Bragging time!!!

We all share the good and the bad - right? How about the totally ridiculous? Since I've had this leg problem - my balance has been so bad that I couldn't get dressed standing up - such as putting one foot at a time into underpants or trousers. Well, this morning - (drum roll, please) I stood up and put one leg at a time into my undies! I yelled out to the other room to DH - with my accomplishment - and I really think he thinks I've lost it! Not really - he is being very helpful.

I'm all dressed - house is in order, and DD is due to arrive at Newark at 11:23 - we will be there with bells on. Then we will have lunch on the patio and just relax and enjoy. Have a wonderful day - Thanks for letting me brag on my major achievement - not quite like bringing home a tennis trophy, but it's big news for me.

Rosemary I am so proud of you, I know that you have had such a time doing daily personal things and this is a Biggie.


It is the simple things like putting your panties on standing up that make you realize when you can accomplish the small things you have the big things won. Its the small things that get you through the day.


Have a wonderful day on the patio.
