March 5, 2011

A friend of mine has appointed himself my literary prompter. He has shamed me once again into going back to my writing. Ever the procrastinator, I find that I have let the month of February fly by without one word committed to my blog. Writers are supposed to write every day. Writers are disciplined. Would that I could be disciplined enough to finish writing projects.

March is my birthday month. Perhaps the writing muse will descend upon me this month.

I have not been inactive. Working out in my physical therapy sessions twice weekly and riding the stationary bike on non-PT days has really helped me regain balance and mobility. The back brace has been put in storage and I put the cane away when March began. I began driving by myself in February which gave me a greater sense of freedom. I see my oncologist once a month for monitoring of my blood. There have been no changes in my status up to this point. I continue to be checked every two weeks for my Coumadin level in order to keep those nasty blood clots away!

Life is interesting and fulfilling. I have been blessed in my recovery from the close call in November. Perhaps it is true that God had continuing plans for me. As such, I am enjoying life with my family and friends.

No speeding tickets in the ‘vette as of this date!
