I spent an hour changing the dressing on my wounds. The gashes and cuts are less bloody. I used about 30 regular sized Band-Aids on my legs then put gauze over that and then tape. If I go out I put Ace bandages over that mess so any bumps won’t be excruciating.

I extracted two more small pebbles from the palm of my hand. The guys the construction site had cut out the jutting metal from the sidewalk and filled some of the holes with chunks of cement. For this country, progress. I felt listened to. Maybe I’ll saunter on by and comment on their good work and suggest maybe, just maybe, they could fix the gaping whole in the middle of the sidewalk and tidy up a few other spots.

All in all, a good day. I’m considering a walk tomorrow. Got to get back up on that horse. Life keeps on-a-comin’.
