It is hard to believe we have been home from our mission for three months.
We are appreciating our home and it's conveniences. My recovery from
rotator cuff surgery is going slow but as expected. In 2 1/2 weeks I
can start using my right arm. I certainly was not born to be a lefty!!
I have physical therapy twice a week...then another month of retrenched
upper arm. The one upside to this is that I have watched a lot of HGTV
and I am making lots of plans for much needed updating on the old
homestead starting with the kitchen. We had three trees taken down in
our oak grove. They were the smaller ones and having them gone has
opened things up in the backyard quite a bit but without sacrificing
shade where it is wanted. In the spring we will make more improvements.
Keith's balance problems seem to be improving with the physical therapy
he had and exercised he is doing. For those who may be in the neighborhood
at Christmas, the local family will be sharing Christmas dinner with us
and you are invited to join us if it is convenient. If you need your gift
exchange list, let me know. Start thinking now about that. Let your
family know when to expect those gifts. Let them know if finances could
be a problem. Home made is great. We love you all so much. Please take
care of yourselves. Love Mom and Dad Walburger
