On the mend

Both Terry and I are on the mend.  I took the last of my meds today and I should be good to go.  I would say my energy level is maybe only 90% but that will be back shortly.  Terry is close to being finished with her meds and I think she is almost good to go too.  She went on a walk yesterday for the first time in about a week so that is a good sign.
I think I am in the middle of battling a bit of old age.  I have been doing some more work on old pictures and oh my the memories, questions etc. have filled my mind.  I have never been one to "wish" for the good old days and I still do not, I am happy where I am today but it is more things like "why" or "what if".  I find myself seeing pictures of Ronald and Janet and wondering who they would be if they were still living.  I see pictures of Mom and Dad and coming up with many thoughts.  I have even gone back in my mind to HS days and wondered "what if".  Perhaps all of the "mind" stuff is normal, at least I hope it is because if it isn't I may be in trouble!!
Well regardless of the wandering mind I am happy to be me today.  However time does fly and February 1st Ruby Lee starts a new round of those grand kids getting a year older.  Henry, the oldest, turns 12 in August and begins the march towards those teenage years, wow. I say that and then realize on Terry's side the oldest will turn 21 this year!
No complaints but we are having a cool January so far.  Mostly the temps have been in the 70s and I think that is a little cool for Naples.  As for me, that weather is great but you actually see many people wearing long pants and long sleeve shirts.
I have been able to get some rewriting done on my childhood stories so that has been good. Much to go but when I am able to get a little done each day it slowly moves along.
Lastly, my FP is back to tasting good BUT it is gone.
