Thank you, Sweets....I'm just trying to keep bronchitis at bay. I've always, in the past, "worked through" my colds, just keeping on with daily life, running errands, etc, and poof!! bronchitis. Then I started to actually follow doctor's orders and rest, rest, rest, and have managed to keep it away since then. I have asthma, so it's easy for a cold to turn into something more.....so, I'm resting!
Have a great week, Newfie!!

Well, um....it's a good thing you're not wasting your time... I remember having energy like that once upon a time. I do want to volunteer somewhere, feel useful but honestly the thought of meetings just puts me in a coma; I've been there, done that for so many years, I'm done with them. And with the way I'm walking etc, physically I'm not much good at doing stuff right now. I guess that's part of old age...not feeling terribly useful anymore. However, YOU, my dear, are making up for my shortcomings, even if you are a gazillion miles away!
Stay well, my Friend...

Lovely evening, I found the movie, Shirley Valentine on line and watched it again for the ohhhhhh....I can't begin to think how many times I've seen it! It's such a great movie...funny, poignant, charming...and a brilliant ending; have you ever seen it? I emailed the links to Walks and Hicks today and I hope, hope they watch it!!

Hope all's well in your corner of the world and that you're taking some time to rest between all the activities you're involved with, but they do make winter go by a little quicker, don't they?

Hi, QTPi! I'm finally getting a little stronger, I think....I'm trying to walk as much as I can without my cane..it's tiring, but I want to walk straight and not waddle! The kids are coming over tomorrow afternoon for a Little Christmas...just some nibbles and wine, since they'll be coming over after seeing "Sing" with our grandson, then out for lunch. I'll have my Ukrainian tablecloth on the etable, some Ukrainian porcelain pottery on display, and a little gift for our grandson. I want him to understand a little of his heritage and he's always so interested in the world!
Has life settled down in your corner of the world or are you still a whirlwind?
Have a wonderful weekend, Sweetie!

Thank you, my Newfie Friend! I can't imagine being as busy as you are with your volunteer work; what a lovely person you are! I always feel I should be doing something but May will be 3 years since I originally broke my leg and I'm still walking with a cane or walker!!! I'm so done with it, but yes, I am on the mend, so summer will be a different story. It had better be!!
So has all your shopping, baking and all that you do to prepare for Christmas been accomplished? I'm done here, but before my fall, my late BFF and I would be out every single day just enjoying the Christmas rush and finding "great stuff" for our Daughters....oh, those were some of the best times we spent together!!!
Stay well, rest and gather your strength...stay safe. Hugs!!!

Hi, Screech!! Thank you for the rep, sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, I had physio today, then we did a little shopping then I collapsed into bed and had a long nap. Honestly...just like a baby these days!!
Sweet dreams tonight, Sweetie!

Good evening, Screech!....everyday is Saturday around here, so much the same...but I'm really getting cabin-fever!! DH would take me anywhere anytime, but the other half of me knows that I can't make it very far walking with my walker, and I hate being in the wheelchair: between a rock and a hard-place, I am...

YOU have yourself a lovely weekend, my Friend...God bless!!!

Thank you, Sweets! A pretty good day, I didn't exercise because I didn't want to irritate my new behind-my-knee hamstrings problem, so basically resting my knee today. DH asked if I wanted to get out to the mall today, and whoa Trigger!!! DID I!! Although I hate being in a wheelchair, it was nice to get a little more shopping done for our DD and SIL...GS is done...sooooo...I'm pretty much done! We are saving SO much money with me not shopping every day as is my custom this time of year...hahaha!! We'll be decorating the house and putting up the tree before our GS has a sleepover on the 3rd; he loves all the coloured lights here compared to everyone else's white ones and I'm gong to let him set up my village this year, he's just fascinated with it. Love, hugs and prayers to you and your family!!!

Thank you, Sweetie....taking it day by day, wishing I could do all the Christmas things I used to be able to do, esp baking sweets, bread, cakes; I'm hoping for better days next month...I still have time to heal enough to get to those, right?
How about you? Still keeping incredibly busy?
Bless your heart, Screech!

Thank you, my Friend. It's been a long but absolutely satisfying day! Tomorrow, I rest.
Good night, sweet dreams and God bless you.

Hey, Sweetie! Well, the morning started off poopy, but my physio went really well, 6 more degrees in my flexing...yay...lol. My muscles are quite weak, so I have to continue working on them, but I'm making slow and at least steady progress which is what they expect. But I want to do so much this time of year....!!!!! Thank goodness our Grandson is, according to our DD, "counting the days" until he gets delivery of my advent calendar boxes I make, stuffed with goodies..I'm so happy to hear that he enjoys them so much! He'll remember me for those, I hope!
Have a beautiful sleep, Hon...sweet dreams, and God bless.

Thank you for the rep, Sweetheart....and thank God for nurses who still can remember that patients are people too, and scared people at that, and can take the time to comfort them and make the process as easy as possible for them. I was blessed with such a nurse and the ordeal was far, far less painful than that neanderthal guy who yanked them out last time!!
I hope you had a lovely week...with your kids? Grandkids? LOL...I know so little about you!!!
Have a great weekend ahead, Hon!

Hello, Newfiescreech. I'm sorry I can't be on here as much as I usually am, but the days can still be pretty rough and sitting on this computer chair is so uncomfortable. I do, however, want you to know how much I appreciate your sweet concern and prayers. It's a comfort knowing you're here even when I can't be...love and hugs, Lynn

Hi Lynn .. just drop by say hello .. you been on my mind so much .. hope as each day goes by your getting little better then day before .. sending my prayers to you that your feeling a lot better soon take care sweetie ~sending hugs and kisses make you feel better again

Hi, Sweets...thank you for your kind thoughts and prayers. This will be my 4th surgery on that knee since I broke it in May '14 and it had better be my last!
Take care, my Dear and have a lovely week. {{{hugs}}}

Hope you had a great weekend, Hon! The temps sure are dropping; I don't mind autumn so much since I love snugglier, warmer clothes and comfort foods, lol...but winter? If I never see it again it would be far too soon!
Have a lovely week!
