As some of you know, I’ve had a couple of knee replacements. It appears we are not done yet with all that. One of my knees has an infection in it. Tomorrow they will take out that knee joint, pack it with antibiotics, and then wait three months from then for a new knee.

I love learning experiences, in the main. I suffer from the elephant’s child’s ailment of insatiable curiosity. So I’m constantly curious about different bugs, archeology, dog training, new recipes, different stabilizers. the list goes on.

Medical experiences, not so much. I’ve found all major medical comes with an exam. And a learning experience. I suppose my hardest life lessons have been from the limits of my body, which at best, I find tiresome.

Unfortunately, it’s mine. Like an unruly child, I can’t leave it at the grocery store like “I forgot”. I need to let it take me where it will, and learn from it.

I promise to try not to whine. I promise no pictures of wounds or scars. I promise not to give daily depressive and boring reports. You can imagine for yourself if you need to.

I will be off my blog a bit as I pull myself together. I hope you’ve enjoyed my effort to share what I know, what I feel, what I’ve learned with you in the hopes that it will carry you further on your journey, our journey of art, expression and joy. I’ll be back as soon as I can.

If you’re a praying person, please pray for me. If not, spare a good thought for me . I may be investigating my bedroom ceiling for a while. Thanks!
