Well Thursday started out over cast and quite chilly with very little sunshine at all during the day. I think it even rained again over night which is a blessing since we've been so short on rainfall this year. I started the day with a sleep in until 7'ish as I'm off the court for at least until next Tuesday or longer. That's depending on how my 12 stitches are healing the wound on the top of my shoulder. So far no real pain except some itching which means the healing is happening. I'm able to shower and then replace the bandage nightly with Nancy's help. So far so good and the dermatologist called yesterday and said the borders of the sample of skin showed no cells that were of any concern, Praise the Lord.
After my morning routines that start with some quiet time to honor my LORD, give thanks for another day and to lift up several for comfort and healing I stayed on the laptop doing some business and catching up on the social medias. All seem as well as can be expected with those I lift up daily and now Ava heads to Tampa this morning to see the doctor who did her eye and nose. Hopefully she is well enough to shower and get back to school next week as she had been laid up since Monday with lots of swellings and pain from the procedure. Nancy stopped yesterday as she was visiting Sheri a couple doors down and she said looked much better except for the bruising around her eye.
Well Steve came by around 11 on his electric bike as Sheri was having several lady friends over for lunch one of which was Nancy. We had planned to ride the trail but it was just too cold and overcast and I'm still coughing at times with some ear clogging which makes me think I'm having some sinus issues. I took another Benadryl and that seems to help with the ear popping, but I don't feel bad or sick. The coughing has just about ceased except for early in the morning after awakening for a spell but eventually that ceases as well. It's tough getting older and having any health issues.
Steve and I had a delicious chicken salad on a bed of leafy greens from the garden which Nancy had made for us before she took off to Sheri's. After eating we played Kings on the Corner until it was time for him to head home. Nancy was at Amy's visiting Ava when he went by. She got home some time later. I had done several honey do's before she let at 11 so I had the rest of the day to watch videos on the war in Israel and read. We had the leftover beef barley soup for supper with crackers and there is still enough today for lunch which is perfect for these cool days.
After the cleanup I settled into reading until 8 then hit the shower and Nancy changed out the bandage on my shoulder before I settled into ALONE on the bedroom TV until 10, Later
