...and now the eve is almost over -- at least for me. Soon I will ready for bed.

I went to work as a "super hero" today. I am help desk on Fridays. So I was Super Help Deskian, or Super Woman a.k.a. mild-mannered Clarkina Kent. I carried a bucket of treats with me, and everyone I passed or assisted was offered a treat. Made for a nice day.

After work, hubby came to pick me up and we drove over the river to spend the evening with our niece and great nephew. It was his first time to go trick or treating, and he was costumed as Iron Man. We got lucky - no rain! great-nephew was delighted by much, and scared by a little, and overwhelmingly happy to have a full pumpkin-bag of treats by the end of the night.

I ate more than I needed almost every day this week. It was satisfying, I do confess. Tomorrow, I'll weigh-in because Sunday afternoon hubby and I begin a mini-vacation out to the coast. I want to know if this has to be an ACTIVE vacation, or if I will feel comfortable relaxing.

Actually, I've just entered the third week of PT for my hip -- diagnosed with moderate osteoarthritis. The PT exercises can leave me sore and tender. I'm learning to supplement my diet better, and consenting to judicious use of NSAIDs for pain control.

Geez, this is a whole new world. I feel like I got hit up all at once. Peri, arthritis and BAM! I'm old! Not really, but my body is just shocked at all the changes and how many concessions there are to make if I am to feel and move normally.

<sigh>

Life is always change. Sometimes I forget to notice.

Okay, posting the work picture of the day, then logging off.

Peace y'all! -Otter
