Well its already the middle of October and I'm still trying to get a bit better while making my doctor appointments, exercises, and staying positive in my attitude about this stroke of nearly 12 years.... I'm still able to drive just my walking is not that good with my quad cane.... I try very hard not to fall since there is no one to help me get back on my feet.... My wife is still working full time, grand daughter in school, and the puppies are still growing along with their mom..... So I have to be real careful how I do things while home alone... I was home alone when the stroke came calling my name before and I sure don't want to suffer another one no time soon....

It's good for me to still be able to get on the computer now and again but not as much as I once did.... Life is still good and I'm not sick or hurting very much because I make all my appointments all the time if my wife goes with me or not... I don't have as many with the VA as I once had and that was a 30 mile drive my wife always wanted to be there with me....

So, for the most part I do all my exercises I was told to do every day at home and I feel OK health wise plus I still ride my exercise bike in the dining room and I try to eat right every day.... Otherwise there isn't much going on and not a lot to write about now...

I'm watching the puppies continue to grow now at six weeks old and still nursing for another week or so then I will try them on soft puppies food if they will eat it instead of more nursing from their mom.... They have no teeth yet but are trying to walk in their play pen area we got set up.... They don't make a lot of noise unless they are hungry and when that happens the mom is right there in a flash but I think she is tired of nursing all six of them already...

I had to take mom to get a hair cut because it was all matted up but it should grow back soon and we will have to keep it combed and brushed since they crawl all over her all day long....

Well just a bit about what's happening in my world and with the pups in their world, this has been a ride for sure but I brought one of my scooters upstairs so I could care for them since I can't stoop down to pick them up in my hand.... Otherwise all is going pretty good and I'm not going to complain at all....More next time!!!!
