”The sloth’s slumber is not laziness, but a symphony of rest.” 

Today is a rest day. I again woke up quite late, let the dogs out, brewed a pot of coffee, had a couple of cups, read the newspaper and finished all the puzzles. By then it was close to 1:30. I decided not to write today as I have some things needing doing, but I figured I’d at least give you an update.

First, my leg is a bit better. I slept through the night and through the morning without waking up. I can walk pretty well, but I can’t bend over on my right side without some pain. It took a while to get my sock on my right foot. When I sit for a while, my leg does hurt when I get up, but all in all, it is better. This is week four of the three to five weeks the doctor told me it would take to heal. My nephew and my friend, both into sports medicine, gave me the same time line.

The floors of my house have dog hair everywhere, Henry hair, piles of it. They move when I walk by them. They need to be swept or vacuumed, but I’ll wait another couple of days. I admit I am being driven crazy by all that fur, but I’ll just have to dredge up some patience.

Today I am a sloth for all the right reasons.
