Liz, I am so proud of you! And your new picture is beautiful. And yes, I did have a "brain fart", but gross way to put it, you nut! Are you boxing now--has it begun?
Kimberly, hurray for Hannah! You can be very proud of her!
Aly, I know exactly what you mean about the brain needing more to do while the body just cannot handle it. Phil has placed all my books in their new home (our house, remodeled), and told me that not including the classics, there are 45 feet of my books. Reading and hooking rugs were my activities when I was unable to do more demanding things. I'm really happy for your continued persistence in getting into ship-shape.
Helen, I am very glad you weren't in the path of the tornadoes. One of my bros finished school in Springfield, and later lived fairly near, so I was trying to follow that system. So, so glad you are safe.
Hospice has figured out what to do. One woman cannot manage this shower chair (ALSA loaner) which is super deep in the seat, making for a lot of struggle holding me in the chair while getting me "slung". My fill-in aide yesterday is lovely and will join my other aide, so I get two instead of one aide for showering. (A plastic donut is in the chair behind me while showering--giving me something to lean back against.) There is no way to express my appreciation for their kindness and help.
I know I'm missing lots of folks, but know you're in my thoughts and prayers.
