This morning

I dreamt last night that I bought this mansion of a house. The rooms were all very odd and furnished in 70's classics. Most things were white or green with brass corners. It actually was almost back in style. I kept finding money around the place in draws but it was all photocopied. I kept thinking that I'd turn it into a B & B but really didn't want to deal with all the people. The pictures on the wall was old family pictures of the previous owners. It was if they had left for the weekend and I had walked into their house. I kept thinking that #1 I could not afford it and #2 How was I supposed to clear out their stuff and get mine in....#3 I didn't have enough stuff to put in there any way and #4 it was in the burbs #5 where is Mary. Last eve I went to a pumpkin carving gathering at a condo on Damen street. It was 3 bedrooms on the 3rd floor with eastern exposure all on the same level with an elevator. I kept thinking how much easier this would be than our 2/3 sets of stairs that we have to maneuver. That I worry about Mary and know that she knows how much I worry and because of this...s.he is extra careful. Any injury that she has gotten has been at the hands of someone else's lapse in judgement or carefulness. This makes me feel a little better about it. She says it is good for her to need to maneuver and that it keeps her muscles toned more. I have a busy week this week and am hoping to see my dad Thursday night. Mary is doing better overall. Her coloring is fairly good. She will meet have labs and some xrays. etc the week after this one. We go to Houston in Dec. Her back and ribs are hurting as of yesterday but I think her mobility is better. Her right leg is still very swollen but hurts less. I sat and cut apart an abdominal binder and reconstructed the thing for a leg brace. The ace bandages were not working well. I've got to work on it a little more but she says it helps stabelize her leg and make it feel better. We had a talk yesterday about eating more. One of the LG "you will try to do this"...which happens only when she has been fighting me about doing something that I think is to her detriment. She has no appetite at all. She has agreed to try and eat something every 3-4 hours to get something in her system....and to drink a protein/fruit shake each day. Her weight is stable but I would like to see her get more nutritious food into the body. This way they body could use it to heal. Well, I have to get ready and head out to appts. Have a great day...love, lg
