Visits from family

A Great Saturday!  Lee was able to walk outside the condo twice today.  In the afternoon we went for a drive and found some really good food at Boston Market.  We knew that Todd and Chase would be here around 5:00 and we decided to have them for supper.  I had never used Boston Market before and was pleasantly surprised at how good the food was. I'm sure we will try that again!
This has been one of those days for Lee to rest from a busy week at the Center for Living and for me to catch up on laundry.  I had planned to try to catch up on some sleep but since I am not a nap person, just could not do that.  I had too many other things to do.

It was good to have a visit from Todd & son, Chase.  We enjoyed our meal together and as usual, Grandaddy Lee and I are always amazed at how fast our grandchildren are growing.  Seems they were babes in arms just a short while ago.

Lee and I are excited about his number of completed sessions at the Center for Living.  Once he completes 23, we will be able to come home for some more week-ends. (that is, as long as we do not have the Monday Clinic visits).  At least that is what we are hoping for.  I think I told you on my blog last week that I was having a problem with my ankle.  I have not been to the doctor, but based on my own observation and my confering with the internet , I believe I have a slight tear in my achilles tendon.  My ankle is now black and blue and I continue to have to walk with an ankle brace.  I am still taking ibuprophen and it is getting better...................This aging thing is no fun!  I would like to thank Angie for her advice on exercises to prevent a recurrence.  I will begin the stretching exercises as soon as this heals.

To our neice Eleanor...................HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!  Know that we love you and are thinking of you way out there in Colorado! 

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

  1. We read your blog last at Don and Linda's so I could show Linda how to post a comment. Checked this morning to see if it had gone through and low and behold, I DON'T KNOW HOW to post a comment either. So here I am trying a different path. I will check later to see if it went through. Your reports lately are really uplifting and encouraging. We hope that they continue and that Lee is eating lots of milkshakes and steak and potatos with gravy and biscuits.
