Went to the PT last Friday. Practitioner said my gait was OK, but had some muscle weakness. She gave me some exercises to help with leg muscle strength. Have begun doing the exercises daily.

My oldest son and his family drove up for the weekend. He spent the night with me on Friday night and we had a chance to share some time together. He installed some grab rails in my bathtub area. They really help me get in/out of the tub and provide stability when I shower.

Also got a chance to spend some time with his two daughters. S is a lovely child--sweet and caring. AR is a character--really joyous and bright. It was a treat to see them and his wife, M.

I rested a lot on Easter. BH came on Monday and brought a great lunch. Today, I went to the library and ran some errands. I drove today and several times over the weekend. Good to be mobile. GH is doing lunch tomorrow--his special pasta dish!

BH brought me an expanded manuscript of GH's life and stories. It's an expanded version of the short manuscript he'd given me. I look forward to reading it.

Got a call from an old friend, JK, who lives in Sante Fe. She'll be coming through in June. Will be good to see her.
