Monday/Tuesday Seven

1. Back pain woke me up Monday morning, and stayed with me all day.  Since it was a holiday, I took one.  I had stuff to eat, so didn't even go up for meals.
2. I spent a good part of the morning, sitting on the deck, reading the paper and enjoying some sunshine, low humidity, breezes, and hummingbirds.
3. This morning, the back was better.
4. I got to read the paper outside again.  Lovely.
5. The orthopedist and I agreed on getting my left knee replaced in midOctober.
6. The right knee might get done, too - decision not made on that yet.
7. I got to have lunch with Missy on a stopover as she went from Atlanta to Norris.  It'd been too long since we'd gotten together, and it was special.
