3.1.13 Follow-Up Friday: Almost There & A Chair

01 Mar

winter walk 1Following up on Monday Mischief, the dogs and I have started to walk a little again.  Recovery is about 50% there, if I don’t screw it up.  I tend to try and do to much to soon, because I am impatient.  I see the surgeon next week, so we will see what he thinks.  I am walking the girls further and further every day.  We are all really happy to be getting back to ‘normal,’ especially with spring coming.  I haven’t tried to walk down to the water since last month when I had trouble getting back up the hill and started to cry.  Maybe soon though.

In response to the Wordless Wednesday post on Louise hanging off her office chair, everyone said that I need to go out and get her a dog bed, bean bag, coach, or (my favorite from Cupcake) a Barkolounger.  WunderButt offer us his chair, which was very nice.   This weekend I definitely need to see what the options are.  I think she will still hop up in her chair most of the time because she likes to be up at my level but thank your all for the suggestions.

People were in love with the little Munchkin kitty that I posted a GIF of on Wednesday.    They are like a corgi kitty: little legs with a big heart.  Peanut turned me on to this newly created breed of cat that was noticed around 1983.  The history can be found on Wikipedia – Munchkin Cat. 

I can’t believe today is the first of March.  That means 20 days until Northern Spring!  Yahoo!!!!  Birds have been flocking to the feeders and the bird bath.

    Wishing you a very speedy recovery but don’t go pushing it too far again. I hate to think of you out there, crying because you can’t make it back. Broke my heart really.
    If I know dogs, then you can get whatever new chair you want, Louise will still try to fit onto that one 🙂

      I am trying to gauge the walks by the pain, but sometimes, you go out and you still need to come back. I am learning. And regarding the chair – absolutely right.

    Slow and steady wins the race. Rest heals. You can’t rush that. Maybe YOU need to sit in a BarkoLounger!!

    Great follow-up! Thanks for participating in FUF.

    I am glad to hear that you are well on your way to recovery and working on getting back to normal. I too am fairly impatient, but I’ve learned to listen to my body. It will tell me when it gets to be too much.

    We had a cat once that absolutely loved the bean bag chair. He would lounge on it all the time. I never thought of getting one for the dogs though. 🙂

    Have a great weekend, the birds are singing away up here and it is music for our souls. 🙂

      Ah Nellie – that is a true quote. I’m not good at that though.
