So Close!

I am about 24 hours away from my follow up doctor's appointment to check out this leg!  All indications seem to be it is healing up and I am optimistic that my recheck will be favorable and tomorrow night I will be sleeping upstairs in my own bed!  CANNOT EVEN WAIT!!!!

Here are my plans once I get the green light.....I am going to take a hot bath for many, many hours!  I am going to clean this house from top to bottom!  I am going to take my dog for an early morning walk!  I am going to hug my boys standing up!  Then my leg will probably swell up again and I will be super sorry about all of the above.  Maybe I will start with the hugging and the bath and work up to the rest!  Lord knows this dirty house isn't going anywhere.

If the follow up appointment requires additional days/weeks on crutches, you will find me screaming into a pillow on my couch/bed.

In other news....

  • Our Love Box Group had another fun outing with our foster family!  We took them to Build-A-Bear, to lunch and had a little birthday celebration for one of the pumpkins that was turning five.  I have some of the most adorable pictures from our outing, but I don't want to post them out here on this world wide web, but when you see me next ask me to show you these darling little children.  I have gobs of pictures on my phone!  Also, it took an army of people to get me from the house into the car with my wheelchair.  Thank goodness I know a lovely army.  
  • I have developed some weird rash on my forearms. Seriously. WHY? I am treating it with anti-itch cream, which seems to be helping. 



  • During my convalescence, while not itching and/or complaining, I have watched all seasons and all episodes of Grace & Frankie on Netflix.  Loved it.  I am a mix of Grace and Frankie - and not all the best parts either!  If you are a woman of a certain age, watch it and laugh hard.
That is all I have for today!  Please stand by for the update tomorrow on my leg.  It is going to be so exciting!  Have a terrific Thursday!

A blank page.  What an interesting thing.  How could something this simple, this plain, this empty feel like such a challenge?  I used to mo...
