    Glad you are on the mend! I'm amazed at how people have surgery and go home the same day. A girl at work at carpel tunnel surgery on a Friday and was back to work the following Tuesday. Techniques are getting more and more advanced. At work I work on getting people information about...

    Hi. Been thinking about you. How do you feel? How did it go? Walking will be good for your recovery. We didn't do much for Easter. Tonight we're going out with my oldest and DH's brother to celebrate DS1's birthday! He's 32 today. Time flies for sure. It's beautiful here. We have been...

    Oh my-gallbladder pain is the worst. I'm glad you're able to get some sleep with it. Gone are the days where you could go to the er and have emergency surgery for it-same in my area too It's ridiculous. Health care just wants as many "visits" as possible to milk the system. I hope you get...

    How was your week? Mine flew by. I'm glad you are all feeling better. I think spring colds are so annoying cause you don't want to be in bed all day when it's light out. Yes! Let's plan a trip to Sedona next spring. What month? March, April, or May? I would prefer March because it's...

    I feel like I'm finally back to normal. DH still has a cough, but is otherwise ok. I walked to work two times this week and did my PT strength moves Monday and Thursday. Today I want to do an upper body workout. The weather here is up and down-cold and sunny or warm and rainy. Today is cold...

    I wish I had some energy to clean! I did take some short walks this week, but have otherwise been resting and drinking a lot of tea. We were not able to go on vacation, but it's been nice being off work anyway. I'm glad you got some time off as well. You need it. How is your portfolio doing...

    The virus-no idea which one-has been in our house since last Friday. I was down and out until Thursday. DH started with symptoms on Wednesday. So I have done very little except rest. We're supposed to leave Monday at 6 AM from the airport and I'm hoping DH can manage. Whatever hit us hit...

    I hear you about walking! Finally yesterday it was in the low 30's here and it felt balmy. I got in a a two mile walk with my weight vest and still feel pretty good today so that's a huge win. Next will be trying some hills. My goal is to walk to work when the sidewalks are clear. We still...

    Another week has flown by! Did you see where Cathe is deciding on her next series? Should be interesting to see what she does. I have not done much this week. I walked Monday for 40 minutes and did my lower body PT stuff. Thursday it was really cold so I walked for just 20 minutes and did...

    Thank you for understanding. You would not believe how much better I have been sleeping since I have let things go with my parents. The turmoil I am in trying to accept things is just too much for my mental health. Aaron and I had a long talk about it this past week and it's nice to have his...

    Hi! I hear you about the cold and snow and dark days of winter-harder and harder to stay warm! I heard yesterday that it's only 42 days from then that it would still be light at 7 PM. So hang on. We ended up booking a 4 night stay at a beach on the gulf coast side of Florida in March. We...

    How was your week? Not a whole lot going on here. I'm doing two upper and two lower body weight workouts a week and throwing in a walk or pool when I can. I'm feeling pretty good-my hamstring is still super tight so I'm doing a lot of foam rolling for it. Been baking bread, playing cards...

    Hi! Thank goodness-Aaron is ok. He's back at his apartment. I haven't had a chance to talk to him about the smoke damage. I plan on calling him later today. All is pretty good here. It's nice to be home and I'm planning on doing some deep cleaning this weekend-the cobwebs are taking over...

    Hi! Happy New Year! We had a great time visiting Aaron. His new place is better than his last so he feels good. He's in Santa Monica since last December and even though his company moved some of their offices back to San Francisco he wants to stay where he is. We would be happy to go back...

    We leave tomorrow morning to see Aaron! I ended up taking today off to ease some of the stress. I'm planning on cleaning today and getting the cats all set, getting gas in the car, etc. Feeling pretty good in the hip/leg/foot area (about 80%). I have not gone to PT in two weeks and am just...

    I had a good week. Went to see a show in town on Friday night and have been doing my stretching and workouts with consistency. I actually cancelled PT for tomorrow and didn't have it last week. I feel like I'm as good as I can get for now. We just did online shopping for people-lots of...

    How is December going?! I hope your son in VA is doing well. Does he like his new job so far? I can not even imagine driving across the country. A friend of mine from book club who moved back to Cleveland last year drove from Cleveland to Oregon this past summer to sight see and her son...

    I'm loosely doing two upper body weight and two lower body weight/pt work a week. Other than that just 20 minute walks and 20 minute bike rides when I can fit them in. I feel pretty good with my ankle taped and will continue to do that for a while. The podiatrist said I could walk and that the...
