Almost disabled myself yesterday
I had our helper, Jim, over yesterday while I ran errands. I asked him to help me program the emergency device I had bought. I am not technically savy. Jim had most of it set up by the time I finished running - getting a prescription, returning something at post office and getting a hair cut. Where does the time go! After Jim left I was getting the mail and took a mistep coming back. I wrenched my back as I twisted and fell on the lawn. :yikes: I was in pain! I thought I was going to be disabled for several days but nursed it back to almost normal by today. I told Larry "this is another reason he needs to learn to do more". I guess the ER button will come in handy for my emergencies as well. LOL I need to get back to an exercise program or I swear I will start to fall apart.
The weather was cool over the weekend and so I talked Larry into going for a drive Sunday. We stopped at a farmer's market so I could get some tomatoes. I wanted to go out to lunch and had to do "some friendly persuasion" to get Larry to agree. We sat outside but Larry said he was cold. I was too but still enjoyed it.
Larry's big thing lately is watching baseball, or next favorite, CNN. I did think I made a breakthrough though, as I asked if I got him the latest Mary Higgins Clark book would he read it. He agreed and I have it on request from the library. I also ordered a book holder since he would not be able to hold it one handed. This is why I like the screens in the new church we joined. He can look up and follow the service himself. I use to think this was wierd in a church since we belonged to a very traditional church before.
Well, I am taking extra care when I go to get the mail.
Lots of doctor appointments coming up for both of us. The fun never ends.
