1. Are you feeling more reset, restart, or full speed ahead as we move into May? Tell us why. 

This is a tough one for me to answer. I'm hoping for a restart and full speed ahead after my surgery today. Hopefully I can link this up today.

2. Painting, sculpture, architecture, literature, cinema, theater, music...what's your favorite form of art? Elaborate.  

I'm guessing it's cinema. My dad managed a movie theater so I was always watching movies. In high school I had a birthday party there. We had the balcony to ourselves. 

I still love watching movies but we don't go to the show anymore. We stopped during the pandemic. We used to go all the time. However, there is plenty to watch on TV today. 

3. What time is dinner at your house? How do you feel about leftovers? 

Well we used to eat later but it seems the older we get the earlier we eat. We usually talk to Amber each day around 4:30 and sometimes 3:30. So sometimes we eat before and sometimes after our talks. 

4.What's the last thing you fell down a rabbit hole investigating? 

I guess all of my medical issues. 

5. And now for a question from the book Marilyn (Memphis Bridges) gave me...

At what are you 'self-taught?' 

I'm really not sure how to answer this one. I'm thinking I learned some things early on because my mother was an alcoholic and I often had to take care of things for myself. 

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

So today is my ankle clean out at the hospital. As I mentioned before, I hope I'm able to link this up.

Your prayers are always appreciated.

I was able to go over to Adam and Gabby's on Monday night and see James since I wasn't able to go over the weekend before. Made my day. ❤

WHAT I KNOW SO FAR

My ankle surgery is on again for Wednesday the 29th. It was approved even with the steroid shot. I don't know the time of day yet. I went for blood work on Friday which ended up being crazy too! They didn't have it on record. Thankfully I was able to call the woman who has been working on this and she was able to email it over to them. 

Hopefully all will go well and I will walk out of the hospital on my own. Of course they will wheel me outside first because that is what they do. I have been told I will be able to walk. 

The ankle will have its bandage wrapping on for a week and I will see him on May 8th where he will remove it. I bought a nice thing that is secure for showering without it getting wet. He will also put the new ankle boot on it before I leave the hospital. If I don't like it I am allowed to take it off. 

On Tuesday the day before I have the surgery I have an appointment with my dermatologist. I had seen him several weeks ago and there is a sore on my left arm, near the elbow, that needs to be scraped and sent in to check to see if it is cancerous. I haven't talked about this one before. The never ending health issues of Debby.
