Day Seven
Frozen temps outside with plans today to take it slow since my right foot is sore. TOES got smacked by a step stool that stood her ground not moving when I walked into it. Imagine that not moving. hum. Four toes took the hit and they are really very sore. Four toes. Makes my stomach hurt. Making progress walking. Foot is swollen with toes sore, but think I'm on the mend.
So I'll putz.
So I'll putz about the house doing what all good old women should do getting their place in order. Slowly it's happening. Slow but steady. I'll stay indoors today even though breathing crisp air makes me feel youthful when a barrage of memories come to mind. I remember playing in the snow making snow angels. YOUTH. I could do this again and will not mind how I look to others. I might have issues getting back upright, but hey it's worth a try.
Oh my.....something just happened to sentimental me...I actually got homesick for my youth. Made me a tad bit weepy. I suppose this can happen from time to time. My childhood memories are being worn on my sleeve. Raw emotions are sometimes the hardest thing to wear. Keeping things in check. Who wants to see an old Lady weep? Not a pretty sight. Should it comfort us to know that JESUS wept?
JOHN 11:35
Jesus wept.
God has made us emotional beings. Not all bad to weep from time to time. The first time I heard that GOD collects all our tears in a bottle surprised me.
Psalm 56:8King James Version (KJV)
8 Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?
Dry up those tears and carry on reminding myself that I had a very sweet childhood way back when the dinosaurs roamed the earth.
Weather is suppose to warm in the next few days. I'd like the snow to stay put for awhile. The sun's shining.
Thank you for stopping by my humble abode,

Crying is good.....relieves the tension. Your right, no one else likes to see us cry...but it's our party and we can cry if we want too !
I broke two toes doing what you did....LOTS of black and blue all the way up to the top of my foot eventually....really, really hurt. I iced mine a lot and it got better soon, they don't do anything with broken toes, least they never use to anyway.
I keep dreaming ( recently ) about my childhood home, they are usually not peaceful ones tho....we had a very tension filled house growning up. Parents, Grandparents, five siblings...very little money .
Thanks for asking about how I am feeling since my hospital stay....I had a mid to mild heart attack, which ended in Afib and congestive heart failure, but they have me on about 6 different and NEW meds for my heart, on top of the 6 that I take for my FIBROMYALGIA....!
But it's not over yet....I was down at MD Anderson Cancer Center this past Thurs. with my daughter who works there...and they have determined I have breast cancer....one breast only THANK YOU LORD. But surgery is in the near future, after the determine what TYPE of cancer I have ....not panicky yet, but a bit concerned about the after pain of the operation. But God has it all in HIS HANDS and I trust HIM to not give me more than I can handle at my age of almost 79.
Hope your toes a feeling better SOON, it's hard to walk on sore, sore toes.
Love, Rose
Hi Deanna,
So very sorry to hear about your foot - can be so painful injuring your feet or toes.
Hope you are feeling better and rest up. Enjoy the weekend

It is good to feel weepy and nostalgic once in a while. It keeps things in perspective. Hope your toes are better soon. Hugs, LJ
my few decorations are still up and don't care. frozen and burst heating pipes mean my priorities lie elsewhere. sorry for your toes but keep on putzing...take breaks and take care of you.
Hello Friends.
Always so glad to hear from you.
Rose, I'm going to be praying for you.
Love you all,

Nothing wrong with being nostalgic from time to time. I often wonder dear if we crossed paths in Blue Bonnet Park or were in the little grocery store there at the same time when we were kids and we would visit my mothers parents and several aunts and uncles that lived nearby.
Don't know, but I am sure glad our paths crossed when we were in college!! :)
