A First for the New Year
Today, I had a two step dance, first one of the year of 2021.
I had decided to take my time and put the five foot Santa back into his storage area. It literally was two steps at a time. I only had ten feet to do the light fantastic. Kevin had cautioned me about extra strength activity: it depended on whether I could do it 
better or whether it was about doing it quickly. I opted for the first choice. It was not so terribly heavy duty as cautiously doing it correctly. I knew what the end result would be as Santa has a special place to be placed at where he would not be in the way for the next ten months. Kevin had put him out on Thanksgiving day to be enjoyed. Last year he had the living room area. This year that spot held my Christmas tree. He was a proud addition to my sewing studio and I did enjoy having him out. He is too special to not be put out and enjoyed. Within short order the sewing studio was back in its best utility.
The Santa Two Step was the priority of the day. The rest of this day I have spent reading and working on my jigsaw puzzle. I am four days out from the last PT appointment and am doing great. I plan on continuing my low key activity for several more days, slowing working into doing some sewing studio things. After supper is my soft-chair routine with a heating pad on my back and hip. It’s a routine that is working.
Dennis has been doing some snow removal around the garages. He takes a lot of breaks and feels good about moving about. I continue looking at the snow and . . . no touching . . . for now. With the sun having it’s way, there are many bare spots showing on the concrete. Thank you Lord.
We are having French Toast and sausages for our New Year’s celebration. Dennis has been dropping hints about a trip to Mankato tomorrow. We had been well prepared prior to Christmas and out last trip out out of town was when we went to New Ulm to pick up the little red pickup out of the body shop. I think we are due to get out of Dodge to blow the stink off.
Happy New Year to all.
