These last few weeks have been so hectic with preparing for our granddaughter’s Baptism as well as the drive to babysit for Zoey. As well as 2 major stressful goings on in our lives. Both are eagerly awaited. The drive is worth it. I usually can make it with one pit stop. ( 4 hours 20 min) Getting older these legs move better with a 10-15 min walk at one of the rest stops on rte 71. I probably look goofy. Probably should borrow a dog so I look like I am on a mission. Anyway my one friend asked me if the drive is getting to me. How could it. It is like a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. Oh. I wish this thread would have summaries every week. I am so far behind. Little time to read. But with all sincerity. You are all in my prayers. And I have plenty of time to pray as I drive. Be safe. Below my pot of gold. Beautiful girls🌷💐 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is sold out and roll call is lots of kids, so should be interesting. I am 0 for 2 on staying healthy on cruises since the restart, hopefully I break that streak! 3rd time is the Charm!! Hopefully this is your cruise where you remain healthy!! 1 hour ago, SteelCityCruiser10 said: Love Bermuda too. We are going over labor day weekend/week on Liberty.

Our “free “” cruise with balcony upgrade is pretty decently priced. Free casino drinks, two specialty restaurants, wifi. To Bermuda I say Go For It and Enjoy. June is a beautiful time to visit Bermuda. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaniDanielle Posted April 24, 2023 #91632 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Seven nights. He is feeling better but still has low energy. His legs are bothering him. I don’t know, such a decision! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaniDanielle Posted April 24, 2023 #91638 Share Posted April 24, 2023 They think his diabetes is causing weakness in his legs. He gets tired quickly when walking and standing too long. Diabetic neuropathy. They want him to walk more but he is stubborn so getting him to move is difficult. He has so much going on I think he is just tired of it all. Unfortunately they won’t let him drink so I have to do it for him. I told him he needs a good stiff alcoholic beverage 🤪 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I told him he needs a good stiff alcoholic beverage 🤪 You have to understand the stubbornness of not wanting to do something that hurts. Then as you walk less it hurts more. My father reluctantly bought a rollator which has made walking easier. The seat is helpful when you need a rest. I think these lightweight ones look so trendy. I promise my kids i will use one when walking gets hard. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Lightweight-Rollator-Adjustable-Transportation-Mobility/dp/B008CFML16/ref=sr_1_15_sspa?keywords=Rollator+Walker&qid=1682323241&sr=8-15-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9tdGY&psc=1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
