It has been raining here so much recently. We have already surpassed the normal year's total rainfall amount. Last month was the 2nd wettest month ever recorded for our city. This week, it has rained everyday, and the only work I have is outdoors, so I have lost the entire week because my client will not allow me to work in the rain. I have to replace several areas of cement sidewalks and parts of a parking lot, so I am hoping I can get back to it next week.
My best friend is having a tough week. He had his foot amputated on Tuesday because of diabetes related problems. I have had an injured foot since December when a heavy stack of lumber fell on it. I am seeing a podiatrist, and he hopes the foot will heal on it's own by using ice packs followed by a heating pad. He thinks this will enhance circulation, and then the body will heal itself. if this doesn't work, then he will think about surgery. I am limping around for the past 7 months, but at least I still have my feet.
