I used a POD which arrived last evening, but I managed to suffer through the week with a mini fridge, air mattress, and microwave.

Had ta dodge the truckers at any moments notice on the way here...they were quite intimadating!

But, I’m moved in now and things are goin’ good!

POD...do you pack those yourself? Did everything arrive in the same condition as packed?

Glad you now have your stuff and are getting settled. Hope you have some time before starting work.

LOL!!!

The lawn chair is a VERY vital part of the healing!!

I spend a lot of time in it outdoors...except when it's REALLY hot.

Your nurses did a FINE JOB getting you that chair.

They knew it would do you well. LOL!!

Is your summer weather doing a good job for you?

Summer is fine although it DOES get a little too hot for me once in a while.

I've noticed that since the surgery I don't do that well in really hot (above 95) weather.

But it'll get better.

Maybe all the drugs have helped make you sensitive to the heat. Do your nurses have giant fans to help cool down Dad?

I don’t handle heat above 75 very well and I have no excuse.

Have you and all your girls been able to get out at all?

When last we “spoke”, pain management was tough....is that getting better?

2.5 hours!! Get a good nights rest, eat breakfast, and stay alert! Hopefully your orientation will be interactive.

I like the idea of being responsible for your own packing, but hoping that the moving folks are careful with how they treat the PODs. Glad stuff got there safe and sound. So many horror stories of the moving folks making a real mess of things.

Your post got lost yesterday. Sorry! ;-)

Temple.

I lived at 13th and Spruce in a renovated old hotel in a one-room apartment on the 18th floor. It was my first place on my own and I have great memories of my time in Center City and the surrounding areas like Vet Stadium or Stone Harbor and Wildwood in the summers, etc. Oh, and Pat's Cheesesteaks!
