Sunset in Michigan on Wednesday evening.....

It has been quite some time since I have written here...the trip to Fenton just about wiped me out for a few days but now I am up and keeping up with everything that needs to be done (most everything)..yesterday I had to go talk with Dr. Nelson and it went very well and he decided that he didn't need to see me but in about six weeks to make sure that I didn't have any setbacks which of course could happen but I am hoping will not happen...I had an outside lady clean my apartment and she did a good job but I could only get her until November as she is a snowbird and flies away to Florida during the winter months...I cancel and signed up with the Village housekeeper...we will have to make adjustments for her since she is not a Liz (our former housekeeper who quit several months ago) but we are having more and more people move into the village and I wanted to land a morning cleaning so I signed up...some of the ladies are complaining because she will only give us 45 minutes for cleaning and I may have to go outside to get some cleaning done that I will need done..oh well, I will try and see...
Dr. Davis said that I could go back in the pool so I am going to try going down on the bus and have Steve pick me up and bring me home...the trip down is about 25 to 30 minutes but over an hour to come back...also, we have our Care and Share group in the morning which I will attend...dress and get a bus a little after 10 a.m....got a belated Birthday greetings to Cynthia...and extra $5.00 which the cleaning charged...Steve is planning on taking me on the 17th to my friend Edna's 90th birthday buffet in Fenton...that is, if Ella comes I will have to work something out but her daugther, Sue, told me that I could bring her with me..I so want to visit with my sister and also be at Edna's party...oh well, I just have to wait and see how it works out..I am on my second book on tape..it is not quite as long as the other one (9 discs) as it has 3...this has been another looooooooog day so I'll just stop here and wish all of you and good night and pleasant dream....Love and Prayers, Mary,
Mom, Grandma, Aunt, Friend

P.S. I forget to tell you that Paul took a fall while we were at our house in Fenton...he and the boys spent from 2:00 p.m. arriving at Mark's house around 10 P.M...the took him to a clinic and they said because of his age they would not touch him and sent him to E.R...he did, however, have a concussion...he was trying to be helpful and when Eileen saw him, he was coming out the backdoor (steps) with both hands full and down he went flat on his face...he was quite skinned up and we had to watch him for several days but fortunately he got thru it and has healed quite nicely..
