Hot muggy Sunday. the weatherman said rain but it never happened.
Heard from my son Newell down near Galveston. He stayed through hurricane Ike at work. He's working nights. Wife and kids evacuated to San Antonio a few days ago. Everybody is fine. He heard from his neighbors he lost shingles off a chunk of his roof. Not sure about water damage yet. No electricity expected for a while. He planned to get to the house today
Our favorite patient continues to work hard at her physical therapy exercises for more hours than I can imagine each day. Walks are getting longer and a bit faster. Can't remember if I'd written this before- she's dropped her crutches and moved over to using a cane. Had to saw an inch off the bottom of it per PT's instructions. It was too long. She enjoyed some nice short visits this week from a few friends including a sort of last minute evening visit with two of my sisters - Gail and Emelie. Emelie flew into Albany airport for a weekend visit with her husband and bunch of the rest of us. Its her 45th bday.
Allie has been sleeping better most nights. Still very uncomfortable.
We went out on a date Saturday night - went to the movies at the Colonie mall and saw the latest batman movies - the Dark Knight. We both live such low media stim lives these days that I'm not sure which overloaded us more the movie or a mall on Saturday night. We both needed recovery after that.
I went back to a full load of work last week - strategic plan writing, a day of coaching clients and prep for a training program this week. today did a 50 mile bike ride - fundraiser for Habitat for Humanities. Along the way stopped at sister Gail and her husband Franks house helped them move the boat. its called showing up at the right time!
