And to add to this difficult day...

Ellen, my very caring and efficient aide, has been to the orthopedic doctor and now has a cast on her arm. She fractured her elbow and she will be unable to work, even with one arm, for two weeks

It's OK, honey! I'll just go roll in the snow when it next comes and eat a few more cookies.

[artykat]

And this is supposed to encourage me? dear me!

[anjea]

I'm sorry to hear that Ellen is out of commission for a bit, for both her sake and yours. I hope she heals soon!

I'm sure Bear will take wonderful care of you with a smile on his face and no ill feelings. You're so lucky!

[artykat]

I know, I feel bad for her. She says it doens't hurt much, but I suspect she has a very high pain threshold!

I'm not so sure about the smile, but he definitely will do it with love. I am indeed lucky, and blessed!

Hey K! He is working for cookies! Can't get much better than that.

[artykat]

Well, that's true... now that you mention it!

[realthog]

I wouldn't worry about Bear. He's British. He can take it.

[teacher_bear]

Dang! I thought I was a redneck from SW Virginia! Lol! But am I bovvered?

[realthog]

Well, we all know rednecks from SW Virginia can't take it when the going gets tough. But Brits . . .

[artykat]

You're right, Thog. I forgot about that.
