    While my kitchen has been reorganized as much as you can with a 7' stone topped island for a hospital bed, we are both home and learning bit by bit to live with the new life we have. When I was in Newfoundland, others asked me if I was anxious to go home but I couldn't fully explain that neither of us have lived in this home - as it is now - and as our life is now. Today is my first day on "driving duty" to the first doctor's appointment. But it's all good, just new good! Below is our friend Kevin who drove Dick and his stuff home yesterdayand our cross the street neighbor Marilyn. #lookforthehelpers

    I do hope I can manage to do a lot of the monthly challenges with them before I jump into a Newfoundland book!
