A couple of days ago I opened th e door in the late Q it wa s kind o f surprised to see a box sitting to the side of my door. This was a little perplexing because I knew that I had not really ordered anything recently so I wasn't really expecting anything to see any deliveries but here is a box. What I ended up thinking was that this box was from some medical place and something that my new occupational therapist or physical therapist or wound care nurse has ordered in. Remember me tell you about all these professionals that are now and part of my life providing all these services? Anyway. I wasn't really too interested in wrestling open a box of medication in our materials to clean wounds. I figured that would be something I'd have my care person do. It really is a challenge for me to open up well sealed packages. I pushed the package under the table and would wait until Melissa got here and then have her do the honor of opening up the materials. So Wednesday morning when Melissa finally did show up I had her open up the box following her morning coffee. I was totally blown away when she opened the box and looked at me and ! it's a book! I remember thinking I should have realized that it was the perfect size for a book and that's how it's felt before when these volumes have arrived at my front door. I have to admit I had some excitement at the volume it's the brand new Stephen King offering that I hadn't even heard about. And here it was mine and once again no identification of any sort. I think there's only two people that could have sent this to me or would have sent this to me and that would be my little sister or a good friend Dennis. I've got a couple other Stephen King's soon after they were published in the mail this way. Linda my younger sister somehow found out that I enjoyed Stephen King's writings and from then on was always sending me the new volume when it was published. How cool is that?
Interestingly, the whole pile of books showed up at the giveaway table last week. I wrote briefly about this the other day where I picked up a couple volumes that looked fairly interesting. I just finished the last little book I got in the mail similar to this volume I'm writing about. And I started one of the other volumes last night or maybe the night before and now I want to finish it before I start off on the Stephen King. I don't know if I have the patience or the will to do such a thing I'll just have to see. I got the kid letters in the mail this morning, one of the first things I did after I got dressed and before and before my physical therapist showed up- which I totally forgot that she was coming. Later in the afternoon my physical therapist showed up and we went through a number of exercises and the most strenuous being with different colored elastic bands. I could not find any of my small hand weights so we did the elastic bands and that will work for the next couple days till I can find something better. After Greg the therapist left I put on my hat and went to the bus stop and took it a movie so it's been a busy day I'm looking forward to some sleep..
