Well, Challenging Months for Me

 It's been a bit since I posted.  

First, we had a very successful Ringle Harvest Day, it was my 29th year organizing it.  With my disease I was praying I wouldn't fall and I didn't.  We had a beautiful day, so many happy customers and vendors.  On to 3oth...

I did fall, Monday after, at the town meeting.  Good thing the fire department was right there.  I did break my femur.

In all honesty, I don't remember much of the first several days in the hospital.  I had surgery and then moved to the inpatient rehab area.  I was in hospital for 3 weeks.  

Look at all my hardware....

After a home visit, some moving around of furniture, fresh painting of a few rooms, resanding, staining wood floors (because, why not...rooms are empty.  Thanks Al) and transfer approvals, I was able to come home.  I am able to have in home therapies for now.  

I was totally blown over with a surprise from our town.  They made me a sign...I can't believe it.  My friend said, "it's not a memorial (because of disease) but a recognition of your accomplishments, we all still expect you to keep doing what you do."  The television station was there too.  I was so overwhelmed with emotions.

 

I feel so blessed.

We had a nice Thanksgiving just our children here.  Al helped me with the food.  The girls each brought things too.  

A few more last of season bouquets from a flower subscription someone gave me.  I loved it!

Al did get a 7 point buck for rifle hunting season.  

My friends took over a selling space next to my office/shop and we have been selling like a Christmas Conjunction.  It has been fun, the days I was able get out and go over there.  We have this week yet to sell - it was meant to be just seasonal.  

Well, that rounds out October and November for me.  Looking forward to December activities.

Blessings from Ringle, Wisconsin.
