Welcome! It's Blue Monday! For complete instructions, please click here.Visit other Blue participants by clicking on their links and wishing them a Happy Blue Monday!
Several of you have asked if I'm doing well. Although I am improving bit by tiny bit each day, I'm still experiencing nausea, weakness, dizziness, and fatigue. I've been told that it's all part of my recovery. (You may remember that I was hospitalized for seventy days and given tons of medication during two surgeries.) I went to church yesterday in my wheelchair. At home, I also use a walker. The doctors have said that it will be a long recovery. I'm working with a therapist and still appreciate your prayers.

I also want to call attention to the blue sky.
Although Johnny and I have never used it, our grandchildren have.

hi sally ! it's my first time to join your blue monday ^^
ReplyDeletetake care, and hope you'll feel better soon. God bless :)
That's a huge play area. Happy blue Monday Sally. Take care.
ReplyDeleteSally, this is the first time I have checked into my blog in nearly a month, and I dropped over to here to see how you are feeling. I'm so glad to get the report, and I'm happy you were able to get to church. I know you are going to make great progress with your healing, and I am praying that for you, my sweet friend. Sending you much love across the miles straight to your doorstep. Loved seeing the pool and the play area there.
ReplyDeleteXO,
Sheila
Your neighbor's house is a grand. I love their pool and waterfall

Glad to hear you're making some progress! It's always nice to find out that everything you're feeling is an expected part of recovery and not something that makes the doctors go "Hmm.." when you tell them. Keep up the good work and you'll be lounging in that beautiful pool with your grandchildren splashing by as part of your therapy!
ReplyDeleteHappy Blue Monday!

I hope you continue to do well. Thanks for hosting.
ReplyDeleteWould be great to be there right now. Today it´s raining and blowing here in Stockholm and we really can feel autumn is here.
ReplyDeleteSally~ So happy to hear you are doing well..

xoxo

Hi Sally, I'm so glad that you are improving, even if it is slowly. My prayers are always for you each day.
ReplyDeleteI am confused about the pool. It is not showing on my computer. Unless it is in the background of the playground photo. I am sure your grands love swimming in that nice recreation area. We had the same thing in our neighborhood in Kissimmee. It was lovely for our grands and us too. However, it wasn't a pretty shade of blue.
We were in FL for the Gator game on Sat. A quick trip. We drove down on Friday and returned on Sunday. They won! Go Gators! Smile.
Take care and have a good week.
Love, Jeanne
That swimmingpool area looks just great to me! I'd love to have one like that close to my house ...
ReplyDeleteI hope your recovery will speed up a little, take care!
Who could be 'blue' in such a place?
ReplyDeleteWow, it's a beautiful place!
ReplyDeleteHappy Blue Monday.
I am happy to find your distinguished way of writing the post. Now you make it easy for me to understand and implement. Your writing style is eloquent, revitalizing and fairly interesting.

Beautiful pool area Sally. It's getting cooler here in North Carolina but that's good for the apples. I'm glad you're improving day by day. This has been a tough journey for you and yours. {{{Hugs}}}

ReplyDeleteHappy Blue Monday. ~ Sarah
PS
Didn't see a link for Blue Monday. Will check back later to link up. ;-)
Glad to hear you are making progress. Love the pool, looks like a fun place for the kids.
ReplyDeletewhat a great place to enjoy ..big and small alike
ReplyDeleteThat looks like great fun! So glad to hear you're improving and I wish you well on your recovery. I wish you didn't have to feel nauseated and all while recuperating, but hopefully that will pass in time.
ReplyDeleteHi Sally, long time no visit. I was for sure going to get a post ready for today, but I didn't make it, so maybe next week.
ReplyDeleteChris
Nice place! Best wishes, Sally!
ReplyDeleteI saw yesterday the movie The Diving Bell and the Butterfly.
Poor guy was paralyzed after a stroke, but he dictated a book (onto which the film is based) one letter at a time, by blinking his one good eye. Once for yes, twice for no. Perspective...We should all appreciate what we still can do...
Hi Sally, Those are some fun blues today! I have a feeling that you are going to get a kick out of the blues that I found.
ReplyDeleteHi, Smiling Sally girl...I am so thankful for your recovery..even tho it's slow and hard, it is a step forward.
ReplyDeleteI think of you most every day. So sorry this all happened. Just keep plugging along at it, dear one, and you will be better and better, ea day.
I didn't have even a speck of blue today, so I will work on it for next week.

Your pool looks lovely. Our outdoor pool is closed for the winter now (bummer).

ReplyDeleteThank you Sally for the drop...I'm very touched considering how you are coping there. I'm silently reading your blog and you're endurance and positiveness is inspiring! Sunshine after the rain...as always.

It is good to hear that you were able to go to church Sunday. I'm sure all your friends were so glad to see you. Take care and don't rush it. Your pool looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteNice pictures, I love those beautiful blue.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are steadily getting better. I wish we had a pool and playground in our subdivison. That looks very nice and I bet the grandkids love it. Have a great week Sally!

ReplyDeleteDear Sally, Your recovery, though it may be slow is still a recovery. Each and every day you are a wee bit better. I know it has been a long road and I pray you you will continue to improve. I'm so happy to hear you are up on a walker at home. I will continue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeleteYour community pool is such a luxury. I know your grands enjoy it and I hope you can see it from your home. Water is so soothing to ones spirit. Take care and thanks for hosting such a great party.
