SHEs Organized

Hi everybody!

There is a life sized statue of Mother Teresa in Havana. She was so tiny.

Kathryn will be going through more states in one day than I have been in my entire life. (New York, Alaska and Florida.)

My brother called with an update this morning. Now I need to call my sister.

Sadie - i'm thrilled you have found insurance that looks promising!

Church this morning was very good. I enjoyed sitting with Kathryn and Ken, but most of all I enjoyed observing them interacting with my IRL friends before/during/after the service. I had wondered if it might be uncomfortable mixing the two worlds (internet & IRL friends) but it wasn't. Kathryn and Ken have the ability to visit with most anyone about any subject.

Something has caused LO eyes to be dilated (we first noticed it last night). I did a quick google research and saw that one of the possible causes is decongestants type drugs. So we quit giving LO any OTC meds for his cough/chest congestion. LO was most unhappy this morning when we made the decision on the way to church that he wasn't going to be able to attend. Once LO was exposed to the cool air (walking from house to vehicle), he started coughing uncontrollably. If LO remains still and quiet his coughing is reduced without medication so that is what we are attempting to do. Hopefully his dilated eyes will return to normal. If he doesn't show massive improvement by tomorrow, I will get him in to see doctor again just to make sure we aren't missing something.

Next up - Town hall meeting.

Football sunday here today has been the rest I needed. Got my current knitting project done.

No school tomorrow I might be having all three kids here tomorrow not sure yet; but rest just in case is good.

Had to move one nest box this morning that fell and broke one egg. Lunch is over.

Time to fold the last load of laundry and move a bit I did my 10 mi. on the ex. Bike this morning maybe time for a walk as well.

(LO ) my sniffles are better after cleaining drains with boilong water I found mold in one sink ack! So some allergies could have been in play.

Posting just a few lines to say hello. We're waiting for dfam#2 to come for dinner. It's been a few weeks since we've seen them all. Dh has prepped dinner and I have the table set.

OKay...this is a nice quote from Mother Teresa. I'm glad you and K & K have had a nice visit. Safe travels for them today!

Dee...glad you are getting better and I hope your dd gets better quickly.

Sadie...I'm glad you've found insurance for dh.

Nancy...your hens are looking good! Too bad about the one nest! I'm glad you're better.

BookSaver...your book sale sounds good. I wish I could have seen the aprons also. The snow lady one sounds cute.

Twins' Mom & Cathy...hope you are having a good Sunday.

Our dogs are liking the two giant beds my dcousin brought. They are much bigger than the smaller ones we have. They can stretch out fully and still not be half on-half off!

Thinking of Harriet and her dfamily, Blessed and her dfamily. Also all those in the Philippine Isl.

I am starting mushroom barley soup for supper here. Excellent meeting at temple - looks like we will be able to hire an educator thanks to my dh's (and others) fundraising. We stayed there for the lunch - egg salad sandwich, chips and an apple, and the concert was wonderful! This was a contemporary Jewish composer and artist.

Tomorrow I need to get dMoses to the vet at nine p.m. for bloodwork, then meet with the next temple president at noon to go over some stuff. This is a busy week with a lot blocked out Wednesday and later so I need to make the most of the time I do have free. We have a Torah scribe at the temple on Wed a.m. and I will be there 1/2 the day, on Thursday dMacs has PT, I am taking dmom to see a cousin and then to a dr appointment, and on Friday a.m. we are leaving for a long weekend in NM.

Sunny, my dd says the dogs have nicer beds than she does.

Lovely weather here I raked up leaves in the chickens yd for some ex. The fresh air is great.
Hens are happy grubbin' for worms or sunning themselves.
I opened up the coop still so happy that I have painted inside as it makes it so much brighter.

H. Is in the cave basement.

Would be nice - to "vac" fish tank and partial water change.

PS - It is lovely to hear of friendship time of OKay and K&K.

Good afternoon!
We’ve been to church, but otherwise, just recuperating from our overnight trip. We were both sooo sleepy this afternoon.

DH is doing rather large things with great love today.
WE ARE GOING TO SEE GEORGE STRAIT!!!
All this talk about the CMA’s the other day, etc. etc… hearing a friend talking about going to see him, etc. etc…. it’s his farewell concert… Well… I just couldn’t let it pass. DH kept saying, “Order the tickets… we spend that much easily on football tickets, for me, and you don’t get any enjoyment out of that.”
I was REALLY nervous – almost made myself sick – over ordering the tickets, b/c they were ridiculously high, AND the concert is not until MARCH 21… sooo… much anticipation/waiting… and y’all KNOW how I cannot stand that sort of thing. I told dh, after getting that Camaro from my dad and being so NOT a Camaro person anymore, I always fear that the anticipation is better than the reality, now, and I’m sorta terrified of getting what I want. Does that make any sense at all?
But dh said, “Well, LOTS of times, the anticipation of a ballgame is better the reality.”
So. I ordered the tickets.
(And obviously, I am pretty thrilled.)

Hope Dee, dd, and LO are feeling better soon!!!

WTG, helia’s dd, for speaking in front of such a large crowd!!!

Must wave to all and hurry away... got to follow dh to dmil's... return her van... go to Wmart... then have dgs over for sleepover!

LucyLee - George! YGG!

There was a small accident at my desk which has lead me to REALLY desire to have a waterproof planner. Surely someone makes one or there must be a way to create one myself. The soaked planner pages are now drying but the coffee stain will remain after they dry.

Cheese quesadilla + pineapple = super easy and tasty supper.
