postheadericon Gay Mar-15-13


We were up early and on the road at 7:30 am headed for church to continue helping with the yard sale. When we got there, there were already a lot of cars and they weren’t helpers. The sale wasn’t supposed to start until 8:00 am but all the early birds were there, in fact some were already leaving when we arrived. We went right to work as one container was still two thirds full. No one showed up yesterday afternoon to help set up. We had a little more help today but it still took us until 11:00 am to get everything out of the container. People were standing by the container doors waiting to see what we were bring out and some tried to get inside to look. Cheri continued going through bags of clothes, sorting and setting them on tables. I looked over at her and she was limping really bad, so I went and got one of our lawn chairs out of the truck so she could sit and sort. At noon there were still a lot of people there and it was to be done for the day at noon. Cheri and I left and she was having a very hard time walking. On the way home we stop at Subway for lunch just like yesterday. We also made a quick stop at Wal-Mart to fill the truck with fuel. When we got home Cheri iced down her knee and I took Grandma for her lab appointment. I told Cheri when I get back I am going to call Mike and Pam to see if they are home so I could go and fix their shower towel bar. When I got home I told Cheri that I needed to go to the emergency room as my elbow had a goose egg size bunch on it and hurt to bend it. I guess I did too much lifting yesterday and today. So at 1:30 pm we headed to Tampa, long story short, I didn’t see a doctor until a little after 5:00 pm. He drained the fluid and told me that it probably would fill up again. He said that he would make me an appointment with a surgeon. It was near 6:30 by the time we got home.
