out with the old, in with the new...

on the way home from the doctor, we swung by the old high school here...

they started the demo on Monday...
the flag is at half mask...

working on the top floor...
the new high school is in the right back ground of the photo...
this was not MY high school...
but it still took my breath away with the first glimpse...
it has always been here for me...
I can't imagine what it feels like for her alumni...

well, good news and bad news from the doctor...
I do have bronchitis...
he gave me amoxicillin for that...
should start feeling better in a day or two....

now the good news...
I am in the perfect range for my blood sugar and the weight loss was impressive...
he is very happy with my progress...
told me I was doing a good job and that I must be lactose intolerant...
I am to keep doing what I have been doing...
yeah!

I need to go back for a blood test for the diabetes, but I need to fast so couldn't do it this morning...
stopped at Burger King on the way home...
and had a whopper for lunch...
tried to take a nap, but couldn't sleep...
so here I am...

DH brought me home and we all did lunch, then grabbed the list and headed back over there to get the shopping done...
the car ride over made me sick to my tummy, so he brought me home so he could take his time and all that...
so just sitting here waiting on him to get back home...


praying for rain...

good morning...

its a good morning on the deck...

but we need some rain...

the yard is so dry...

so we are praying for rain...

the new weather forecasts show a chance tomorrow, but took it out for the weekend...

and even thought the sunshine is pretty...
we would like to sit out here and just watch it rain...

now, yesterday, we tore all of this out...

put the black cloth down and put it all back again...

the guys did 99.9% of the work...
but someone had to tell them how to do it...
I did 100% of that...
they have tried to fire me...
but I won't leave...
squatting rights...

the yard hasn't been mowed in almost 2 weeks now...
and except for the weeds, it could go another week...

got to head for the doctor in an hour...
maybe pick up a boston fern...
and of course, a whopper...
well, need to find some caffeine to get me going...
later...
