Some new things!

I have been missing for a while. I thought when spring got here and I could get out and work in my garden and do other things outside---everything would be better. For some reason this doesn't seem to be the case. I have had some things to hinder me. I fell as I told you earlier this year and had to go to therapy for a while. It did help me but my shoulder is still weak and I have to take care of it.

Well about a month ago another freak accident that left me in much-much pain. A can of pinto beans fell off the pantry shelf onto my big toe. I ran hopping and moaning --Instantly my toe nail was black. That night I wouldn't have been in any more pain if I had been in labor to give birth through my big toe than I was that night. I slept about 3hrs after I took pain med.--The next two days I thought I would die it hurt so. I had to sit with it on a pillow with really no relief.I had many offers to drill holes in it ---but I couldn't stand for the sheet to even touch it. I did go to the Dr on the third day and it was swollen in a strut and black and red and inflamed looking. He took an instrument with a hot wire on the end and burned three little holes in the toenail----OH-- the instant relief, did not hurt any more blood ran out and now the whole toe is pealing off. The fever and swelling caused the skin to come off and my toenail is going to come off too. I am sure you liked this play by play story of my toe experience. I just hope you never have a full can of anything to fall on your toe.

Farmer Man is still getting worse in his memory and knowing who some of us are at times. He does go to the barn with me and feed the goats now if we feels like it.
I have a new kitty out at the barn and he likes her. He has never liked cats but he likes her. She has some kittens and they are just now showing their faces. I hope they are as sweet as Pinkie their mother.
