Another day, life goes on.
Still struggling with the senselessness of my aunt's death. Ya I know, she was over 80, lived a good life, had three successful children, 64 years with one man, happy, but a fall in the night killing her? Could happen to any of us anytime. Anyway she'd want me to move on and not dwell on her passing, so I'll try.
Did the ususal exercise yesterday. The hand continues to show real improvement. Finger strength continues to improve. Dexterity still leaves a bit to be desired. Can't move all the fingers at all joints, particuarly the last joint. Still a work in progress. Only been at it a week. The Saeboflex really is not designed to fix all of that. But grip strength, well it really helps that. The Neuromove should be in this week or so, more exercise then, only two months to go until fishing season starts. Assuming the water is soft by then. Still two feet of ice on most lakes at the moment. The canoe is still frozen to the ground, but we did see 50 yesterday.
We are building a brick bread/pizza oven outside this spring. We put the foundation in last fall to let it settle over the winter. As always, if I can figure out how to post a picture, I'll do it after it is built. The wife says any and all of you are welcome to come and make bread/pizza with her, she loves the company. If you are up to it we can have that race down our driveway I spoke of earlier. I will even consider giving a head start, depending on situation. I refuse to use the "H" word. If you use a walker we might shorten the 800' to say 25' or so.
BTW, for those interested, you can see our photos of our house, travels and the area at www.georgelesley.smugmug.com. I would make it a link if I was smart enough to do it. I may post future pics there, I know how to do that. May not post tomorrow, we are off to Duluth (125 miles for guess what, a Dr. and OT appointment). Got to leave at 6AM.
Musing for the day: I didn't make the rules for the game of life, nor even ask to play, but since I am here I am playing the cards I have been dealt as best I can, even though some of the hands are not particularly good. The next hand may be better. Keep on keeping on!
