Happy Spring!
Finally the snow has melted and we are starting to see some green leaves poking up out of the ground. Probably the one real sign of spring for us around here was that Mr. and Mrs. Duck returned this week for a short visit. One of the first things she did was to check out the area where the nest was last year. They are so beautiful and fun to watch; I hope they end up nesting with us again this year.
Mom had her follow up visit with Jim (her G.P.). He was quite pleased with her progress. He
has cut her water tablet in half. He also stressed that it is very important for her to use her cane as she expressed to him a feeling of unbalance when she walks. Nothing really new, her blood pressure is excellent and he seemed quite pleased with her progress.
She had a pretty busy week this week. Tuesday is the day we go to the grocery and run other errands. She is ususally out from about 10 a.m. to around 2 or 2:30. I think this tires her out quite a bit but she likes going out and choosing her own supplies. On Wednesday we went in to the doctor and stopped at the drug store. Mike, Rick and Debbie treated her to dinner out that night. On Thursday we had lunch with Chris and Teal and she seemed pretty pleased to be out and about. On Friday her cleaning ladies came over. This is usually a busy day for her and also a great opportunity to have someone different visiting.
I know Linda has been busy with her gardens, Andy is working hard on exams, Julie and Cory are busy preparing for moving day and the LaRoy's and Wiehoff's are juggling all their usual activities. Amy is having some work done around her house and busy preparing for Hannah's First Communion. Ken is making slow progress but progress nonetheless.
Sherry, it was so good to hear from you. Please, keep in touch.
If you are reading this -- take a minute to update the rest of us on what is new with you.
Enjoy these beautifu day. bj
