These are random musings of my life journey, the people, animals, places, and events which have woven, and continue to weave, a tapestry that is me. We all know there is no real destination, only the ongoing experiences which blend together, creating the trail. Each step gives a glimpse of what is to come, without allowing me to see the end result. It is exciting. I have a home base that is mine, that gives me a place to rest. This is it. This is where my heart is, no matter where I journey...................

I'm back and fiesty!

Thanks, everyone, for your notes, your thoughts, and your prayers. It worked!

I'm at home (YAY!), and I'm doing very well. I have less pain than I expected, and I'm able to do much more than I expected. My daughter, Terri, is as impressed with my condition as I am. Of course, I'm still on pretty heavy duty pain medication at this time, and I will continue for a couple more days, and then I will phase down and play it by ear.

I'm very thankful to have TL here with me. She is able to fill the gaps of what I can't do, and besides, why would I be anything but pleased to have my daughter all for myself for a week? Hellooooo???? ;D

I'll be back with more chatter later on, but I'm keeping it short for now. I'm still tired and not full of words as I usually am. Thanks, again, you guys! You are the best.

BTW, slip over and give Caroline a shout. She had surgery at the same time I did, and is having a little trouble getting back on her feet. a few cyber hugs or good wishes would be nice for her. Thanks.

  2. It is wonderful to hear from you girl. Take it easy now, rest as much as possible while you have a chance. Once you have your strength back, you can write, write, and write some more, lol

  5. Careful. You still have to heal. You'll probably feel that part of it more when the pain meds wear off.

  6. Hi Lyn,
    I just popped over to visit Caroline for a few words of encouragement. i am so happy that you are home AND that you have the added bonus of having your daughter with you! I only get to see my oldest daughter once a year, sometimes twice. She lives in N.C. and we live in Illinois...sigh...I miss her.
    Love Di

  10. Thank you, everyone. I am taking it very easy, and Terri reminds me often that she is here to do the most for me that she can. My conscience!

    Today is another good day so far. I rested well last night, and I'm still feeling very good, all things considered. I'll probably post later in the day.

    :)
