here's the saturday afternoon update on duckie:

i took my best girl out to lunch at La Fonda (a fancy tex-mex restaurant here in SA)yesterday.

she REALLY enjoyed same, but it was a REAL PROJECT to get her/LEG/BRACE/all her stuff into/out of the buick! (this is one time that i wished i had a van or suburban!).

i also took her to the nail salon for "refilling nails" & a pedicure, which she also ENJOYED!

she is only using her walker, when she/we leave the environs of the kitchen, bedroom & den. otherwise, she is getting around pretty well in that part of the house, w/o it.

the stitches MAY be removed next wednesday afternoon, but the Dr says that she must remain IMMOBILIZED in that (damned) brace for 6-8 weeks MINIMUM! (NOTE: i MAY go buy that van/suburban!)

her attitude is EXCELLENT, but she "wears out" FAST. (duckie is a FIGHTER & WILL beat this "thing" i believe.)

that's the scoop!

hugs/kisses, duckie & sw
