My brother called last night to tell me he and my SIL will be coming for a visit on Labour Day weekend.  I'm trying to decide if I want to go back with them so I can be there for Rosh Hashana... it's only a few days later.

At that point, I have to think about where to stay and how to get home again.  My father will pay for a train ticket for me, but I don't know if I can handle a 5-6 hour train ride.  I'll check with the surgeon next week..if he's back from vacation. 

And, I need to think about where I'll stay.  I don't think I can handle staying at my Father's and I can't stay at my brother's, cause he has patients going in and out.  Northbard's place is no good because there's too many stairs. :-(  I may be stuck with the old man.

On the other hand, I could just stay home as usual. :-)

the last steri strip fell off yesterday.  According to Adi, it looks really good.  I'm only having pain in my back when I move the wrong way.  Otherwise, it seems to be fine.  And I'm down to 12mg/day. :-)    I'll drop another one on the 23rd.

I've not been walking in the past two days.  Just haven't really felt like it.  I know that's not good, but.. there it is. :-)

I made a delicious pork dish tonight.  C. had given me a frozen piece of osso bucco style pork.  Bone in.  Today, I put it into the slow cooker with onions, garlic, mushrooms, potatoes and carrots.  Added about 3 cups of water, rosemary, oregano, bay, herbamare, pepper and a saltfree seasoning spice.  Cooked it all day.  Tonight, I thickened it with some masa and proceeded to eat half of it for dinner.  Shall finish it tomorrow night.
