Still, I will do well to focus on 3-minute increments… but at least the house is picked up and straightened up again, and it is quiet.
(((BIG HUGS))) for LO… you are right to keep him away from the chemo patients, though, LM… hope he feels better soon! And (((Mr. LM))) for kidney stone!
Hope Mr. Dee is doing better today following the endoscopy – and saying a prayer that biopsies show nothing serious! I wanted to hear from Mr. Dee especially today, b/c dmom told me today she has scheduled an endoscopy for Aug. 19. She thinks she has maybe a hiatal (sp?) hernia. Doctor did change her meds for Chron’s.
Oh, I see indy just had this done too! Hope you get your energy back soon and feel better!
Speaking of dmom, she was making preparations to attend her class reunion tonight, so I hope she enjoys that. I’m afraid her best friend is not going… and 2 of her other best friends have passed away. A fourth (the antique lady) was also in dmom’s close circle, and SHE is not going… partly she said, b/c it’s so sad to think of all the ones who are now missing. I think they said 13 had passed away at their 50th reunion, and besides the 2 ladies I mentioned, there are 2 men who have passed away, that they were probably very close to growing up. So that’s four out of dmom’s really close circle… but that’s part of the reason dmom DOES want to go – b/c she said, who knows when we’ll all get together again, and who we may lose before then?
I want to check the new cleaning thread… AS IF I were actually FOLLOWING ANY sort of cleaning thread??? * smh *
WTG, BookSaver, on the haircut and the donation to Locks of Love.
Need to follow Nancy outdoors and water plants… hope that cold sore goes away soon… my ddad used to have a problem with those. I’ve never really had one, I don’t think, but I know it seemed like it really bothered him when he’d get one.
(((Harmony)))
And (((Helia))) Sounds like you DO have a VERY annoying neighbor…
DOVE!!! Good to see you… and welcome to my world!!!
FF -- OH. MY. GOODNESS… The BURNING Game??? What will they come up with next??? I cannot even imagine being such a daredevil or so concerned w/peer pressure that I would try something that sounds so PAINFUL. Oh my goodness… So glad to hear Harriet’s dd’s friends are past this stage!!!My file box is dusty from not being opened, my combination To Do/On My Mind notebook is stuffed with post it notes & misc scraps of paper. I've been out of the house a lot, & dh often asks me to accompany him somewhere at the last minute. Unless I have already made plans with friends I usually go with him, since we enjoy spending time together.
Waving to Kathryn…Sunny… and anyone else who pops in later.
Probably should apologize for such a LONG post, but I feel like I haven’t been able to respond to ANYONE in so long, so I'm making up for lost time!
If y’all didn’t catch my quick posts from yesterday, everything is going well between dh & dbil… at least as well as could POSSIBLY be expected… and ddil came and got dgs today as soon as she got in from work. DS will be home late this evening, but then he will be gone all day again tomorrow. After that, they should have a couple of weeks when he is mostly home and things are more like “normal” for them. Thank you all sooo sooo much for helping me get some ideas on how to deal with both issues!
OH – today is dh’s birthday… my dmom called to wish him a happy birthday, but said she would get his gift to him maybe Sunday, b/c she just couldn’t get out here today. (He doesn’t know it, but she wants to bake him a cake, and she doesn’t have time to do that and get to her reunion too.) Also, ds called, and dbil told me when I went by his office that he wanted to come by on his way home and give dh his card/gift… so dh isn’t feeling forgotten at all. He was feeling a little sorry for himself w/ds out of town and his dmom gone, b/c she always made sure we did something special w/family for all birthdays. This is his first without her.
We’re going to Nashville tomorrow and spending the night, so that will be his celebration.
Y’all have a great day!
I have some 2 plyamd single ply to use with 2 ply yarn eventually. 
so I got jelly beans to share w/dh, too. I just about put myself into a low blood sugar attack before supper. Don't know if I'm confessing or warning y'all -- don't know if the sale is nationwide or not -- but beware, it's hard to convince yourself you don't really NEED to "save" that 98 Cents and go ahead and get two.
