OFF TOPIC: Whimper
Went to the Foot Dr today. I am NOT healing as fast as expected. SIGH! Gotta
carry Dos Boot around for another 3 weeks! AND stay OFF the other foot even MORE than before.....seems like the right foot is doing MORE than it should to compensate for the left one. Dr x-rayed it to MAKE SURE it wasn't broken also....no sign of it nor of a stress fracture WHEW ! Still have to use the cane to keep me steady. I'm not too pleased right now...no deadheading of my poor roses........back to sitting on the 'barstool' to do the cooking. I cook, the guys do 'clean up' : ) Works for us. DH felt bad for me--he could tell I wasn't happy--so he came out of the grocery store with a new dark purple orchid for my 'collection' Yeah, it got me to smile : ) Guess who's gonna be doing a LOT of EQ 4 studying now.....well! it IS on topic after all : ) Butterfly ( I DID do the annual Christmas Ornament shopping right after my appt....sat in the car whilst DH did a bit of grocery shopping....then back home. Had some NICE help in the store--looked in the Ornament book--told the gal what I wanted and she got it--even carried my pkg to the car : ) |

We don't get very many of these when we actually feel fine, just can't get around. And I know how hard it is, cause I've been there too. But I always regretted that I didn't take better advantage of it. Sit, sew, read, NAP, all those things you've always wished you had time for. Cooking??? THEY all should be cooking for you AND cleaning up. And be thrilled for the opportunity to serve their Queen! Demand more. Cindy |

I enjoy cooking--you did notice I did NOT say anything about laundry or
those other things commonly called 'chores', right : ) Think I will take your advice and just 'play'....might even have DH get the card table out and start on a Quilt Puzzle (Firefly or Ocean Waves or Oregon Trail)--when it's finished I will have it framed and hung in the Butterfly Studio. Thanks for giving me the idea. Sure glad I did whimper ; ) Butterfly "teleflora" wrote in message news:_oYYe.76920$Sj1.3640@okepread04... "Butterfly" wrote in message ... Went to the Foot Dr today.

Already on calcium Plus D and Vit B-12 shots. Dr is pretty sure it is
'delayed healing' cause of being on Prednisone for 6 years... Haven't done anything with magnesium. Butterfly "Quiltshophopper" wrote in message ... calcium and magnesium suppliments and stay off it. Dr. cyndi |

So sorry Butterfly. Still, more rest can be fitted into the schedule, I
dare say! And, actually, the opportunity to study your design programme could be huge fun - and you wouldn't have to explain your time at the computer to anyone!! 'cos you'd be obeying doctor's orders and yet 'working' g Hope the 3 weeks pass quickly for you. You'll be taking care, so this time I'll say 'have some sitting down fun'. ..
