Tom drew up a bath for me and helped me upstairs. My bath was wonderful. Sitting in the tub is relatively pain-free, and no fear of slipping and falling. I did not need help washing, just getting in and out. Another step of independence regained And I got to shave my legs, which was much overdue. Now I am relaxing on the recliner feeling wonderfully clean and content.

I might go to a bird talk at the local outdoor shop tomorrow. My friend Karin-Anne will be taking me if her plans work out. The talk is by Jonathan Alderfer, a writer and illustrator of birding guides by National Geographic.
