Monday morning, we walked with our friends, human and canine. It was bright, sunny and fresh, and Stacy walked with us. I, however, lag behind, limping along due to the lump on my heel.
We came home and I napped before lunch all ‘round, then I got to watering all the backyard beds. It takes an hour and twenty minutes. Then Her Highness and I walked the Elder Cedar trail, and I came home to do the front bed, the trees and the edible garden.
The days fly by. I don’t hate watering, and that is a miracle. I could do this forever, but the cool down is coming. It scares me, thinking about it now, because I am so active. The thought of being inside all the time seems abhorrent.
I really love my solitary life. Yes, I love people, but it’s like playing with dynamite when I socialize. And I love this home and its garden. And this year the garden has produced a high yield of berries. It’s been an exciting year because other things thrilled me as well: the Camilia and light purple hydrangea blossoming for the first time, having 12 apples growing, and the explosive growth of many plants.
I’m still enjoying the beneficial effects of the prednisone. I remain feeling as good as when I first took the drug, and that’s much, much better than I was prior to starting treatment. Being on Tezspire should keep me from needing prednisone again, and I’m now adapted to living with more severe asthma.
Today is cloudy but it will likely clear up later in the day as happens often of late. I have a Zoom session with Dr. Shoja this morning and depending on how the weather goes, I’ll water a lot, a little or not at all, for tomorrow it rains (I hope).
I still cannot upload photos to this blog. If' Googled what to do but I'v been unable to solve the problem. I'll keep trying.
