But luckily time is passing faster and with less pain I'm able to focus on reading books! <br />You ask for the result of my shoulder scan—another closed fracture but I don't need surgery.<br />Oh, Pieter picked that azalea up at Home Depot and it sure is stunning!<br />Speckie has recovered some, she was really sick and then her siblings were growling at her because she smelled of medicine and they all dread going to the Vet.<br />Thanks for your love!<br />Hugs,<br />MarietteMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1974466215163623524.post-61110229479768305262023-03-24T01:09:44.434-04:002023-03-24T01:09:44.434-04:00So very sorry to hear that you are still in such p...So very sorry to hear that you are still in such pain.
