Saturday - December 6

I exercised and Anne, Patrick and boys stopped in - also the gutter guys were here to clean out all the gutters one more time  Mark left around 10:15  for Prompt Care - he's coughing again and has the same old cold symptoms AGAIN.    He was there over 2 hours and the diagnosis is that either he never got over his earlier sinus infection OR this is a new one!    So, he's now on 4 new, stronger meds.   
 
We made plans a few months ago with 4 other couples (all former work friends of Mark's) to have dinner tonight.    Two of them have canceled (one is hurting with knee issues and having knee replacement this week and Mark's former secretary, Helen and her husband canceled as she had surgery this week for torn meniscus and still in a lot of pain.)    The nurse practitioner said Mark was fine to go out tonight and resume any normal activity!
 
I made a pot of chili for Mark to have tomorrow as I'll be celebrating with the Sublettians.  
 
Oh....a correction from yesterday's blog (we were NOT at the clinic for 12 hours.   Got that corrected to 4 hours total which was long enough)!
 
So....2 couples (Patty and Paul and Shelly and Jim) came for drinks and so fun catching up (Shelly and Jim have a brand new granddaughter, their first) - then to Baxter's for a wonderful dinner (LOVE this place)!   Now what was so strange and unusual???......after Henry and Helen canceled cause of their knee issues, Shelly and Patty came tonight both wearing big orthopedic boots (stress fractures and broken bone) - wow!   This getting older is just the pits - no doubt about it!!!
