It was really touching, that no matter which channel you turned the television to on Wednesday, they were all showing Local Ceremonies honouring those that have served during Wars around the world. Our son Ken called, telling us that there had been a Banner in LaSalle with Kathy’s Father on it and many other Veterans from the community that had served in the Armed Forces during the Wars.

Thursday, there was no time to spend on the Computers, because I had a Physiotherapy appointment. Due to the additional exercises that are required Homework, there was noticeable improvement in my mobility. As a reward I was again given even more Homework as a way of speeding up the process.

We stopped at The Backroad Cafe for something to eat. Kathy chose to have Ruben for lunch, while I chose to have an Omelette since I could handle the fork with my left hand alone. The Waitress offered to feed me if I needed.

We drove out to LaSalle in search of the Banner we had been told about. Every year they have Banners of the different volunteers that served. With a constant drizzle, we gave up after the third drive through and headed towards home.

A Month ago we purchased a pair of Skechers Slip-On Shoes for Kathy. Since then she has continually raved that if she could find another pair like them, she would buy them, so we went to The Shoe Outlet to find them. There was nothing on the shelves but after finding the purchase in their Computer, they were able to locate the same shoes at another nearby location. As we paid for them, the price came up as 50% Off, making the smile on Kathy’s face even bigger.

We just made it inside, when the sky really opened up.

Kathy’s brother Danny was featured on the “6 o’clock Local News”, volunteering for The Goodfellows. At this time of year, they collect donations for the less fortunate for Christmas.

We both slept like a couple of rocks that night. Unfortunately, I spent the majority of it in my Recliner.

Friday morning we barely finished breakfast, when The Shoe Outlet called saying Kathy’s shoes were in. We finished our E-Reading and Coffees before heading out the door.

The first place we went to was Wendy’s for lunch. It was Cloudy and Wet, so everyone was bundled up against the cold.

Leaving there, we simply drove across the street to the Tecumseh Mall. As soon as they brought the Shoes out, they recommended that Kathy try them on, before leaving the store. They were a perfect fit.

Back at the Apartment, I barely had a chance to change into shorts when Kelly from Sole Sisters Mobile Foot Care showed up. I have mentioned about taking care of Kathy’s feet until this last Surgery, but Kathy has not been able to return the favour. By the time Kelly left, my feet felt better than when I just soaked them in the Epson Salts Footbath.

Last night we both slept soundly, this time I spent hardly any time in my Recliner. Kathy always sleeps better when I am laying next to her.

Getting up at 8:00 this morning, I first busied myself by following Doctor’s Orders. I removed the Cushion attached to my Sling. It had been used to hold my Arm slightly away from my body for the last Five Weeks. Now, this will reposition my Arm slightly and it feels wonderful.

After breakfast and E-Reading, we headed out to run some errands. Unfortunately, my Hoodie was not enough to block the cold breeze but nothing else fits over the Sling. The solution was to have Kathy walk in front of me, blocking some of the wind.

We stopped at Popeye’s to change things up. Their Sliders are satisfying without overfilling us.

We then went to Guardian Storage to collect our Mail.

Though we did not stop, we noticed quite a drop in fuel prices, even since we filled up last week.

Our last stop was Walmart where after struggling to find parking, we managed to find some groceries to bring home.

Our daughter Karen called to see how we were doing. We’ll be going for a visit tomorrow.
