Meet Alfie

 No wonder I get got confused. I have several things going on right ow and a doctor for each issue! Monday I went  to the doctor thinking it was for my fractured shoulder....no...it was for the Achilles surgery! While that doctor is pleased with my healing, he suggested a compression anklet and a sleep boot. Alan ordered. Returning will be my decision or if something happens...not that we are going to let something happen. The doctor mentioned that I need to be in a bubble. He was not very pleased at all with my sandals. No..not support and told Alan I needed a good pair of sneakers. so off we went to get a pair of cross training New Balance. Tomorrow is the doctor for the shoulder....and not too soon. 

This is Alfie Ambrosino... Bobby's kitty. The quilt is the one Dianna is working on. Alfie, like Murphy cannot resist claiming these quilts as soon as they are put down! Haven't seen Dianna this week, looking forward to seeing how much more is done. Did I mention we are already planning our next one?

Yesterday was the 5th anniversary of my Dennis' passing. Amazing how the time rolls on by. I look back and my heart is filled of memories we collected with 48 years of marriage. I just thought we would be together forever.... we are in my heart but I do miss my hand in his, missing his smile and laugh, just everything about him. 

Very nice to visit with you today....thank you for your kind words and for your friendship.

Hi Gracie glad you invested in a good pair of sneakers...makes all the difference.I was told I shouldn't wear flip flops...but I just don't enjoy closed shoes..I want to be barefoot or flip flops. Lol. A rebel I am.. Alfie is cute...and the quilt is very nice...savor those memories of Dennis...he was such a big part of your life for SO very many years.

I have been married for 42 years and can't imagine life without him. I am happy though that you have your brother and sister in law, it sounds like they are wonderful. Enjoy your summer!

It is beautiful the way you keep Dennis' dear memory alive. I am certain such happy recollection are a comfort to you.
Hope you get your physical concerns out of the way and that the sneakers do the trick for your stability. The quilt is just what a treasured cat or puppy ordered.

Hugs to you, the date must have been hard. Hopefully, the cute kitten cheered you up - he looks like a perfect colour match on the quilt, doesn't he?

Cynthia said...

Gracie, sending lots of healing hugs to you both physically and emotionally. I know how hard Tuesday must have been for you. Glad Brother Alan is taking good care of you.

What a beautiful blue-eyed cat!
I can't believe it's 5 years since Mr H left us but you do keep his memory fresh in our minds.
