Merde! I just posted a long post and it didn't "take".

Sorry. I just don't have time to post it again.

I've finally gotten home after a zooish day at work where I couldn't leave until over a half hour after I should have, headed to the hospital to see Tom and deliver most of the entertainment (he said he wouldn't have time to listen to Flashman cuz of what they have planned tomorrow and Tuesday), got home, brought in as much wood as I could carry along with my purse and briefcase, restarted the fire (some coals left), made and ate dinner (in front of the computer) and now gotta get some more wood so I can go to bed and wind down at some point.

No, Mary -- Tom just plain won't use a treadmill. But I will be able to get him walking when they sort out the pain in his legs. He had the DOCTOR tell him he needs to be more active and why; he doesn't listen to me about stuff like that, even though I've been explaining it to him for years. Sorry, I'm frustrated and exhausted and have got a whole bunch of stuff to get done tonight and tomorrow morning before going to work.

Later,
Linn
