Thursday, July 15 - 55?

 7:23 a.m. - Today I'm 55; I'm perplexed how the heck that happened.  Shouldn't I be like 25? :)  Yesterday, my visit to the doctor didn't net much new information, but I did get some medicine to work on my left foot, as the Doc thinks it's just athlete's foot.  As far as the knee, I've got a prescription to help with the pain, and he referred me to a doctor at ORA, so I'll soon be setting an appointment for getting another MRI to take a look at the knee and see what options I have.  I was supposed to go get a brace to immobilize my knee, but I tried to go, and the order hadn't been sent yet.  I'm not driving in again; plus, how the heck am I going to function in life immobilizing my right knee?  Amber and I went for lunch and a casino attempt.  I didn't lose as much as I usually do, so that's a win right?  Later in the afternoon, Luke and Brinley stayed with us up until the evening.  Amber did get me a book about the Battle of Gettysburg, and I really like it...it's sort of a step-by-step guide to the battle with pics and maps.  I'll be spending some time with the book this morning (now that I've got the garbage and recycle out and have filled the birdfeeder).  Did I mention it's raining again?  I think since yesterday we've gotten 2-3 inches of rain.  I had to go out to the pool and backwash water out to bring it to a lower level.  Once the rain stops this morning, I'm going to need to add chlorine to help negate the effects of all this rain.  If I don't get the chlorine in, the pool water will get cloudy, and we are supposed to have a birthday party here for Ava on Saturday.  Actually, after I pour in the chlorine, I may go get some more in case two jugs of chlorine doesn't keep the water clear.  And I LOVE going to the pool supply story (not).  I'm not sure what the rest of today will entail...Amber works until 1 p.m. I think, and I think Tucker might be with us today too.  Maybe I'll run over and see mom and dad later this morning.
