Grandad

Grandad fell on Wednesday 3/9 and broke his hip. He had surgery to replace the ball on Friday. He was up and sitting in a chair today, Sunday. They tend to make you move much faster than they used to. I guess they have found healing takes place better if you move. Nana is not going to be able to care for him for a while. He will go to a rehab place for a couple of weeks, maybe longer, depending on how well he does.

My sister, R. is also in town for a week. We are planning to get together on Wednesday evening which is also the day of the HOA meeting. Oh well, I am not on the board and I can miss one meeting.

All the plants are coming out with our 80 degree weather. Hopefully we did not lose the Acacia tree we planted last spring. It lost all the leaves and the branches look stiff. We have replaced most of the aloes with other cactus and are replanting baby ones that survived.
