Jul. 31st, 2021 10:49 pmDragging my feet here. Remembered too late yesterday that five things make a post, and there was at least one: the rabbit that lay flat in the grass with just her ears, eyes, and nose showing as I approached. Finally I got too close and she decided to flee, but it was fun watching.
This morning I had other ideas, but spent a chunk of my time on a call with an old friend now in MN who is having a plateful of calamities. Not much I can do long distance except be a listening ear, but she said she felt better. I swear--as I said to her--it sometimes seems as if our "health care" is trying to kill us. She has it much tougher than me.
We still had time to dash out for a walk. It's lovely weather. The breeze actually cools instead of feeling like stove breath. I'm enjoying the heck out of it. I learned yesterday that Mr. Science has not only exhorted me about how I should get a hip replacement forthwith, he has bent the ear of my good friend Deb about it, too, hoping she would influence me. I checked the list of qualifications again and confirmed that nope, my symptoms don't really fit the requirements. When I see my doctor in September, I will consult with her, and will definitely ask to see a PT. When walking today, I tried really hard not to limp. I did my best to continue walking as if I were going to kick someone's ass. Well, that's three things, but it's all I can muster at the moment.
