.  Getting around well. Stitches out on 02/02. MD said the first 2 weeks would be rough. Taking no pain medicine except for  2 Tylenol before bedtime. Counting off the days--8 more to go. My days are composed of  sitting, standing, napping, listening to my IPOD, visiting w/Terry and chillin. "Boys" are a mess---in constant watch over their food source (Moi and Terry).

Stay healthy, safe, and keep in touch.

Nice Indoor Day

Mass this AM, then home to stay in and stay warm. Ten degrees, still dark, no breeze, no moisture----just chilly. Anyone coming to KS best bring warm clothes---real warm clothes.

Have to share one of yesterday's Mass readings: "The LORD bless you and keep you! The LORD let his face shine upon you, and gracious to you! The LORD look upon you kindly and give you peace! (Reading from the Book of Numbers.) 

Have a great day, staying warm, healthy, safe, and in touch.
