Hot and very humid!! That was the weather for today. We got up nice and early so we could take our walk before it got too warm. The sky was overcast and it looked like it might rain at any moment, but we walked two miles without a drop.
After breakfast, we got cleaned up and then headed off to Bemidji where I was scheduled for my annual mammogram. I didn't have any wait, so we were back out of the clinic within half an hour. We then headed to our favorite lunch spot--Burger King for a couple of Whopper Jr.'s and fountain diet cokes. From there it was on to Wal-Mart to pick up a few groceries and then we hit the road back to Bagley.
John and I were home just long enough to unload the car, put the groceries away, and then head back into town for his first PT session. His therapist is very nice and spent plenty of time showing John the four exercises he is to start doing. They are very limited in movement and he still has to keep his elbow right next to his body. She did what they call passive arm movements today--this means he completely relaxes his arm and she does all the moving of it. She was very pleased with his lack of pain and the amount of movement he has--first goal is to get full range of motion back.
On our travels back and forth today, we noticed that the Tel Com company had returned and was burying the new optic cable in the ditches along the road. By the time we returned from John's PT appointment, they had our driveway dug up again so we had to park out on the road until they got everything back in place. In the process, they accidentally smashed our mail box, so we will be getting a new one real soon, compliments of Tel Com.
Matt, Sara and the kids stopped over tonight so John and I could help Hanna get her photos ready for the fair. I had some extra frames and mats she could use, so we all worked together and got the pics all set for entry day on Wednesday. After everyone headed home, the rest of our evening was pretty quiet and uneventful.
We have started this blog to keep family and friends updated with news and photos about our lives in both Minnesota and Texas. We hope you will check in often and enjoy sharing our experiences.
