Well we're home again. On Saturday I went to the hospital and had my ankle xrayed. No broken bones I'm happy to report, but they wanted me to come back on Sunday for an Ultra Sound to check for blood clots. Good news here as well - blood clots, but they are concerned by the swelling in my andle so they are sending me to an orthopaedic clinic on January the 18th. In the meantime they want me to get a walking boot but wouldn't you know it, these are on back order. Ah well, I'll just see how it goes. It's still swollen but I keep it elevated as much as I can.
We came home to have lots of work done by Bernie. He finished the trim around the stairs and trimmed off 11 windows for us. I'm so happy, they look great. He also put some cove moulding up for us in the front hall which allows us to finally paint this area as well. Today after work I primed the 3 windows in our kitchen. I can't wait to get the paint on. It's my goal to have all the windows painted in the next two to three weeks. We'll see if I meet that goal. Tomorrow I'll try to put the first coat of paint on the kitchen windows and then I'll move to the bathroom upstairs. I'd really like to get all the walls painted in the bedrooms, living room, dining room, hallways and kitchen before the summer this year. It's a big task but I'll tackle it one room at a time. I may look to see if I can hire someone to paint the walls. I have most of the paint already. We'll see as I don't mind painting and you can do a room in an evening, or on a Saturday. We'll see how busy Ralph and I get.
