All was well...until driving home

The drive up (31 miles) and church were both good.

Driving home I became weaker and weaker and it was hard to get out of the car in the driveway.

Three hours later, I'm feeling better. Not 'good' but 'better'.

Now comes a whole week of hopefully progressing.

We shall see.

It was great to be back at Trinity and to see the people there.

Well worth the trip.

our 'president'

 I couldn't bring myself to capitalize the "p" since I don't consider djt to be 'MY' President.

He was to meet with Russia's leader in Alaska alone.

Now, 'maybe', the Ukrainian President will be there too....

Our 'president' can't get things straight.

But there will be a ballroom in the White House!

We are in such a mess because of trump.

Pray for our country.

AND--speak out!


Church tomorrow

I plan to drive to Milton tomorrow.

I haven't driven for over a month.

Bern doesn't plan to stop me.

I'm pretty sure it will be okay.

"Getting back to normal" has been a long time coming.

Can I keep it coming?

We shall see tomorrow.

Keep me in your prayers....

Brigit

Bern told me that Brigit, our dog, wouldn't come downstairs if not on a leash while I was in the hospital.

And now, being home, Brigit seems worried about me. She hangs around me more than usual and follows me wherever I go.

As I write this she's laying on the floor two feet behind me.

I take her as a good luck charm--and I need one!

Brigit is a dream....

Mid-week

Saw my personal doctor today.

She was very open and forth coming.

Answered most of our questions.

I'm hoping to get better each day. We shall see.

The news out of Washington about Epstein and his con-sort is next to nothing.

No surprise there....

Better today

 In spite of the non-sense down in Texas, I'm feeling better today.

Legs have stopped itching. Back pain is less. Walking very well.

Bern is going crazy trying to keep up with my Meds and seeing contradictory orders from the doctors.


Alas and Alack!


I've lost all track of baseball and I'm not sure whether to jump back in or not.

Reading a book and a half a day--enjoying that.

But would like to prove to Bern that I can drive so I can cruise around town and do some stuff.

I hope to drive to Milton for church Sunday--really miss church and the folks there.

We shall see....

Hospital again!!!

Just got home again after spending 5 nights in the hospital.

Low sodium in the blood and some other things.

Hard to be in a bed in a hospital when you feel fine--that's the way it was....

Swelling in the ankles and legs is gone. Walking better.

A whole list of doctors to see.

Pain in my back and shoulder from all the time in bed.

When will it all be over????
