Just dropped by to say hello, wanted you to know i have been thinking about you having to sit and recuperate. ..i am pretty sure its fusterating when you are used to being so busy, hope you can relax and find a way to enjoy your down time.

Thanks B&B. Yes, it IS frustrating to not be able to get up and do things. However, now that I have cut way back on my pain meds, I am not napping quite so much, and am able to get some things done on my iPad.

I’m also reading a book, given to me by a friend, called “Flash”, by Rachel Anne Ridge. It is about a young, homeless, donkey, that showed up on a couple’s driveway one dark night, and how allowing him to stay, when they couldn’t find his owner, changed their lives. It is quite a good book!

I am even starting to take little strolls around this small house of ours.

Funny how when you HAVE to slow down for awhile....a simple stroll around the house becomes a mile stone, and another step towards your goal....you got this one !

Awww thanks, B&B! Yes, it's all about perspective. SLOW and steady wins the race, at this stage of things.

By Dr. Priddy diagnosing the contracture, he addressed all my foot problems at once. So, it all boils down to finding a doctors who knows their stuff.

That is the hard part isn't it? You don't know what a specific doctor does or does not know until after s/he screws you up.

The worst they can tell me is what I have already been told right?

But wait, there is more! You also get .... to meet @Devonviolet and maybe @Baymule too

Here is the jar, that is now sitting out on the kitchen counter. He is actually pretty proud of it!!!

Is that a special jar for making sauerkraut? Maybe with a pressure relief "valve"? And ... I assume it has to be refrigerated after you make it since it isn't pressure canned, right?

@Devonviolet I'm behind in reading your journal. So much going on over there and I'm sorry that you are in such pain and have to have surgery. When is your surgery? I may have missed it if you had mentioned it previously.

Your sauerkraut looks good. I will eat sauerkraut but I don't it too much, it's too sour for me.

 

[Bruce]

Oh come on RA, you are sweet enough to cancel out the acidity of sauerkraut!

 

[RollingAcres]

Now aren't you sweet @Bruce !

Oh my @Devonviolet! You’ve had surgery and you are trying to help settle Joe’s affairs! I’ll say some prayers for strength and pain control for you!!
