Long time, no see

Old phrase from my childhood - haven't been here in a while. Had a minor surgery about 3 weeks ago, and can't bounce back from it very fast any more. I had another lumpectomy, pathology was ok, which is always a relief, since breast cancer took my mother's life.
Then to add insult to injury - had a root canal last Monday and they are always a pain - a real pain, not just a metaphoric one!!
But all are healing - they just put me behind on everything. Have decided I need a few things - a personal assistant - probably part time would be ok. A maid, house cleaning service - full time for a while - there is dust on everything, some carpet stains that need removal. A personal home repairman - hot water heater is dying - have to go to garage (down a flight of stairs) to turn on the hot water to take a shower, then back down to turn off the hot water. Go turn on to run dishwasher, then back down and up after turning it off - think you get the idea. Let's throw in the story at this point in time - my husband is a carpenter by profession............what's the story...the cobbler's kids had no shoes?? That is my situation. So I could keep a handy man busy for some time. Now the talk about all of this has gotten my blood pressure up so guess I will stop for now!! See you another day!
