An uneventful week

No medical issues this week.  David and I are walking together these days and do it pretty early in the morning to avoid heat and ozone.  We don't walk fast, stop when he needs to and barely break a sweat.    Nonetheless, we are slowly going more steps.  We drive to Lee Drive, part of a small national park five minutes away, and then walk along the road.  There is a slight hill on the way out which means that the way back is downhill.  I saw some interesting mushrooms along the way after the big rain on Tuesday.  David is doing his exercises and trying to get better with balance.  I sometimes have to nag him about it.  They are boring.  He does love to walk so that is never an issue. Adam, Anne and Phoenix are coming to visit in a couple of weeks and we are starting to get ready for that, planning things to do, meals and such.  So all in all it's been a good week here at Hill House.  We got some Cold Stone cupcakes for the kids who helped us last week and gave the trash collection guy a thank you card with some cash.  Much less expensive than another trip to Mary Washington hospital when you consider personal wear and tear not money.  I thank everyone for your prayers and hope that it is now appropriate to direct them to others in need.
