Good morning! We've had a busy couple of days. Lucille is looking and sounding much better; of course, she still has the cast on her right arm, but that doesn't stop her from being independent and getting about. Her lip is still a bit swollen, but every day looks better. We're just glad her injuries were 'minor'.  Linda continues to get better - still has some stuff coming out of the drains, but #2 is supposed to be removed today (hardly ever has anything in it) - then only 2 more to go. She is so much stronger now - easily gets out of bed and wanders around the unit on her own - especially when she's unhooked from the 'pole'. And she's enjoying having her Mom here - yesterday, they had a lovely full afternoon visit (while Leagh, [Tracy's client], and I went to see the Narnia movie in 3D. Last night, when I went up to see her, her cousin, Les, came by and regaled us all (even Linda's new roommate) with stories about his and Suzanne's trip to Guatemala. Today, we're guests (although I imagine we'll also be kitchen help!!) at a luncheon here at Tracy's with her family - really looking forward to Tracy's cooking (yum!!!!!) and meeting more of the family. Then, we really are going off to the Farmers Market with Linda this afternoon. Coady and Chicklet are doing just fine - we're amazed at their resiliancy(sp?). And I'm sooo glad to have my 'dog heaters' back in bed with me.
