Ain’t Nothing Like…..
...Lying on your back in the sunshine when it is cold outside and the temperature in the room isn’t exactly to your liking. That is the problem with a room with the ceiling 22 feet from the floor. But a flannel shirt or a sweater usually cures the problem for the humans here and a spot in the sunshine or curled up on Momma’s bed takes care of the furies!
Well the visit to the eye Doctor is taken care of and that leaves only Jay’s post op. visit to Webb to go. His arm is still working well and both hands are warm now .He seems to be gaining some stamina and he is going to need it soon.
My Mr. Flurry project is coming along with two large and four small ones done except for one scarf. I am about ready to send them out.
A glance outside at 11 pm, 2 am, and 7 am, told the story of warm and cold coming together. There was a heavy fog ( or mist) all night long and it is still there this morning. Brandy had both Jay and I up at different times of the night to go outside so we witness it first hand. Sure do love crawling out a nice warm bed to watch my dog pee in the wet grass. But hey pretty soon it will be to pee in the snow so this is a little better. In fact I think one legged people don’t go out in the middle of the night so it will be real nice for me.
I am trying to get some jam packed and out before I go in for the surgery but I have to think about paying the postman too so we will see how it goes. ( It seems I always say we and believe me I don’t have a mouse in my pocket so I don’t know why.)
I took a moment out on November eighth to remember my children’s father who past away 35 years ago. Many things have happened since then and most of them have been very good. I am fortunate to have a good husband, all my children alive and well, and grandchildren growing up to be beautiful people. You really can’t ask for more out of life.
Yesterday a trip to Sam’s Club and VG’s took care of some needed staples to carry us through the next couple of months. With Jay not driving and me not knowing how my driving ability is going to be I don’t want to be asking people to go to the store for me unless it is absolutely necessary. Although I have neighbors that would gladly help and children that will drive 80 some miles round trip to help also I want to keep that at a minimum.
Reading Grammie Pammie’s blog I see she is still knitting squares so I’m going to have to give her a hand soon. I think I’m going to have plenty to keep me off the street very soon.
Remember the lungs and the laughter!
