MADE IT THROUGH THE FIRST SERIOUS PT

 My knee it all it's beauty...I will spare you the stapples.
Today it was a blood draw and PT, which went very well.  6 new exercises to add to the mix.
Watched a movie, had many visitors.  Fresh eggs from Janice's chickens and a casserole from Louise.
 Madonna brought up a hanging planter that her grandson made and a
gourmet dinner!
 My pals really know about cooking good food.
 Gary did chores, then Jen came up later to do Abbe's leg.













 They had picture taking duty....our wild roses are starting to bloom.
 Lily was in and out today.
I forgot to tell you that I got a call from Paris yesterday!  That has never happened before!
My friend Judy and her husband were over there for business and are now going on a vacation.  Sure was surprised to be checked on from there.  Some amazing friends....
Thanks everybody!

    That's a very impressive dinner you had there! Your friends are really spoiling you -- which is as it should be. Glad the PT is going well.

    I'm happy your knee goes better. Keep on recovering.
    Your friends are unlucky. It's been raining for several days in Paris. Hope it will stop soon.
    See you soon

    Great!! You're finally on your way to recovery- having the surgery over!
    Did you get one of those fantastic Ice machines that not only keep the effected area cool but palpate it too? It can used on horses as well.

    I adore your family and friends Lori. You've got goodies!
    Good for you doing your PT..it's the key to recovery!Hang in and don't over do it...my sissy tried to many a time.

    Glad your PT went well. It will get easier every time. When those staples come out your knee will feel better too. Great friends and great food will surely make you feel better.
