Just some stuff

Boring, boring. That's me right now......nothing much
going on, still trying to lose more weight (that would
be a LOT easier without 3-day holidays) - gotta get
back on the stick now and really slam some pounds off
in September. I "only" lost 5 pounds in August, but
the good thing is that I could tell I'd lost inches by
the "new" clothes I could wear so that didn't feel so
bad.....but now there's NO sitting on my laurels -
I've got to keep it up, go, go go, maybe add some mild
exercise in the mix (my knees are still so
unpredictable - I can be totally pain-free one minute,
then just step down and be in pain with the next step
- grrr, it's frustrating).

Besides that, everything's the same. Mom's still in
the health center waiting for her broken ankle to heal
- she's been in 3 weeks so far with at least one to
go, she still isn't allowed to put any weight on her
leg so she basically just lays there on the bed. They
come in and do "restorative therapy" every day or so
with her sitting on the side of the bed, and she says
she sits in the wheelchair for an hour or so most
days. But after all this time of JUST DOING NOTHING I'm
afraid she won't be able to walk when she finally gets
a walking cast (or I should say "if") - I just don't
know what will happen then.....
