I had a really deep, long, venting, thread typed.....
and then the site said I wasn't signed in, and I lost the whole thing.
I guess it wasn't in the cards.

In a nutshell,
- In Oct I broke my metatarsal - R foot- in 'boot' for 2 weeks
- in Nov - Got really bad upper respiratory flu on top of my emphysema
- 2 weeks ago I dropped a really heavy pot on L foot and broke toes
(I'm still in another 'boot')
- 2 days later I slipped on carpeted stairs and went down last 5 steps
on my L hip and cheek
(the worst arthritis hip, obviously-bruise ranges from mid thigh to waist)
Extremely tender to touch.
No one wants to hear about it & am depressed about loss of work over last few months = loss of income.
Gonna be a thin Xmas from me, to wife and kids. Wife has taken care of grandkids presents, thank goodness.
Can't get out and around hobbling with a cane and a 'boot', so shopping's been done on-line,
but FedEx has messed up deliveries and trying to straighten that out, is a mess.
Lotsa stress and anxiety lately- not good for the PN.
I'm trying to 'tough it out', but my facade is starting to crumble.
