Rain and Cold

Glen Rose, Texas

Weather: low 32 degrees, high 36 degrees, rain and drizzle

We woke this morning to a cold rain with temperatures that hovered bear the freezing point most of the day. Carolyn had an appointment at 0700 hours with the physical therapist that is going to assist her with the therapy for the vertigo. The first treatment was given today, and she was also given exercises to perform at home over the weekend. Carolyn is upbeat about the direction her treatment is going, and we are hopeful that it will be successful.

While I was waiting for Carolyn, an older gentleman came in to perform therapy for knee replacement surgery he had several months ago. He told me how the surgery went, and the fact that his doctor wanted him to have the other knee replaced in the near future. He said he told the doctor that he better have a fast horse and a long rope if the doctor though he was going to operate on one of his knees again. I thought that was a funny expression I have never heard before.

Since it was such a messy and cold day, we stayed inside most of the day. Late in the afternoon, it looked as though the rain might be over, so I tried to take a walk. About 20 minutes after I began walking, it started raining again. So much for a walk. The balance of the day was spent reading, watching TV, surfing the net,,,,,,,,,,.

Carolyn prepared quesadillas for dinner. Very good, but then there's not much that I don't like.

Be safe.
