That's the Sound of the Men Working on the...

Chain gang?
Hardly.
But Brian Caston came by today and blew the leaves off our driveway, out of our porch area, and I think took some out of our gutters.
For those of you who know our house, you will know that this is a major task (even worse in the rain)...
For those who don't know the house, suffice to say that it is very leafy around here...Thanks, Brian!

Today was a minor milestone - the leaking has subsided substantially and after getting out of bed this morning I have not been back there...
I have been lounging in the lounge, dining in the dining room and kitsching in the kitchen.
The lack of pain - residual, collateral - has been good today.

Graeme, Rosalie and Talia came by in the afternoon, followed closely by 2 more ex-students, Kayla and Christine.
Once again, it is fun to make links between people, or even simply to listen to their stories without making the links.
A restful day then, with more sunshine and good music and chat...

Lois has had her second (and last?) round of 3000 electric shocks, so this afternoon it was a case of the sick comforting the sick...

Love,
G.

  1. Wow - So cool to hear that you are more mobile today and not in so much pain. Keep on keeping on. The electic shocks sound interesting. YOu can both go slow today and lax out. Gafa

  2. Oh, good, Gafa - thanks for your permission! as we are in the midst of martini hour and watching House together followed by our monthly "New Month's Eve" dinner - just the 4 of us. Is good, but then, martinis make things feel that way ... :-)) Much more to come, good to switch off for a moment. L

  3. The electric shocks are certainly more than "interesting"...but Lois amazes me with her ability to bounce back. Lois perhaps you could give us a few more "juicy" details on the electric shock experience when you're ready...G.
