March 7, 2018 Sunshine & A Prognosis

The Gridders' pygmy goats.



Monday 3/5. We were actually able to get on our way Down There at 7:50 this morning.  Arrived at the orthopedic center (after buying my latte) a half an hour early for JB's appointment.  I dropped him off and drove off to the three stops I needed to make.  Was back before he was done.  It seems the prognosis is: his knees are 75 years old, just like the rest of him.  And we had to pay the doctor to tell us that??

We were back home by 11:30 with no issues driving up the mountain.  It felt very good to be back home and know that nothing was torn or broken in JB's knee.  He is really getting around much better and the doctor told him to just do what he was comfortable with.  Good.  Now he can start earning his keep again. . .

More clouds than sun today, but still very nice with a high of 40.

Tuesday 3/6. It was 22 with clear skies this morning, but quickly warmed up.  With all the sun shining on the solar panels, I absolutely had to vacuum today.  Lots of other chores to do, too.  

After lunch we both went outside.  JB started all the vehicles, moving slowly but steadily.  I brought in the wood, gave the girls clean shavings in their nesting boxes, took the dogs for their afternoon walk, etc., etc.

JB cooked dinner for the first time in more than two weeks.  He makes a great meatloaf.  I was able to finish my book, Angel of Losses, by Stephanie Feldman.  Jewish mysticism at its most entertaining!

Wednesday 3/7. It is 23 and mostly clear this morning.  I just might take the day off. . .

Thought for the day: If only closed minds came with closed mouths.
