I'm in SUPER shape!

My closest co-worker at Popejoy Hall, Linda, was to go into surgery Monday for a hip replacement. She just turned 54. Probably she deteriorated her hip when she took a long walk around Europe about a decade ago...she even wrote a (somewhat odd, disjointed) book about it that was published 3 years ago.

Oh, oh...but THEN what.

Last week, her 80ish mother took ill. The next day, her mother's sister was found unconscious in her bathroom and is in the hospital. And to top it off, yesterday, Linda's 68 year old husband fell off of a roof, breaking both his wrists and his L1 vertabrae.

Needless to say, her hip surgery is postponed indefinitely.

Geez, I feel so lucky to be me!
