@151949 Haven't seen you here for a while, good to hear from you. Didn't realize (or perhaps I forgot) that you had a bad fall last year, I hope things are getting somewhat back to some normalacy for you. I hear you about all the rain, been raining a lot here through June & July. Take good care of yourself.

Thank you for your concern. Yes, it has taken a little over a year , but I'm pretty close to back to my baseline health. Thank Goodness. When the doctors said it would take a long time for it to heal I never imagined they meant a whole year. However, I consider myself lucky it wasn't much worse. I could have easily broken a hip or my skull.

@MarkeieMark Thank you. I've come a long way already. Water aerobics has been very good for getting me rehabbed.

I am trying to rehab from my bad fall down a flight of stairs last summer. What works best for me is water aerobics. I enrolled in an arthritis class at the Y where the pool is outside - as are most pools here in Fl. However, it is so stormy this summer I hardly get a complete class. Monday we barely got in the pool before the thunder started and we had to get out. Today about 30 min into a 60 min class we had to stop. It's been this way most of the summer. If I'm very lucky I get one complete class a week. It's frustrating to get all into a swimsuit, get all slathered up in sunscreen, walk all the way over to the Y - about 1/4 mile -just to not get in the workout - except for the walk over & back.
The Y's in our area have both indoor and outdoor pools.

Our Y in Pa has both as well, but the one here in Fl. has only outdoor.

I just posted that here in Northern Va it's been raining for so long ...... well....I think I found some green stuff growing between my toes (moss??).

I hate rain! I never went to school or work when it rained....really...that's how much I hated it! I just wanted to hibernate!

Right now it's pouring down raining! My phone went off (making this awful sound of alert) telling me areas are flooding!

I feel so sorry for the poor little animals! A tree (huge) just fell over next door to me. It's going to take at least a week to clean it up but at least it didn't fall on anything but the lawn. Came up right out of the ground...roots and all, just like someone cut a square around it!

My poor cat (Katie) is so afraid of thunder! Right now it's thundering and lightning like crazy!

So tired of the rain. My daughter visited from Denver this weekend. She loves rain, always has. She said she forgot how beautiful it is here where she was born (so green and beautiful trees and flowers), but she still loves Colorado (no chance of moving back home).

Anyway, I've stopped watching the weather, I don't want to hear about more rain every single morning and night!

@Annabellethecat66 When I woke up this morning there was a strange glow outside. It was the sun! ☀️☀️☀️They’re predicting that the weather should be more sunny than rainy today and tomorrow. I’m glad your neighbor’s tree didn’t do any damage. We’ve got a lot of big trees in our neighborhood, too. They’re always a concern when we get prolonged, soaking rain. On a glass half full note, our lawn has never looked greener!
