Readers know by now that I enjoy doing jigsaw puzzles but this week I enjoyed one which really is unique. The finished puzzle is 18 inches by 12 inches and has 1,000 pieces - timey miniature pieces which almost had to be placed with tweezers. It had a beautiful Japanese garden scene. I had a bit of help from our grandson Thomas when he came over on Monday afternoon due to no school day.
What a nice way to relax after my friend Carol Schroeder, her daughter Loretta Smith and my daughter-in-law, Anna Wolfe took me out for lunch on Monday. This was my second fun outing since my accident and the first visit back to Winkler's teahouse, Gingerwood Lanes. Then in the evening we were invited for cake and coffee at the yunge Wolfe's. It was a wonderful way to spend my birthday especially since I almost didn't make it to this one.
I received a phone call from my surgeon, Dr. Pilkey, on Tuesday morning giving me the red light for weight bearing on my right ankle to the degree I find doable. This was good news to a point; I still cannot go back to work but it is progress.
School update
Next week Border Land schools have spring break. I wish all the families take a bit of time to play and enjoy the sunshine. They get one extra day by going back on the following Tuesday instead of Monday due to Monday being Administration Day.
April 16 and 17 are parent/teacher interviews and Apr. 18 has no classes because it's Good Friday.
