My doctor told me yesterday that it may be a full year before my left ankle is fully healed. Arrgggh!! But it doesn't hurt much now and I can do most of what I could before. I am just so grateful that I can stand and walk on it now. I was about to say that I'd like to be twenty again, but no. Thirty, yes, but not twenty.

Ankles take a long time to heal. I'm glad you are doing much better. I had a badly sprained one that never really healed until I tripped on a poorly marked curb & got a hair-line fracture in it. The doctor put me in a soft boot that I could adjust with velcrove straps. Once the fracture healed I still wore the boot, on and off, around the house for years.

Quiet day. I can complain and give us a post. I picked up too many apples & my lower back & hip has been hurting all day. I can't sit long or I get too stiff.

Jane · « **Reply #93 on:** September 14, 2013, 04:59:13 PM »

I'm still all alone

I'm going to go use the heating pad & see if that helps.

I just took the garbage to the basement, picked up my mail, and found a lovely card in my email. I do not understand why my left foot is not throbbing all day. No, the damned thing waits until I lie down and inhibits my sleep. Well, the progress between this Saturday and last is huge, but sadly not huge enough.

I also got a lovely call from one of the DRs asking about my health. I wasn't at my best. I have a hard time with phone calls at the moment: it's painful and slow getting from the bed to the phone, and standing to talk is even worse.

DR Elmore, glad your foot is throbbing day and night.....VIBES it doesn't throb tonight

MEGA VIBES EVERYONE.

HAPPY WEEKEND EVERYONE

Today I looked at one of my apple trees and it was bent over from the weight of the apples. I don't know that they are really ripe, some are but I had to pick a bunch of them. My little tree was just bending down too far.

I am back home, and very soon off to bed!

singdaw · « **Reply #107 on:** September 14, 2013, 06:29:43 PM »

But first - thank you to every DR for all the wonderful birthday wishes here today!

singdaw · « **Reply #108 on:** September 14, 2013, 06:30:42 PM »

Turning 50 doesn't bother me at all, but my mother says she is not old enough to have a son that is 50.

When people ask her how old her children are, she says: Old enough to be out on their own.

singdaw · « **Reply #109 on:** September 14, 2013, 06:31:39 PM »

DR TCB - very honored to share a date with your special birthday/anniversary. That is such an accomplishment. Way to go!

DR Jeanne - a year is a long time. ~ ~ ~ VIBES OF PATIENCE ~ ~ ~ to you!

singdaw · « **Reply #111 on:** September 14, 2013, 06:37:46 PM »

OK - I am really tired. Making mistakes and having to go back and edit almost every post.

That is a sign that it is time for this old boy to head to bed.

Again, many thanks to all!

Oh- and welcome home, DR ChasSmith!

A suitable birthday sentiment, purportedly from Woody Allen:

“In my next life I want to live my life backwards. You start out dead and get that out of the way. Then you wake up in an old people's home feeling better every day. You get kicked out for being too healthy, go collect your pension, and then when you start work, you get a gold watch and a party on your first day. You work for 40 years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement. You party, drink alcohol, and are generally promiscuous, then you are ready for high school. You then go to primary school, you become a kid, you play. You have no responsibilities, you become a baby until you are born. And then you spend your last 9 months floating in luxurious spa-like conditions with central heating and room service on tap, larger quarters every day and then Voila! You finish off as an orgasm!”

In the lobby of the synagogue today, they were registering folks for the national bone marrow donor database. I got swabbed!
