A Thanksgiving Catch-Up

 


I hope everyone who celebrates is having just the kind of Thanksgiving they hoped they'd have. And even if you don't celebrate Thanksgiving, I want you to know that I am thankful for you all being a part of my life. You do make a difference.

I want to thank everyone for the emails and cards they've sent. I did have the venous ablation on my leg last week, and the follow-up ultrasound showed that the procedure is doing what it's supposed to. The leg is slowly healing (finally-- after more than a year!), and the pain has lessened quite a bit. All good signs that I hope continue.

Denis and I have been taking it easy in between medical appointments, and I've continued to keep my leg up and my nose stuck in a book. In fact, it's a good thing that I've been stretching out on the bed to read (in a patch of sunshine no less) because when I started reading a book a couple of days ago, I saw that it was dedicated to me. Wow! What an unexpected gift!

You'll be seeing more of me next week because I'll be posting reviews of some new releases. I'm not ready to go back to my old blogging schedule, but I do think I see a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel.

Virtual hugs to you all!

  3. Yippee! Congratulations on having the procedure and that it's a success. Hope your leg heals quickly. And so glad that you are reading and eventually there will be review. But take your time and relax and rest -- and not too much news or you'll be throwing books at the TV or computer. Your loyal blog followers will patiently wait for your reviews while we cheer on your recovery. And if you find more shows, let us know. I love High Pontential and am waiting for January for the next episodes. Have a healthier December with good books, movies and food and regards to Denis.
