Well, so far so good with the foot surgery. I was pretty uncomfortable over the weekend, but the pain pills made me so sleepy that it is all a blur. I actually didn’t find it all that hard to sit still.
Today I awoke and had no pain, yay! I am able to move around a bit more, so I am feeling less antsy. I am in the throes of my Harvard project, so my mind is being occupied.
Notice the hot pink tape around my foot; my doctor has a sense of humor.
Will write more deep thoughts next week, this week has been a blur.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone for their good wishes!

Hey Bea,
I agree. I went back to the doctor today and the new wrap is now a very bright blue. π

Dear friend Ralph,
I was in the pink and now I’m in the bright blue. I went to the doctor today and he re-wrapped my foot in a bright blue bandage. π

Dear friend Ralph,
Yes, I am. I have another doctor appointment on Wednesday and I wonder what color wrap the doctor will use then. I’m thinking purple would be a good addition to the color palette. π

So sorry to hear of your forced R&R. I can imagine it is very difficult for someone as active as you. Glad it was no worse and happy to hear you are on the mend. TV and books are my pals. If you haven’t seen the recent Masterpiece shows of Poldark and Indian summers they were great. Both just had 2nd seasons so first should be available. I just love about anything done by BBC. Listen to your doc and you should be ready for hiking and putting your paddle in the water when your New England snow melts!

Hi there,
Thank you for your kind words. I view this downtime as a gift; I am using it to spend more time reading and reflecting on the Bible, as well as doing some prayer retreats.
