just another piddle fartin' day...

got up to thunder this morning...
and it was just that low rolling kind of thunder...
but nothing happened...

we got a few sprinkles and it just passed us by...
so out to water we went...

and I dead headed the lilies...
the tiger lilies are all done now...

but these day lilies are still going...

and its almost time to pick green beans again...
might just do that in the morning, if its not raining...
80% chance...

I see the surgeon again tomorrow afternoon...
for another boob job...
so took a down day today...

the rose of sharon are showing some color on the buds now...
should be open by the weekend...

I do want to thank everyone for all the prayers for Courtney and her family...
and the doctors...
He is still working in her...
not so long ago, they all thought she would be lucky to be here by Christmas time this year...
and God is proving them wrong over and over...

proof that I do do something around here...
even on piddle days...

I had the guys helping with clean up in the kitchen tonight after the pizzas went in the oven...
they informed me that our kitchen cook area isn't big enough for all our big butts to fit in it...
so, I left them to it, and sat down for a bit...
I don't think that's what they were hinting about, but hey...
I don't take hints...

there's one good thing about big flowers...
you only need one!

have you ever dropped a candle?
I did that all by myself...
;0)

did I mention that my old doctor is back?
the one that helped me so much and made sure I got the gall bladder out?
well, he is and I switched back to him...
need to call his nurse tomorrow and see if he wants to see me or if they can just call in a script for my test strips...
;0)
I am just thrilled to have him back and can't wait to see him again...
he also brought one of his nurses back with him...
Clint stayed with him and followed him to the clinic he went to...
they are a team, for sure...

we are stopping at the Curly Q tomorrow night on the way home for supper...
the guys favorite places to eat, but I like Burger King...
but I will suck it up for the team...
and get a foot long hot dog...
those are good, too...
and maybe some ice cream or a shake...
my favorite shake flavor is butterscotch...
and they make those...
or a hot fudge sundae to eat on the way home...
hmmmm...
its going to be a hard decision...
did someone say?
'why not do both?'
not sure who said that, but you're my kind of person!
;0)
have a fun day tomorrow!

UPDATE ON COURTNEY: FROM HER FACEBOOK PAGE THIS AFTERNOON!

'My prayer was i wouldnt need the surgery...prayer answered and miracle received!!!:-) The liver has responded very well we are adding a chemo drug that will cause a more rapid shrinkage but at this point since im responding well we are making surgery the last option so that we dont have to take out tumors we are just taking out lymph nodes.....God is good! Miracles happen and I am living proof!'

GOD IS SO GOOD!
He is still working on her and through her...
her testimony it awesome!
thank you for all your prayers!


praying for Courtney today...

this is my cousin's son, Kevin...
his wife Courtney and their kids...
Courtney is the one that I asked for prayers for a while back...
colon cancer...
here is what she posted last night...
So here it is Sunday night! Tomorrow is a BIG day! Please pray and wear your bracelets tomorrow! We believe the miracle has already been fulfilled and I guarantee you will hear me screaming from OSU tomorrow 
she has done all the chemo and junk you have to do when you have cancer cells in your body...
and all of it without one side effect...
and every time she goes in for lab work...
even before she started chemo...
the numbers kept getting better...
we believe that God has already healed her body...
that the cancer cells are no longer there...
that He has big plans for her...
that the anointing has been done...
and today...
the doctors will find out the power in the blood of Christ...
this family has so much faith in Him...
