In just a couple weeks everything on this house will be finished, I almost can't believe it myself. I hope to have it listed at the end of February, weather permitting.
All prior plans for a quick refinish went out the window with the accident. I can tell you clearly that when someone uses the expression, "Busier than a one armed paper hanger." I have more than lived it the last few months, and that is one busy person.
One thing that marks every home I have ever sold, is a completely over the top chandelier. I cannot resist a sparkling over the top chandelier. Another is a passion for built ins. This house has a few things from my list of trademarks. I was rebuilding it for myself and my after all.
Both house and property were very neglected. I remember a car stopping and a comment, "Someone moved into the place, just what we need another drug house" I like to think it was that same person just years later after the exterior was finished that stopped out front, "My God, it is like someone put a brand new house there". I am certain it isn't the same person as from years earlier, but I like to think it was.
More to come on this thread over the next few weeks.

Valentine's Day is coming and love is in the air.
I don't think those who feel love celebrate it only once a year. I think love is to be lived and celebrated every moment.
Love isn't all kisses and gropes, it is more than that. Love is a that brings you a flower picked from your own garden. Love is the sparkle that glistens off the water and the day begins and comes to an end. Love is the moment a person takes to help another whether friend or stranger. Love is many things and no one thing, equally.
Even though Love is to be lived and celebrated every day, on this one day, take a moment reflect on just what love is to you.

I admit it, I am a hopeless romantic. I enjoy LOVE.
I think there is magic in love. I know it sounds crazy, but in real love, there must be just a pinch of magic.
If you do not have a valentine this year, pick one. Pick someone, and just do something nice for then....small is fine.

Good Luck

Physical Therapy: We reached the end of what we can do until (or unless) they do corrective surgery.

Orthopedics: Usually these things can be corrected by simply continuing Physical Therapy.

Me: (while reading that a CT scan was performed so insurance refused for an MRI, knowing that a CT scan cannot provide the necessary diagnostic information)

Perhaps, is an occupational hazard, but I been thinking a lot about losing the people we know and love. At our ages we all been through this. Our mothers and fathers, our brothers and sisters, friends we had for lifetimes, lovers, spouses, and some of us even lost our . We come an age, where seems a daily occurrence. How do we prepare ourselves for times like these?
Truth is, is almost impossible, if not completely impossible prepare ourselves. These last couple of years with the pandemics, millions lost loved ones. The pandemic has ripple effects. Hospitals and ER departments screen and limit the of people allowed accompany or even visit a loved one. So even those with illnesses or injuries unrelated Covid and its variants are affected. The last couple of years been a roller coaster ride for everyone. So very much loss.
Even on this site, we made and lost many friends over the years.
How do we prepare grieve? are those with a strong religious faith, they draw on faith and it gives them strength. Friends and family draw together during times of grief, sharing their strength and memories. I worked with patients and their families in the past as a part of my job. I also volunteered in local support groups, some communities them.
Family caregivers face so much in these times. Family caregiver, being someone caring for a spouse, a , sibling or a parent. Many of us either been in this role or will some day soon be in this roll. I hope that when that time comes, you will be able find at least one good source of emotional support. If possible give some thought before even happens as whom you might be able talk during this time.
Grief is the of love. We are more connected today than ever in history, so let's hope no one should face that journey alone.
