Beginnings

I am beginning this blog again.............after the computer removed my almost completed blog to you!  So here we go again.  There were some new beginnings today.  Lee and I left Durham for the first time in 3 months.  We drove to Raleigh and visited Dennis and Betsy for a celebration supper for my 70th birthday.  Yes, I have now entered that dreaded decade......the 70's.  My Son asked me how it felt to be 70 and I told him it felt like 50..............and that he would know in two years when he turns 50!  Now that is hard for me to believe!

Oops..........need to stop and give Lee his meds.............will finish later.

Meds are given.  Lee is watching ballgame and getting very sleepy.  He is definitely awake now since I had to give him an injection in his belly.  That is his anti-coagulant.  He will probably be on that for another two - weeks.

Anyway, this has been a very good day.  New beginnings both for me and for Lee.  Lee was able to once again enjoy an afternoon in the courtyard under the gazebo with a vanilla milkshake (sugar-free) while I had my now famous capuccino chiller.  Hope you have tried it.........very good.  It was so good to have Lee able to walk out of the condo and spend some time outdoors.  Glad the weather is cooperating.  August is such a good month.  It's cooler nights give us subtle hints of days that will be more refreshing with less heat and humidity.

We are looking forward to this week for Lee getting to do more rehabilitation.  He is slowly regaining his strength and we pray that he will be able to continue in that direction.This has been a great day with lots of phone calls from well wishers and some surprises too!  We are both beginning to feel the good kind of fatigue that accompanies happy days.  Goodnight to all.

More Later.........................................Brenda
