Hi Azure,

Yeah, I'm very relieved over avoiding surgery and am starting to walk on the leg a little more and more every day. I'm now working on getting a temporary handicap parking permit from the doctor so I can drive to and from
work. I took the bus yesterday and it was really tough. It's too far of a walk at both ends and the bus lurches and brakes too much. By the time I got to work I was sweaty and cranky -- not a good way to start the
day.

[Friends] wedding sounds very nice. Was it painful or weird for you? I could see how it would be.

At some point it might be good for us to talk again about a few things.
Please forgive me if I am introducing this the wrong way, but I would love to have you come by my place for a visit, but as you know I'm seeing someone and wouldn't want the presence of some of her stuff in the apartment to upset you. She (Margaret) would really like to meet
you but I would respect your decision to want to delay some of that for
now ...

Ugh, am I digging myself into a hole, or are you open to discussing this more? It seems that not mentioning this issue is kind of avaoiding the elephant in the closet, but I also want to be sensitive to your feelings.
