Got a call from my father yesterday evening. I thought it was to confirm lunch for Wednesday. I answered the phone with "Yep, we've got a date tomorrow." To which I heard "no we don't." My 90 year old dad..... who just two months ago: broke his hip- called to tell me he was in the emergency room at Lakewood Ranch. It seems that he wanted to surprise his girlfriend with a very cleaned and organized garage and in an attempt to reach that goal: he was trying to move his TREADMILL! His treadmill! It fell on him. It moved. But not where he had visualized.
When I got to the emergency room, I wagged my finger at him and said "What do you think you were doing, acting like an 85 year old!"
He got lots of meds.... and is supposed to relax and enjoy them.
I love the circle of life. Started my day with little "Pip-steps" of my 18 month old grandson..... and ended it up with my 90 year old dad. Life is just like that.
Happy Wednesday
