Heart Update on Tamiloo...

Just thought I needed to let you know how I'm doing. Well, pain still there...always will be, just not as bad. I have had some really bad days this winter.

Now how do I catch up on the housework? I guess I wash the cloths first because we have to wear them. Dishes...yuck...need to wash because they just keep growing and need to eat off them. My honey is the best...he just wants me to take it easy.

Yesterday we went for a nice lunch and a matinee to avoid the crowds. It was a good day.

Tomorrow evening our church is putting on a very formal evening of dining and dancing...should be good. I told Olhipie that his dance card is full.

Last year this older guy that likes to dance but his wife does not was dancing with all the women that had husbands that didn't like to dance...hope you all speak blonde...only way you will understand that one.

Well, this guy asked me to dance; I did but felt really weird. I told my honey that he will probably ask again this year and I'm going to tell him...can't ya see we are dancing...and sorry but my dance card is full. Besides, it hurts to stand so dancing is not in the picture for me.

When we dance it is more of a snuggle sitting down so that is what we will be doing.

Hey, I do appreciate all the hugs and caring I got from you guys...you’re the best!!!

Enjoy the dance you are going to. The housework is not going anywhere -- too bad -- so do as little bit at a time when you can.

blankets on, tuck.

rest - with snack.

refill water bottle.

rest some more, addressing postcards.

put away two piles of clothes.

rest in hammock with Anne Rice novel.

refill chip bucket for composting toilet.

NAP TIME !! on newly-made bed... ahhhhhhh!!!

and so it goes.
