Hello everybody, this is just a short update to let you know that my knee surgery went well and I'm back home recovering. The first couple days were very painful and I was thankful that my doctor had prescribed "happy pills", but by now I need them much less and hope to discontinue them soon. I am able to hobble around and can even get up and down the stairs (it takes a while, though). My neighbor - the owner of the cat who has taken up residence in my garden - gave me her cadillac of a walker and that was a big help during the first two days. But now I can hobble without help, albeit rather clumsily. It will get better eventually. The hospital staff before and after surgery were wonderful, nice and kind, and I felt very well taken care of. Now my husband is taking care of me and he is simply wonderful - a true keeper!
My sweet daughter sent me the card at the top, it says "Get well" ("Gute Besserung") and I was supposed to find all the items along the edges of the card in the picture. As you can see, a teacup is included and that is my ticket to Bleubeard and Elizabeth's T Tuesday. Happy T day to all of you!
