Windy

It's been blustery today, really since last night. We were out at an appointment this morning, talking to someone who wanted to meet her husband up at Beaver Creek, but it didn't look like she was going to be able to get there. Apparently the I-70 corridor to the ski areas has pretty much been shut down for some time, because of harsh windy conditions - blowing cars off the road, that kind of stuff. K's visiting nurse just left, talking about moving to Texas. With her job, she's out in the weather all the time, so it affects her far more than most people. The nurse said K's foot is healing pretty well, but they're watching a new crack that's developed on the bottom of her foot since last week's surgery.

K learned yesterday, about an opening at the Littleton dialysis center, which is only 10 minutes away, instead of 30. The time slot was at 5:45 AM MWF, which gave us pause, but then we decided to go for it. We were even beginning to look forward to the change to our daily schedule that it would bring. By the time we got down to the center to talk to them this morning, they'd given that slot away, and instead had an 11-3 MWF slot to offer. Even though that takes a big bite out of the most useful part of the day, leaving little time for other medical appointments, we think it's worth the trouble, at least for now. We're hoping they'll have a 6:30 AM slot available soon.
