...and it's one I won't miss. Suddenly a lot of the blogs I read are offering "farewell to the 00's - what a ghastly decade" posts. Not sure I'm that down on the ten years we've almost lived through, though I definitely would not want to repeat any of them.
Especially this year, in which a broken wrist forced cancellation or rearrangement of far too many plans, and major surgery last month has so far left me almost inert for the run-up to Christmas.
Instead of the "5-7 days" in hospital optimistically predicted by the surgeon, I spent 19 days there, coming home the day before Thanksgiving. As I remind myself several times a day, things are going to be ALL RIGHT, but meantime, just moving around can be a challenge. When I finally went out for a walk, I moved carefully, like a very old person, swathed in layers of hats, jackets and scarves!
(Still, I was out. And walking. And enjoying it!)
I'm lucky to have family and friends close by, dropping in to keep my spirits up, and doing all manner of errands large and small. Thanks to everyone!

Huzzah for small steps towards a better decade! I'm rooting for you.
Drop me a line if there is anything you need the next few days.
