Hip . . . Again.

Well, since I got out of the hospital, got home, gone to P.T. and quit smoking I go to my final appointment with the Doc who reset my right leg and gave me the scar on my butt. I don’t mind. I am walking again but only around our block. It isn’t a normal suburbs type block it is longer around but neither is it a city block. What counts is that I am walking without assistance like a cane or a walker. It does hurt a little but I’ve been walking for so many years (decades, actually) that it feels familiar and confortable.

Thing is, my balance is not quite there yet so looking quickly over my shoulder has to be done more slowly than I am used to. I also put on the pair of shoes that I was wearing when i fell and broke the dang hip so I have that bug-a-boo taken care of also. It’ll be a while before I am doing three miles but I have a winter to get through so we’ll see how it goes. I could be dead so I will gladly take the recuperation and smile large while doing so.

Thanks to all of you who stuck with me through this on Xog Zap. Almost two million views so I am humbled and quite grateful to you all. I probably won’t say muh about this hip thing anymore here. Thanks for your patience with me.
