A wee bit of complaining, which you can choose not to read
The reality of 7 more weeks in a bed/wheelchair/on crutches is starting to kick in. It's been hot here...almost 100F, and I just want to not be in bed. Just for a day. To go take a walk, pick flowers, explore the property, fix a place for Gwen to play, fish in the pond, collect the eggs, unpack boxes, clean rooms other than the kitchen, kill a few dozen moths that have seemed to have taken up residence in the many bouquets of dead flowers still inhabiting the house.
None of this is happening, and it's really discouraging. Our dining room is boxes stacked up to the ceiling. There's a path to the bathroom, the living room, and Gwen's temporary bedroom just wide enough to get my wheelchair through.
Update: A little bit of a bright spot. Doug put in the window air conditioners. It's cool in here! I can breathe and sleep again!
Anyway, I'm just discouraged. I would never ever again have moving coincide with breaking a leg. I would choose to stay in a hotel for weeks on end instead of going through this again!

Mary is a foxy mama.
This is a test comment. :)
*I* think Mary is just hoping for loads and loads of comments, so she's faking the comment-malfunction. :)
Erm, that was me, Dana up there..
No kidding Mary's a hot mama - 100 degrees.
Meh
Hardy har har. You all think you're so funny. But this is still odd to me. I just had someone else say they couldn't post a comment. I wonder if it has to do with posting anonymously.
Never mind....because Dana just did it. Argh
I don't blame you for the frustration mama - spring is here and you have a new farm to explore! Glad you have the ac on now though.
Hey Mary - re: the game, it's called Settlers of Cataan and we love it :) I guess it's a strategy/board game, for lack of a better word. A good game shop should have it. You can play with two people, but the orginal set allows up to four, and if you can get more into the game, it makes it more exciting :)
I am sorry for the current trial - praying for relief, peace and joy in the midst. I am glad you are cooler now! The boxes aren't going anywhere - just get well, soon and then you can get busy. Love visiting you even if you "complain a wee bit" from time to time. You are just human like the rest of us ;-). Blessings!
