I had kind of a scary but fun time this morning. We have some pine trees in back of our screened in pool area and they drop needles into our gutters which of course then get plugged. I have not dealt with the issue as my leg said NO. Well I think I am well enough now to take care of it. HOW? Well it involves getting out the 10 foot ladder and setting it up by the screen. Then it is climb up and get onto the roof. From there it is CAREFULLY crawling around to get the bunches of needles and then getting down before I stretch over with a 12 foot pole to get all the needles and throw them down on the ground. MAYBE I should not be on the roof at my age or at this time BUT the experience of getting the work done and then sweating to no end was kind of fun! Next year may be another story, we will see. I find it difficult to give up the fun things in life but I also realize there is a time to say that is enough. A neighbor down the street says he has been abiding by his 50/50 rule for some time now. He explained it as when I turned 50 I will pay $50 to get some things done!!!
Anyway it is one thing crossed off my list of things to do before we head north in about 3 weeks. My list is long so I have a ways to go.
I did not have PT yesterday. The clinic cancelled it so the next time is Monday. My leg still is telling me that there is a ways to go before all is well.
Enough for now. FP was great this morning. I am thinking that little Agatha is having a fun birthday.
