Journal Entry for March 30, 2009 Mood
Monday, March 30, 2009 | A Happy story

Hi,  I am feeling the best I have felt in a long time.  I am having some swelling in my left foot and ankle and my veins seem to be getting worse but its not anything I can't live with.  I am wondering if the blood thinner I am takeing has anything to do with the vericose veins getting worse.  The weather here has been windy the past few days but other than that it's pretty nice.  I have lots of flowers blooming.  My camera broke so I can't take any pics. of them. Bummer '''''''    Hugs to you all'''   Carol

    Hi Carol, I'm so glad you are feeling better. It is amazing to discover that we can heal and then look back and see how far we've come. I had swelling in my ankles for a very long time but as I got more active it went away. As the weather gets nicer and nicer, may you keep feeling better and better. Best wishes, Janet

    I have petunia's,inpatients,colombine,bachlor button's,iris,pansies,snapdragons,Delphinium,Golden bush honeysuckle,Hibisus,Gazania,and others that I have forgotton the names. I do most of my plantings in containers as the soil here is like a rock. I would like to plant a small garden but am unable to prepare the soil so I just need to forgeat about it. I also have a lot of succulants and some cactus. My camera broke or I would take some pictures and post them so you could see what I have.

    I had some swelling during chemo also. I think it is from the steroids. Or just that they put so much fluids into you. I am glad you are feeling good. Enjoy your flowers. Love and hugs.
