It's a quiet Saturday afternoon.
The sun was out for a while.
Just enough to tempt me into going out back.
I sat with my new cat cup filled with coffee.
The girls, Maddy Jean and Jodie Belle, were playing.
Meredith Ann was on her leash chewing grass.
Me, I sat on the steps,
thinking and taking in the delights of my woods.
The sounds are too much.
Trying to figure out who is talking to who.
Which bird flew to that tree.
Just a wild bunch I have in my woods.
Nice to be able to walk out there.
As of yesterday, I am no longer using my cane.
Not here at home.
My day surgery last week has done wonders.
I don't have sharp pain when I stand on my leg.
It's still a bit like rubber and not totally dependable
but, I do think that I am good as can be expected.
I've been busy going to other appointments.
This time for my kidney problems that were
discovered in my mri for my spine.
The ct done this week showed a lot more than I wanted.
Yesterday, I got a call that my Dr. wants to get me in
for kidney surgery as soon as possible.
I am being handed over to the surgery nurse.
Next week I will start the process of scheduling the when and where
and tests that might need to be done before.
If all goes well, I'll only be in the hospital a day or two.
See why I haven't had time to write.
Been having too much fun going here, there and everywhere.
My family wonders how I'm coping with all of this at the same time.
Not much else I can do but enjoy the day.
Worry about tomorrow another day.
So, on this sort of sunny Saturday,
I enjoy the simple things that bring me great joy.
My Purr and Fur Gang,
Coffee,
and The Sounds in My Woods.

Oh, yes, fun, fun, fun. (Sarcasm)
I don't know why the Universe doles out so much to certain people to deal with over the course of their lives. I used to think there was some higher purpose to it all, but now...Well, most of the time I just think it's the roll of the dice, fate, whatever.
My own struggles have been more mental health than physical health, and for me, it seems that compassion is born out of suffering. Maybe that's the best one can take away, a greater sense of understanding, of tolerance, of compassion for other Beings' suffering.
I'm so glad you are able to stand without that pain! That in itself is terrific. But the kidney surgery sounds scary....I'm sending you all the positive healing energy I can possibly muster, and the boys are revving up their purr motors.
(((Hugs)))
We're sending you many healing and calming purrs.

JC - I am back to catching up with some of my favorite bloggers. Sorry to hear things have been challenging for you lately. Sending warmth thoughts and prayers your way as you deal with the upcoming kidney surgery.
Sending love and hugs and purrs. Really. xox
Girl~
I am so glad that the leg is better! This really is great! Onward now to the Kidney thing!!
Hugs and prayers!
LeAnn (And my furgang)
You are in our thoughts and prayers, my friend....take care....
Sounds like you have not been having a good time, lately, either. Glad the leg is better and that the rest of it follows suit.
In the meanwhile, purrs are very healing. (Although someone slobbering all over your feet because of the fireworks does NOT help - we have checked that one out thoroughly, Annie and I.)
Sending prayers and purrs, and wags...
JC living in the present moment and allowing Nature to soothe and heal the best medicine as you gather strength and prepare both physically & mentally for your next hurdle.I have and will continue to hold you in my prayers.
Sending healing energey your way with a BIG comforting hug.
Love and light Anna xoxo
