Well...it's been two weeks since my accident and when I woke up today and looked at my foot, I could actually see space between my usually swollen toes. They are still purple (and green), but they are thinner. I'm still taking it easy today and will tomorrow, too. I found someone to take my Primary class again.
I even hobbled outside briefly and saw the state of all my flower gardens. *sigh* Oh well... I won't be able to get in and weed them or prune the roses or cut some of my beautiful zinnias for a bouquet right now, but I forgot how beautiful and profuse flowers are in September. So I took a book outside, sat in my anti-gravity chair and finished it while steeling glances at the back garden and feeling the sun and a cool wind on my body.
I read in Organic Gardening to plant Morning Glories with Sunflowers so they will grow up the lanky stalks. I think that was a mistake. It looks like my sunflowers are choking as they droop over with masses of Morning Glory vines encompassing them. haha. It's from lack of supervision these last two weeks. I went out almost every day to arrange the vines on the side fence, so they are definitely rebelling from lack of discipline.
It's really amazing what a difference a split second can make in your life.
I have decided to be positive and when people ask how I'm doing, I am saying, "Better, thanks," and then believing it. It has made a world of difference since I was feeling sorry for myself because I can't do anything.
But I know that my Heavenly Father is watching out for me and my angels were working overtime. When I think what could have happened and what did happen...it makes me oh, so grateful for His love.
