New Grandbaby Coming Thanksgiving

Yep, Grandbaby number three will be here in November.  Yippie!
 
This brings to mind how important it is to get and then remain healthy.  I'm still shopping for a bicycle  to ride this summer while my oldest grandchild spends a couple weeks with us.  At only 5 feet, I'm challenged by the lovely tall "adult" sized bikes and am not real excited about getting a strawberry shortcake sized bike.  All kidding aside, have you folks out in cyber land priced a bike lately?  Holy Cow!

Only two more weeks, and I get my thumb cast off.  That will be wonderful.  I had no idea how dependent I was on my dominant hand nor how important the thumb is to my activities of daily living.  How incredibly difficult it is to manage ordinary actions minus the use of the thumb.  Also, my "other" hand and arm are tired.

Next week, labs then I'll begin the gradual changeover from everyday ordinary American diet to healthier more vegetarian oriented whole and green diet.  I am seriously hoping the change will be easy and that my family will cooperate.  I have in the interim been preparing a whole and green dish once a week or so as a side to the usual foods eaten here.  Hopefully, the gradual removal of such things as pizza, chips, etc. can be accomplished with a minimum of withdrawal symptoms.

Let me know how you, the cyber public have experienced personal and family dietary changes.
