We are trying, anyway..to do it all. before Cory goes under the knife. Not much time left to squeeze in all the things we want to do before he incapacitated. I am already planning on what type of patient he will be. Hes already calling me Nurse Ratched. Monday is the big day! October 4th is when Cory will get his new knee. Chop, Chop. Be ready for some juicy, medical blogs following his surgical procedure. Hope we get an operative photo of his knee to go along with mine..makes for a good family collage. Fortunately, because Ive had my two knees replaced, Cory will be able to use many of my The walker is now his. Tons of ice packs that I used he can pile around his knee. Even my left over medication I will share with him. Hes all set. Of course, hes always a bit apprehensive when to me giving him medication. He loves to tell the time I was giving him an antibiotic only to find out it was left over pills I had given to our dog, Chip. It was the same antibiotic given to humans but Cory wasnt impressed that
the bottle was from the vet with Chips name on it. Maybe thats why Cory barks at me sometimes! Woof! Woof! Everyone..just get ready and be ready for the big day and hundreds of interesting and maybe challenging days to follow. Fortunately, I have Lulu to assist me. Shes limited as to how much she can do.you know why.but she has a good heart and willing way that will help us both to get through this.
Scratch the good, healthy eating, exercise and diet plan! We had to toss all that aside in order to our goals here. You cannot go to the Catfish Place (St.Cloud) and not order their fried shrimp! You just cant do it! They have the best fried shrimp in all the land..its to die for. And, oh brother, was it ever good. Just like we remembered. Yummers! Of course, my side dish was their cheesy grits..another yummers! Remember I started loving grits last year? They have the best!
Up on 192, across from Margaritaville, is a new restaurant called It a sports bistreaux. It specializes in Louisiana cooking. Cory ordered a ribeye poboy and I ordered a shrimp poboy. OMG. We
dropped to our knees while eating them. They were out of this world! Even better than what we had in New Orleans.Yup! And Im not exaggerating! On top of these delicacies, I had their corn grits! My mouth is still dancing from them. They are off the scale when to delicious grits. You have to try them! You just have to. Its good we were enjoying the food so much cause we couldnt talk..even if we wanted to. It was noisy in there. So many huge TVs and loud people chatter. Do not go here if you are looking for a relaxing evening out with subtle mood enhancing music and candlelight. It wont happen here!
We drove across the street to Margaritaville to see what was new there. They have several new restaurants and shops. I had to make one phone call in their outdoor phone both while there. No one was home, though. We are definitely going back to the Capones restaurant..HOMEMADE pasta! My saliva glands are rived up just thinking about it. We did have to get a scoop of homemade ice cream in one of the shops..oh, bring it on! See why we gave
Another fun day we spent at the movies. We saw the movie The Eyes Of Tammy Faye. It was a good movie. Jessica Chastain definitely should win an award for her portrayal of Tammy Faye. She was excellent! This time, I only brought our drinks in my pretend cooler pocketbook. Usually I load it up with various snacks, too. I was trying to limit our indulgences. We did wolf down a tasty bag of buttered popcorn, though. Shame, Shame.more weight gain! But.and hear me out. Before going to the movies, we went across the street to the huge outlet mall. We walked and walked through a portion of it to do our daily exercise. See .. we are kind of trying to do what we can to live a healthier life. Note the one photo I took. It was a stand at the mall selling a pizzaconic! Looked like a piece a pizza wrapped up as an ice cream cone.
