Monday's Musings #7 (late) - Take Nothing for Granted

 Well, here it is Tuesday and I completely missed Monday’s musings. So I’ll call this one Mondays musings late.

I had surgery on my wrist last week and I’m running just a tad behind on just about everything. It’s amazing how we take for granted what we have, especially our body parts. You never realize how much you need two hands for until you only have one to use. I am extremely grateful that my second one will be healing and I’ll have access to it again soon.

 I find myself thinking about the people who have lost a limb permanently, how they must struggle to adjust. There’s many creative ways to do what you need to do, but there are also many ways to get terribly terribly frustrated.

Monday's Musings #6 - Count Your Blessings

 As I sit here on my couch on this chilly Monday morning, I contemplate spending the last week and a half with only one hand and anticipating another six weeks of it after tomorrow's surgery. You have no idea what you need to hands for until suddenly you don’t have them. Chopping a  tomato, pulling up your pants, sweeping the floor, or folding a blanket.

Is it October 1 already? 

First let me apologize for being late with the party again. Last Saturday I tripped in a driveway crack and broke my wrist. It’s been an adventure trying to do things with one hand. One of the things that are most difficult is typing. I’m using my phone and dictating and then sending myself an email and trying to edit it on the post. It’s slow going at best. But that’s not the end of it. On Tuesday I’ll be having surgery. YEP. I did it really well. It’ll be a 6 to 8 week recovery so things around here are going to be a little slow for a while. Please be patient and don’t go away. I will be back. Thanks for all the support.

So welcome to our party - share any family friendly post! You can share up to five - and tell your friends!! The more the merrier! And remember - Be sure to visit at least two other posts!

Monday's Musings #5 - Two Hands

Happy Monday. 

You know the old saying, it’s always something. My back is finally getting better. I’ve been looking forward to getting out and working in my yard again. But it isn’t in the cards.

 Here we are - Summer vacation is over - fall is right around the corner. The lazy days are dwindling and the days of rushing about nearly here.

While the days are still a little laid back, take a little time to sit - sip on some fresh squeezed lemonade - and visit a few of your fellow bloggers. Even better - drop them a comment! I bet you'd really like for someone to do that for your blog too. It's a win win!!
