Relative Something

Enough about me. Oh, …just one minute, while I get Cyndie a mirror. …Okay, I guess it is about me. I have never been this active in my life. Up and down and up again. I am the kind of person that likes to settle into a spot and remain there. But, it is a labor of love to serve my lovely wife. In fact, this post really is about Cyndie, after all. She is facing the situation of the broken bones in her knee with wonderful grace. As each day passes, she seems to gain confidence using her crutches to navigate additional tasks. She has successfully driven herself in Julian’s Jeep. Yesterday morning she sat on a stool at the stove and cooked me breakfast. I had almost forgotten what that is like. She is getting out in the sun, using the new “tractor seat” on wheels that I bought her for playing in the yard. Meanwhile, we have noticed that the thick skin on the sole of the foot of her injured leg is beginning to slough off as a result of not being used.

There is progress in directions favored, and not so favored.
