Oh my here we go!!!

TERRY

Yesterday I visited Terry for the last time in rehab.  No visitors on Saturday and tomorrow I will pick her up at 6:15.  She seemed ready to take the next step in her recovery.  When I left I took the route to the airport to see how much time we need.  It took me 22 minutes with moderate traffic so we should be good to go tomorrow morning early.  

For the most part I am packed.  Much of one suitcase is medical things, mostly for her feeding tube.  I did a U tube yesterday on the Joey machine that feeds her at night.  I had gone over it with a gal at rehab but wanted to see it again.  It is pretty straight forward but there may be a learning curve too!  I do need to backtrack a bit on the home care.  I have it set up for Monday at 8:00 AM but I have decided that is NOT a good idea.  We need to just settle in at home for a bit and then Daughter Kim is coming on Tuesday so I have decided that we need to start the home care a week from Monday.  I know Terry will be happy with that.  I will keep the OT and PT treatments next week as I do not want Terry to backslide in her physical improvement.  

I was putting away some things in a drawer yesterday and there were about $6 worth of quarters in the back of the drawer!  When I finish a wood project I insert a quarter with the date on it AND of course it brought to mind my woodworking of the past that is now put aside for a time.  I went into the wood shop this morning to get something and it looked kind of lonesome!

All the batteries are now in the basement as they should not be in the cold.  The rest of the shop is pretty much cleared of junk and looks pretty nice but kind of lonesome!

After I watered the garden this morning I had a closer look at things and there, hidden from my view was my very first tomatoes.  The back one looks like it will be OK to eat today.  Was kind of like the Lord was saying, "A special taste for you before you leave tomorrow."  Of course pretty much all of the tomatoes are very green yet so I was surprised to see these hidden gems.

I do not have much to do today.  I need to get the car into the garage and then walk through the house several times to make sure I have what I need to bring tomorrow.  I think the suitcases are almost overflowing so I had better not find any more things to bring!

I will not blog tomorrow with our early departure so I may not be on the computer until Monday or later.  I infused my FP this morning to give me some get up and go but then I thought even if I get up where will I go???
