Backing Up

Fell March 1 and then ended up in the hospital on the 4th, nothing broken they said it was deep tissue bruising. But for just over a week I couldn't even swing my feet up into the hosp. bed, then when things were sorta looking up diagnosed with a pretty nasty stain of the flu, so much so they moved me in a private room with isolation in place. Came home on the 17th, making room for Covid19 patients, none yet that I know of. Was pretty weak when first home, gaining strength every day. And finally picked up my knitting. Planned on finished everything on my needles, first was the sock for the crayon challenge, even tho Desert Mesa was cancelled I had to finish the sock.

Then the blue Monsters for a friend in So Calif. Same colours just in different places will get them mailed staying home restrictions are lifted.
Last pair are for M (8 years old) in Pritchard, they have been on the needles since early January, wild and crazies.
All things considered I am doing OK here in my home, my meals aren't the greatest but by far better than hospital food, most mornings for breakfast got limp mushy toast, porridge with no sugar or milk, even had a friend bring me some scrambled eggs, she wrapped in the a towel to keep them hot, nothing tasted better.

About 90% of my yard is snow free, and even my driveway looks to be drying up. Glad to be home to see the trumpeter swans flying.

  3. Oh sorry you had a nasty fall and flu. Glad you are home now and recovering. The socks look great. I bet those eggs tasted wonderful. Food always tastes good when made by others with love. Keep safe.

  4. Glad to hear you're well again & safe at home & away from the Covid mania. Home is the best place to recover anyway, with your own bed, chair & no one else's germs . . . Just stay vertical.
