Good morning, friends.
It is very early but this week has gone too quickly and I don´t much know about hours anymore.
I have gone out for errands with feet that walk better than before. I have had visitors and people who have come to see my house.
And I have started tocheck what I will need and what I will give away.
Better still, I have been with less leg pain and have been able to do all this with a smaile in my face.
Luna has behaved like a lady with the visitors and they have paid her with caresses that have awes me. She has accepted them moving her tail thankfully.
Something else has happened with Martín. He has come 3 times a week for my therapy but before he even greets me, he plays with Luna. And I have to be stern as she wants to follow him inside od the house. they both adore each other. 
On Saturday, Martin will come but not for therapy. He will cook a strogonoff and spend the afternoon with me.
How have you been, dear friends? I worry for your winters. I will now go to your posts.

Glad that you now walk better. That's a great improvement on your part. Just continue with your therapy and all will become so well for you. Well, we don't have winter here in the Philippines. We only have 2 seasons, dry season and rainy season. Haven't experienced any snow in all my life.

I first saw snow when I went to the US when I was 11. Before that, I saw the snow in the mountains.

Luna IS sweet. I bought her to have a watch dog, but I´m afraid she wont help me with burglars. But at least she barks like any big dog so I hope that helps.

I'm so happy the therapy is helping you walk easier and very glad Martin takes so much time with you and Luna.
Oh, YUM! Stroganoff is delicious! I'm sure Martin is a good cook and you'll both enjoy the meal together!
I am not doing as well as I could be but feel fine most of the time. We are having spring temps in my part of the US right now. We will have rain/thunderstorms this weekend but that's okay. I'd rather have rain than snow or ice any day of the week.

@marguicha Doctors keep finding new things wrong with me. I keep falling so they x-rayed my head a few days ago and found out I have too much cerebrospinal fluid building up in my brain and putting pressure in the wrong places... When I get to see a neurologist, they're supposed to take some fluid out of my spine and see it that makes it better... If it does make things better, they'll do brain surgery and put in a shunt (drain) that lets some of the extra fluid in my head drain down into my abdominal cavity where my body will reabsorb it.

@marguicha Thank you Dearheart. I will make a special effort to let you know anything new we find out.
Right now, my new appointment with the neurologist is set for September of this year. Pretty did ask them to call if somebody cancels an appointment for a day sooner than that. (I have been posting new discussions with any information they give me.)

Luna is a lovely dog. I am sorry that Martin does not have a garden or I would give her to him when I go to the senior home.

@JudyEv If I don´t find a good house for her, her vet told me that she would get her one.

I'm so glad you're walking better. Has there been serious interest in the house? I hope so. Luna is a sweet dog and deserves all the loving she can get. I hope you have a good dinner tomorrow. It is finally starting to warm up a little. I am hoping the snow and ice will melt.

What an uplifting post, you are feeling some better and having less pain. I am so glad! It does sound as if Martin and Luna enjoy each other’s company, and it’s good that she likes the visitors. And you can look forward to having stroganoff with your dear friend, that’s wonderful.
A lot of our snow has melted and the temperatures are not so brutal. I’m sure winter isn’t over yet, but it’s definitely a pleasant time, the roads are clear and we can see grass now,although the grass is brown,not green.

Here we are still in full summer. I´m sleeping on the bed, not in it. But I much prefer the summer heat than the winter cold. Take care.

I am not fond of extreme temperatures in either direction. However, in the winter you can add blankets and wear more clothes to get warm. In the summer you can only take off so much, and I truly hate being TOO hot. The happy medium temps are the best!

@MarieCoyle Í love spring best of course. But I don´t have central heating for winter and even the small gas heaters I use in winter mean a lot of extra money in gas. I think that in winter I spend as much money in extra gas as I spend in groceries for the month.

I’m glad to hear things are going well for you. My days are nice and sunny, but hopefully we’ll be getting rain soon. Some places in the United States still have snow, but we have no need for the heat or air conditioning right now in Oklahoma.

Where I live I never need AC. I have a small fan in my room but I have used it only once.

Luna has always accepted everyone. She is very friendly. And she seems to know that she must behave with older people.
