Sweet Home
Today we motored to the Mankato hospital for Dr. Madson to check on the wound on Dennis’ foot. The incision is healed where the big toe was removed. This wound is the rubbed spot next to the little toe. Man oh man this has been a long time healing. Now that Dennis has good blood flow to the foot, it looks better to me each time I dress it, and Dr. Madson agreed. We will still need to be a Lewis Drug annex for a time.
We are home in the mid afternoon and it feels oh so sweet. We picked up some groceries at Hy-Vee and they are put away. We do take advantage of our trips to put groceries in the cupboard. I realize our small town grocer can’t buy the volume as Mankato can, but I don’t need to pay the higher price that is asked as long as I am in Mankato.
Tomorrow is my yearly eye exam here in town. I wouldn’t think of putting that off. I do often think of my friend Judy that is blind. Every moment of every day is the same for her . . . black.
Our goal is to keep the calendar as free of appointments as possible. For the remainder of the month, Dennis has only one additional appointment during the last week of this August. Thanks be to God.
I am thinking of what may be going on at Megan’s home this week. Megan and her family had planned on being in Lynchburg Virginia on the 14th to settle Megan into her college dorm room. Hmm. My heart strings are feeling a tug.
