My mom's been sick with ALS for a few years so I know it's hard to lose some of your mobility, and priceless to have good friends that are able to help when needed. I don't know how you do it without electricity and hot water in this condition, you're really strong.

I'm the opposite - always want a bath. But with the water running the whole time. <br /><br />And I remember the Saturday night baths. We took them in the kitchen behind the wood stove in a round wash tub. Bathtubs I can stretch out in are my luxury.

My brothers thought that meant I shouldn't mind getting in after they used all the hot. So I was almost always last of the three of us. Plus they would time their turns according to the TV schedule but I had no idea what was on when so I just went whenever they told me it was my turn. I still don't care what is on TV when.Linda Sandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12734450335251336493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-39149990134583891582013-02-02T21:21:41.987-06:002013-02-02T21:21:41.987-06:00Welcome home!

There's NOTHING like a good shower, especially after being without one for a while. I am so proud and in awe of you! You rock, Judy! One of the things on my bucket list is to actually hook up with you in person one day. Now don't overdo (yeah, right . . . ), pace yourself and enjoy!

You are back at the refuge and coming along smartly in your PT. congrats!<br />The lack of a hot shower is the one thing I miss a lot in boondocking. Too many bucket baths to save water and tank space. BUT that once a week shower is divine and the sacrifice to be out in the middle of NO where with NO one else is really worth it in my book. Not sure I'd think it worth it in your situation.Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00328866430156879312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-34671536472856010972013-02-01T22:53:14.406-06:002013-02-01T22:53:14.406-06:00Welcome back home, Judy.
