Something she could just nuke and fix one-handed. Or weeding her garden some for her while she's laid up. Asking her if you can pick up anything for her at the store or go with her to help carry. Watching a movie with her at home--just spending time hanging out, you know?<br />Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043285884495492598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-197597102880101691.post-71575277637172980822014-06-03T18:48:55.653-07:002014-06-03T18:48:55.653-07:00Your garden looks so beautiful; I know that you wi...Your garden looks so beautiful; I know that you will enjoy the fruits of the harvest as well as you have enjoyed tending to it. Both are much fun to me!<br />I'm so sorry to hear about your back problem. Do take care of you...and take care of your back. <br />Regarding what you can do for your friend who fell and hurt her arm and who can't do the things she loves to do now, sending cards or letters to her...even though you may live close...(I always enjoy getting "real" mail) :)....sharing some of the bounties from your garden, or just ask her what would make her happy for you to do for her or with her. Chances are, she'll tell you! You are a kind soul, Jan. I'm so glad we met through blogging.<br />Hugs,<br />JackieJackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214796594702277709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-197597102880101691.post-16868427331017212652014-06-03T12:09:07.504-07:002014-06-03T12:09:07.504-07:00Another year when you will take the last jump?

Do what makes you happy but be aware of the pitfalls. (No pun intended.)<br /><br />Your enthusiasm and happiness come off the page; it’s wonderful to read.<br />Still, take care.Frikohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04277167831642088694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-197597102880101691.post-47770352209111419262014-06-02T10:05:53.458-07:002014-06-02T10:05:53.458-07:00Dear DJan, I hope your skydiving was a delight yes...Dear DJan, I hope your skydiving was a delight yesterday and that one of those two packers was available to do that for you. It's so good to listen to our bodies and to realize what we need to do to help ourselves continue to feel healthy and vigorous.<br /><br />As to your friend Judy: if she really enjoys reading, the turning of pages may be difficult for her right now. So I'd suggest giving her an audio book. Fiction or nonfiction there are so many fine books and readers. I listen to a book as I walk and drive.

That ...I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. That truly is a bummer. As far as gifts go, I think it is always the thought that counts. I know that sounds trite, but perhaps a basket with some your fresh produce in it (If she can fix food.), a book of crossword puzzles, a light novel or two, and a small pillow upon which to rest her arm. Or just the pillow would be great. When I broke my elbow, I had one of those small, crushable microbead pillows that I placed under my arm for support. It was a God send during the day, in the car, and even at night. <br /><br />Sciatica pain is the worst! Keicha and I both have been suffering with it for week. Right now, I can barely walk. I'm going for an adjustment tomorrow. I hope you get to feeling better.
