just checking in
not much happening here. went to the pain clinic this past week --met the new doctor and started to cry! i swear i can't take me out in public anymore. she seems okay but i had really gotten attached to my florida doctor....i guess i did not realize how much! it is pouring rain quite hard today and so the choices to past time are limited. of course there is housework, :cleaning: but as i said the choices are limited. lol. last week we went to the zoo with our grandson connor. it was fun and exhausting! he now can name all the animals and tells us what he wants to see next-----before we know it he will be asking his folks for the car keys! lol. they had two elephants at the zoo and i have always been interested in these animals and thier extensive social structure. while watching them i really felt teary for them being in an enclosed area away from other wild elephants. sometimes i feel that same way about the stroke - that i am in a cage and am looking out at the rest of the "free" world. i must be a slow learner cause i am still dealing with the fact that this stroke stuff is not going away. today i went to get fitted for a new brace at the rehab clinic - i am never keen on going there even though i fit right in! watching patients come and go as i waited i was once again touched by the strength of the human spirit. in all honesty i can say here (nowhere else) that i am still angry about the stroke. yep, i am rebuilding my life and and am blessed with good friends and family --but sometimes i am just plain *beep* at fate! on another subject my ribs and muscles are starting to feel a bit better --i guess they take a bit of time to heal..... :nuhuh: no more bear hugs in this house. that's it for now --take care everyone and have a great week.
