Still Improving At Home

As a good friend reminded me today, it's been a while since I posted. Sorry if you were checking this blog every day for updates. I was waiting until things seemed to be on an upward trajectory.

After my last posting I discovered that a lot of solid food was not a good thing to be eaten for the evening meal. So, I've been eating soup and fruit for dinner. Lunches have included many delicious victuals brought in by friends. I still have a refrigerator full of things to last for several more days.

My sleep pattern has gotten steadier; I average two hours at a stretch, with a total of about seven hours per night. Tylenol PM is good for getting to sleep. I'm still in my little twin bed, which is set up in the dining room, but I plan to move back upstairs to my bedroom by the weekend.

I have started doing some household chores like swiffering and vacuuming, laundry, and washing dishes (well, I had to do that after Tim left last Thursday.) I've been out on a couple of excursions with friends and have been walking further distances. Last Sunday I attended worship at the college as a part of the final service of the Lutheran Summer Music Festival and Academy. I even sang on some of the hymns, and not wobbly, either.

Tomorrow I'm planning on having lunch at a restaurant with my friend H. George Anderson. It will mark another milestone if successful--eating out.

If things continue to progress as they have, I probably won't post again until after my check-up visit with Dr. Farnell on August 4.

As always, thanks for your interest, concern, prayers, comments, etc.
