Remi came over this morning and put all the baseboards on...the project is now finished except for getting some paintable wood filler to fill in the nail holes on the baseboards. It looks terrific and Remi did an awesome job!
Katie and I finally made it to the driving range, I was having a few problems at first until I remembered some of the keys to hitting well from last fall. Katie didn't seem to have the same problems, she didn't play all last year because of her back problems, but was hitting the ball really well.
The golf certificate that our renter Steve pointed us to for $250 for 15 games with an expiry date of March 21st...turned out to be a great thing. We exchanged that at the pro shop for a punch card for 25 games with no expiry date for no extra money. What a good thing...now the pressure is off to get a certain number of games in by a certain time...if we don't use them all this year, we can use them next year.
We saw our friend Ron at the range, haven't seem him for a couple of years, so it was great to see him.
Being on my feet for 3 days turned out to be a bad thing for me. I had a previous episode of Plantar fasciitis...a painful inflammatory process of the plantar fascia. Longstanding cases of plantar fasciitis often demonstrate more degenerative changes than inflammatory changes, in which case they are termed plantar fasciosis.[1] The plantar fascia is a thick fibrous band of connective tissue originating on the bottom surface of the calcaneus (heel bone) and extending along the sole of the foot towards the five toes. It has been reported that plantar fasciitis occurs in two million Americans a year and 10% of the population over a lifetime.[2] It is commonly associated with long periods of weight bearing.
In the previous episode I got inserts for my runners and after a short time I was back to normal. I made the mistake of wearing my comfortable Crocs for 3 days when I should have been wearing my runners with the inserts and I probably would have been fine. I could hardly move at all last night...with my feet and legs being extremely painful. Even a session in the hot tub didn't help. I took an anti-inflammatory and this morning, although not fully recovered, feel a lot better than last night. The pain actually makes you feel like you are about 90 years old.
Spent a bit of time in the afternoon with Terry and Arlene, and got a change to see their new furniture....nice!.
We're going to take it easy today for a change, we have been constantly on the go since last Friday, what with driving for 3 days, running around getting groceries and supplies, and doing the floor.
Must hit the driving range again though as we are supposed to play golf tomorrow with Lorraine and Raymond who we have played golf with in the past.
more later....
