So much been going on lately, mostly doctors appointments. Thelma and I are done with therapy thank heavens. She, being 84, did so well with her knee replacement. I just knew she would as she has survived cancer twice in her life. She comes from good stock. Farm life and 14 brothers and sisters.
We’ve dodged the hurricanes so far but there is a couple that could cause some problems. Keep your fingers crossed.
This has been one of the hottest springs and summer since we’ve been here. 90s and very humid. Just staying home and enjoying the A/C daily.
The woods behind us are gone and water and sewage pipes being installed as I write this. Lots of hammering coming soon. I understand they will be upscale condos which is a good thing.
September 26 I have a hand doctor appointment. Need to get rid of these hand tremors and aggravating sore thumb. I wear a brace most of the time and a pressure glove the rest of the time.
I think I mentioned the Thelma has mild to moderate dementia. She is taking a med that helps slow down the progression but there is no stopping the disease yet. I do help make sure she gets her meds in the right order. She forgot how to start the washing machine. I get it started for her and she takes over. I am making most of the meals and I don’t mind it at all. I just hope I don’t make her ill with my cooking..
That’s enough info for one day. Promise I will do better in bringing this up to date more often.
