I'm maintaining well and I got my new hand splint this morning... It's black and shining it should keep me amused for a few days ... I download loaded the Darth Vader's light saber sound from Star Wars to my phone and every time I move my hand I press the sound....it's pretty cool..
I saw this in my wife's ADA Newsletter
THE NEW YEAR'S DIET Twas the month after Christmas, and all through the house, Nothing would fit me, not even a blouse. The cookies I'd nibbled, the eggnog I'd taste, At the holiday parties had gone to my waist!
When I got on the scales there arose such a number! When I walked to the store (less a walk than a lumber). I remembered the marvelous meals I'd prepared; The gravies and sauces and beef nicely rared, The wine and the rum balls, the bread and the cheese, And the way I'd never said, "No thank you, please."
As I dressed myself in my husband's old shirt, And prepared once again to do battle with dirt, I said to myself, as only I can, "You can't spend all winter disguised as a man!" So away with the last of the sour cream dip, Get rid of the fruit cake, every cracker and chip, Every last bit of food that I like must be banished, 'Til all the additional ounces have vanished.
I won't have a cookie -- not even a lick, I'll want only to chew on a long celery stick. I won't have hot biscuits, or corn bread, or pie, I'll munch on a carrot and quietly cry! I'm hungry, I'm lonesome, and life is a bore, But isn't that what January is for?
Unable to giggle, no longer a riot, Happy New Year to all and to all a good diet!
