A new day is upon us

 You are just going to have to imagine the picture that I have spent most of the day trying to get from my iPhone to my laptop, since they are not just cooperating. But here's the story: today SG took the Paratransit bus (a mini sort of bus, part of the WTA transit system) to his doctor's appointment to decide what they would be doing with his broken elbow. It turned out extremely well: once he got there, via the bus, he saw the orthopedic surgeon, thinking he would be having to endure an operation. But the doctor said he can resume baby pushups like he did before the accident in just a few more weeks. So, that was wonderful news. And he can use the system for trips to and from doctor's appointments for the next three years, no charge! That is, other than the $60 annual fee to belong to the Senior Center.

So, as you can imagine, we are thrilled that we are coming along with our various and sundry problems, hoping for a happier time in our immediate future. Sorry this post is so short, but I am wanting to climb into bed and start a new, better day tomorrow.

I might try just a little longer to get a picture for you. But if I don't succeed, you can use your imagination until sometime later.

  7. Good News about an injury is always welcome. I also Hate it when the Interweb won't behave or enhances things to where now I have to learn something new. *Le Sigh* I am spending more time on my Blog since I've tried to avoid the TV, too much to unpack that is an atrocity unfolding in America and right now the exposure to all of that is so toxic it's not helpful or healthy. I'm glad to be Old but fear for our Younger Generations inheriting what they will surely have Generations to run damage control behind. Memories of Watergate seem rather Quaint by comparison to me now.

I really appreciate your comments! If you see a word verification box here, just ignore it. I don't use the darn thing and Blogger is trying to get us to use it, I guess. Ignore it and your comment will still appear.
