April Ponderings



Here it is, Sunday, April 7th.
I no longer work part time, I no longer work (away from home):P
I've retired & and am working on recuperating...
I've spent two & a half weeks recovering from arthroscopic surgery & tomorrow is my post operation appointment with Dr. Boes. My big push to have surgery, after suffering a torn meniscus in Dec., was to return to walking an hour a day to stave off the diabetes nipping at my heels:/

My well worn couch has become my friend & my enemy; I need it, but am tired of it:/ I've lived there for a while. Even now the aching knee needs to be elevated often.
I haven't slept well since--two or three pillows placed here & there, tossing & turning to get comfy, 2 Tylenol & wishing before morning I had more--you get the idea.
Physical therapy is probably a given after tomorrow so am hopeful that will strengthen the joint muscles & relieve the pain.

But now I'm looking ahead, & what will I do with this time the Lord has given me. Definitely walking if all goes well, & what else....facing a different season in my life:/

Every day I'm looking through a new window:)
