good morning...

another weekend bites the dust...
;o)

DH took Friday off and then worked Saturday...
the off on Sunday...


we did the smashy and the sonogram...
techs aren't supposed to tell you, but the words calcium deposit were spoken...
but I have to wait for a reading from the radiologist and then he will mail me a letter...
so should hear officially later in the week...

we got to shop without having to buy groceries...
and DH bought some things for him...
(which he never does)

Craig and I buy the stuff for him, because he is cheap and won't get it...
men...

so it was fun waiting on him to try on a pair of jeans...
and he got a pair...
and a belt...
which he got...
and he even picked out 2 shirts...
I tried to get him to get more...
but I was pushing it as it was anyway...
so we settled for that...
and he had gotten a new pair of tennis shoes on Monday...
so we are making progress with him...
(probably won't happen again)
;o)

we did nothing then this weekend...
just daily household things...
no tearing a room apart...
no home improvements...
;o)
just a quiet lazy Sunday...

hope you had a nice weekend...
just waiting for it to warm up back here...
should be nicer this afternoon...
we dodged all the bad weather...
no storms, a dab of rain...
cooler days...
but no snow...
;o)
I can do this!

starting the weekend off early...

just a note before the weekend...
had the mammo on Monday...

they called and there is something in the right breast...
my fibroids are in the left...

have to go back today for another mammo...
and I am scheduled for a sonogram for a lump on my shoulder...
which I have had for some time and we all think its a fatty tumor...
but getting it checked...

if all goes well...
me and DH are just spending the rest of the day shopping and eating out...
and not grocery shopping...
just fun shopping...
which we never seem to either have the time or the money for...

have a blessed weekend...
we are turning cold here and there are flurries in the forecast...
brrr time again...

happy hump day!

had a rough morning...

dang old fibro...

but doing better now!

here are some more weekend photos we got...

not much going on here today...

but I do need to try to start moving around here now that things have calmed down...

I grabbed these yesterday...
it was cloudy most of the day...

with a smidgen of rain here and there...

if we do get some rain, it will green up fast...

someone posted a neighbor on a mower about an hour ago...
mowing in Feb...

loving this warm weather...
and all the sun that comes through the windows...
makes your heart a bit lighter...
and you days a little better, I think...
enjoy these blessings...
my brother in law is doing awesome!!!!
just talked to him...
its been a roller coaster ride for him this winter...
but he is hanging in there and looking forward to getting up and around again...
they did have him walk about 50 foot today...
its a start!
have good days!

the good and the bad...

had a great 3 day weekend with the old man...

we have been in the 60s here...

we worked Saturday morning outside...

got a drive in on Sunday...

hauled off 3 garbage cans of leaves just in the front of the house and deck...

flowers are coming up...

this was full of leaves and left over fall things...

took the greenery off of the deer, too...

yesterday, I got my boobs smashed and started on a new injectable non insulin medication...
;o)
DH and I shopped at Walmart and Kroger...
stocked up for another month...
hopefully...

but the perfect weekend wasn't flawless...
DH's brother, the one who just got out of rehab...
fell and broke his hip...
they did surgery yesterday...
delayed until 5pm before they could get him in the OR...
and they ended up replacing the hip...
I am waiting to hear from them this morning on how his night went...
when our niece left him last night...
he was feeling no pain...
and the pain meds were working really good...
;o)
hope he was like that all night...
possibly a 3 day hospital stay and then back to rehab...
they getting to know him pretty good there...

have good days...
thanks for the prayers!

prayers...

I need your prayers today...
my brother in law fell this weekend...
and broke his hip...

surgery this afternoon...
had just been out of rehab a little more than a week...
he called from the ER yesterday right after lunch...

mammo this morning and we will be back after lunch...
I will try to get back in here and do another post then...

oh, what kind of trouble can I get into today?

its going to be another day like yesterday...

need to find the sunscreen and grab the flip flops again...

there's not a lot to do on the inside...

and not too much to do outside just yet...

so sunbathing just got moved to the top of the list...
;o)
I hear the daffodils are blooming in Texas already...
we aren't there yet...
but if this keeps up...
it won't be long!
be well, be happy, be blessed!

door open, fan blowing, flip flops are on...

we got 62 here today...

and I was outside in it!

I was looking for crocus...

didn't find any, but with this warm weather, they could pop up overnight...

went for a walk...

Lester loves the sun spot!

and we drug a bunny box out today...
Easter tree is up and working on that...

have a blessed weekend!

you know, there are some really cute st patty's day images...

got to keep them Irish happy...

cuz there's one out there among us....

watching every move we make...
so be warned...

oh brother, did I have a shaky late afternoon and evening...

I was late getting everything done yesterday...
so when I finally laid down for my nap, it was pretty late in the day...
I was hurting, but fine...
I got up so sick to my tummy...
I spent a lot of yesterday in bed...
either down flat or sitting up...
watching HGTV and crocheting...
sitting indian style helps my hips and lower back...
and I have no idea why...
but the bed is softer on the tail bone than the floor...
and easier to get up from...

whatever it was, has passed...
well, maybe not completely...
that shoe hasn't fallen yet, but could happen any time now...
so here I sit waiting to see what kind of a day its going to be...
;o)
I don't think parts of me are awake yet...

and don't criticize HGTV watching!
it sure beats watching all the protestors...
(how do they keep up on where to be and what signs to make?)
( are they given checks or paid in cash)
(do they pay taxes on that?)
and watching so much phoney news...
so I spent part of the day with Drew and Jonathan...
it wasn't too bad...
until later...
I thought it might be the flu...
but now think it was only the IBS...
sometimes you just cannot tell the difference...
;o)
so, hop along now...
enjoy your day and all the blessings you have coming your way!

I'm so confused...

is it spring???

is it winter???

the 10 day forecast says it could be spring...

we could see 70 on Monday...

just don't look at the 40s in the extended 15 day forecast...
that's too far away...
and they probably don't know what they are talking about anyway...

as for me and my peeps here...
(the four legged ones)
we are believers!
;o)

and don't go hollerin' at me for putting bunnies on here ALREADY!
I am up with the times, I will have you know...
and here are some images of the next holiday in line...
and NO!
I'm not jumping the gun...
I am simple planning ahead...
;o)

yeah, laugh...
I'm digging this crazy little world that I live in...
so keep the pins away from my bubble...
its my bubble!
;o)

have a fun and bright day...

come back later and I will have some more of the green images...
I have irish friends...
not mentioning any names, but they just aren't normal...
so trying to keep them happy here...
;o)
(if you know what I mean)

when the cat's away, the squirrels will play...er, raid...

got the nap thing down here...

they find the strangest places to nap...

and while they are dreaming of catnip and meeces...

shaggy is robbing us blind!

at least the squirrels are happy...
hitting the mother lode today...
guess who forgot to grease the hook?
;o)
I would be lying if I said I have been too busy...
its more like brain dead and lazy here...
;o)
ever have one of those days?
I am on week 3 here...
I blame it on who I live with...
duh dude syndrome is rubbing off...
;o)
have a fun day!
