Wednesday evening 9/27

It is 11:15 PM and I am wide awake as I was heading to upstate NY this evening and the person I was going with got sick and I have a broken toe on my right foot which makes driving interesting. I was refilling Betty's oxygen bottles on Monday and when I arrived at Dick's Home Care and opened the door of the van one of the small bottles rolled out and landed on the right foot breaking the little toe and bruising the toe next to it and about an inch above both on the arch. I did not know it was broken till today, I had a podiatrist appointment at the VA hospital in Altoona at 8:00 AM. When the Doctor saw it she said well go get it X ray ed, as I think there is a good possibility that it is broken and she was right.

Soak it in ice water and keep it wrapped in an Ace bandage an wear a special stiffed sole shoe that they gave me, to only use when I am not driving.

So I guess tomorrow I'll try and get the last 6 or 7 boxes of books from the front porch to the library, as the landlord finally has finished fixing the roof. Now he is working on a sewerage problem.

After the yard sale I put a bunch of stuff on the curb and most of it disappeared, I think the landlord took most of it as he works a flea market every Sunday, he mostly sells wallpaper borders but will put out about any thing he thinks he will get $0.50 or more for.

Well it is time to close.

Be safe out there and be well.

Bob
