Dear So and So

[Blueberry]

Dear family:

The next person who starts a sentence with "I need you to..." is going to find out what I really think of you. "Could you," "would you" - those are both acceptable. What you need or think you need is irrelevant.

Dear self:

Deep breath. Remember why you're going at all (the family you actually want to see).

Mimi, I hope it works! You can have a Thanksgiving do-over when he's home.

Dear ER doctor-
Thank you for stitching up my DH's foot with such consideration for his running and cycling activities. I'm sure it helped that you are a cyclist and runner as well. We all agreed that functionality is much better than a pretty foot. (And DH, next time, take out the recycling with your shoes on).

*sidenote- only my DH is capable of stepping on to the glass without a cut, and then getting cut by wiping it onto the top of the other foot!

Dear DH- be happy you're only sidelined from your bike until Monday!! It could have been MUCH worse.

AZFiddle, glad your DH is fine now. I thought I read somewhere on here somebody else doing something similar to what he did. Maybe this is a cyclist thing? No matter, don't think he'll do that again.

Happy Thanksgiving

Maybe fine is too generous a word right now- the anaesthetic wore off and the ibuprofen hasn't kicked in yet

Mimi and Don/Catrin and your mom - you have all been through so much. It must feel like it's been going on forever. Sending prayers your way that the latest round of surgery has been successful, your family members will soon be home from the hospital.

Yep, that was me. I still have a livid purple stripe on my calf from that...

Dear Knee,
Would you stop hurting already? Dr.K fixed you last June. Why is it that when I'm on my feet a bunch you still hurt? But if I sit too long, you cramp up? What gives?

Please settle down.

I want to feel "normal" again. Thank you.

Dear black kitten near bike trail:

I hope you have a home to go to.

Dear muscle:
Stop it. You're making all the other muscles pick up your slack, so now my back hurts. Heal!

Dear Bach:
Why exactly did you write that many "Brandenburg Concertos"?
