Fuzzy Math — Six Word Saturday — My Operation # 02

My six words:

She: None Is Better Than One
This really isn't fuzzy math. No bell seemed to be better than one bell according to Mrs. Jim.

Mrs. Jim has been my buddy during my recovery for the left knee total replacement that I am going through.

Because our house is spread out and for sure when I was in the bedroom NEEDING HER HELP and she was in the kitchen or some other room she had a hard time hearing me call.

So I found this little bell to ring whenever I needed her. This system really worked quite well.

But now that I am fairly mobile with using my cane there isn't much more need to call her with the bell. I can just go get her instead when she cannot hear my gentle call.



Next six word set:
One leg is better than four
This is because I don't really need my walker in the house anymore. My physical therapist rehab coordinator has now allowed me to use the cane (one leg) instead of the (four legged) walker when in our own home.

I am hoping that next Monday it will be 'use a cane any place' time and I can put the walker up.


The final six words:

Two-year-old birthday girls smile really nice

We missed a bunch of birthdays this year so we made up for lost time when the London bunch got here.

This is BP. Her birthday was July 16 but she didn't get to us until July 19. Karen's (
her blog ) birthday was July 19 but she didn't get to us until July 23.
Billy's birthday was February 26 but we couldn't get him his present, these TaylorMade Penta golf balls, until July 19 when they came to us.

  5. Gorgeous pic of the birthday girl and gruesome pic of your knee - that looks really bad, as in really painful.

    Glad you're getting around better now.

  6. Glad you need only one leg now, Jim, although your knee looks like it's been through several wars--seriously! :-)

  7. As they say here "bon rétablissement" meaning "back to normal ASAP" or words to that effect. Thanks for the updates.

  13. Hello Jim ~~ The bell was a good idea
    and I used to have one whenever my kids were sick. Your leg looks so much better - I liked how you were recovering s l o w l y. But I think you have done well with the walking.
    I still have to use walker outside.
    Thanks for the Biblical jokes. And a belated birthday wish to all the clan. I am sure they were happy to see you doing so well. Take care my friend and do be careful. Regards, Merle.
