It's fixed! Mood
Tuesday, July 1, 2008 | A General Update story

Tuesday July 1:  The 1st of July already!  Or as my eldest son would say when he was little, July the oneth.  Jim, from United Seating came about 11 this morning and was able to repair both footplates on Rob's chair!  Woohoo!!  Rob said it was because they told Jim not to leave us until everything was the way I wanted it.  Who cares, at least the chair is fixed.  Also got his script taken care of and picked it up earlier this afternoon.  Went and donated blood after dinner.  I was surprised that I was able to as I have trouble with my iron levels.  My iron was at 46, which is real good.  My pulse was only 66 and BP 120/78, so, I did pretty good. 

  No water aerobics last night as the pool was closed and since I knew my sister had some stuff for me and I her, I drove over to her house and we went for a walk. 

  I had the opportunity to get a visit from my neice and her 2 youngest today.  It was nice to see them.  She also brought out 2 large bags of clothes from my sister, her mom, that she is not able to wear any longer.  So, if they fit, I now have several new tops and pairs of slacks to wear.  I rarely shop for new clothes for myself, so this is a treat for me to have new items. 

  The weather has been very nice around here.  A little cool in the morning but, by noon, shorts weather.  Could use a little rain but, I'm enjoying the sun.  Tonight is a sleep downstairs night for me.  I don't like doing it as, I don't feel I get as good of a night's sleep as I do when I am in my bed.  But, I do it because I care about Rob and it can't be much fun to be downstairs night after night alone.  I do have a baby monitor set up as well as an intercom so I can talk back to him but, it is not the same for him.  Sacrifices we make for our spouses. 

  My son has come back on here, though, he isn't on as often as I.  He goes by BayCityWolf.  Look him up sometime and say hi.

    How great his chair is fixed!! Your health indexes are super. I taught water aerobics for 15 years! I even taught it at a college!! What a blast. Keep up the good work and get a good night of sleep. You're one of the most unselfish and charitable people I know. Pleasure to know you.
