I'm finally beginning to get some things done. I planted the 2 tomato plants that I got at the market. The seedlings I started inside are hardening-off out on the porch, so I've got the diningroom table half cleared off. The other half of the table is full of a borrowed laptop & printer; I'm doing some book-keeping for a healthcare non-profit that's run by a friend, but strictly as a volunteer. I started cleaning my bedroom this morning-- got all of my shoes up off the floor & ran the dustmop, then put them all back in order. No more shoes kicked all the way back under the furniture. My two-cents about glucosamine: I've taken it from time to time, but I can't say that I've noticed any dramatic improvement. I was taking the liquid. I still take a couple of gel-caps once in a while when I think of it, but not often. But I do have a bad knee-- the cartilage is nearly gone in my left knee-- so I have quite a bit of pain when I take my first few steps. But, a few weeks ago I bought a pair of Shape-Ups (shoes) by Skechers, and I can honestly say that my knee hasn't bothered me since I've been wearing them. I don't walk very far, but my knee really feels better. My gait is a little different (like my feet are farther apart when I walk) but it seems to be working out. I'll keep you posted. Maryanne
