Recovering Nicely

Surgery went well last Thursday. They found a chip in the joint (I don't know if bone or cartilage.) One of my friends prayed that there would be no pain, and that prayer has been answered. I have taken a total of 3 pain pills--2 on Thursday and 1 on Friday morning, "just because." Even went grocery shopping on Saturday, was able to stand for praise and worship yesterday in both services. I am very grateful that this has been so easy to deal with.

New Stuff

My how time slips by! I just looked at my last posting date. Not a whole lot new happening, but it has happened in a whirl. Tomorrow I will be on the other side of the fence at work. I get to be the patient. About a month ago I injured my knee while out playing with the dog. (I guess I forgot my knees are not 25 anymore, but they didn't.) Two doctor's visits and an MRI later, I now face an arthroscopy and debridement of my R knee for some torn cartilege. I will be off work for about 3 weeks. It hasn't hurt much until this week. I had almost talked myself into cancelling the surgery, but I guess that is not to be. My church family has gathered round and will be helping out. That has already started; I walked into my house last night and found some wonderful soul had cleaned my kitchen and living room. It just sparkled! I was ready to cry, because I had not been able to find time with my work schedule to really give it the going over it needed, and now I won't be fretting over it as I try to recuperate. Bless You, Rhonda! May the Lord see your good work and reward you richly!

I went to Granbury over the weekend to see my grandbaby. She is growing so fast! I will post pics later. I haven't even had time to upload them to the computer to see what I have. Maybe that will be a project for the time off. Got to see other family as well. It was a good trip, albeit a short visit, going there and back the same day. I seem to do that a lot.
