At My Place: Catching Up on Old Promises

t is definitely quiet here now than when my brother and sister-in-law were busy in the kitchen, doing DEEP-cleaning and making meals.

I've been catching up on my quiet times, but I have two medical appointments for tomorrow afternoon. One to be fitted for compression stockings, and the other to go back to my Nurse Practitioner who is my (new) doctor now.

I've been using some quiet time to think and pray about some decisions I will need to make soon.

Also, some projects did not get finished last week and so I am still trying to solve those problems.

Plus, to keep a promise to look up some research work I'd done several years ago. I haven't got to that yet, but I do hope to work it in quite soon.

All summer I kept promising myself I would truly spend time this winter downsizing the stuff in my basement. Of course my spine fractures delayed me, but now I've been asking myself if I should even start—or try to do this in cautiously short time frames?

It might be good to have someone else do the heavy lifting for me.... but would we just end up talking a lot?

What's New: Good News for the Coming Weekend!

You may recognize this as stretch to find positive news on short notice.. But really, truly, I saw on the forecast for the rest of this week and into the next, that we are to have reasonably low minus temperatures over today and the next two days.

Then on Friday, 0 degrees with some clouds, Saturday we'll have +6 Celsius with clouds! Sunday it will be +6 with sunshine!!

Notice how spring is edging in closer and closer? We can cheer up! The Real Spring is only weeks away!

Tips & Solutions: A Quick Refresher Course in Bone Density


https://ruthes-secretroses.com/category/rb/index.shtml

You may have learned about bones in health or sports classes in school and university, and you may have thought it was all boring stuff.

As we get older, bone density can be a huge problem in our bodies and our lives. If you would like to get a refresher course in the basics about bone and density in bones, and how that changes over your lifetime, you may want to watch this short video.

Note: You may find it weird that they have people standing still as if statues, but I suppose that is to focus on the bones instead of other parts of our lives. I just watched this for the first time last night and was surprised at how much I didn't know, or had simply forgotten.

It doesn't hurt—until a bone, even a tiny one, get a Simple fracture. Then it hurts for 8 weeks straight!
