hello...

another busy day for me...

2 walks this morning...

under my own steam...

then Craig and I hit the grocery store...

he pushed me while I pushed the cart...

it worked...

then home to get started in the home office/craft area on one side of the kitchen...

going through boxes, bags and shelves...

sorting what get kept, going to my booth or hitting the trash can...

was doing good until I pupt out...

the photos are from our yard and what we have blooming now...

well, part of what is blooming now...

it is cold today...

it finally just hit 58...

it's ok if this is going on...

but let a cloud roll by...

and it's down right nippy...

there's quite a bit of wind...

this is the biggest bloomer I have right now...

I used to have 13 beds of these...

down to 3...

what the flood didn't take...

I downsized...

I started out with a grocery sack of these from a friend...

iris are my favorite...

I wished they lasted all summer...

they used to use my iris for the flowers for the stage at graduation here...
we would cut and cut and cut...

and you couldn't tell there were any gone...

and then they would use my ferns, too, to go in with them...

I think I am going to have to thin out the ferns here a bit...

need another color in here...

it's all growing up so fast...

rain all weekend didn't get any yard work done...

next weekend looks like the same thing...

y'all have a great evening...

we're doing spaghetti...

and probably an early night...

gotta get Craig up to get some more done...

images...

You do not need God to live this life...

however...

 you do need Him if you want to live the next one...

I am so pupt...

first thing this morning we headed for Paris to the doctor...

in and out in 2 minutes...

the strep is gone...

but now I have thrush mouth...

a yeast infection from killing the strep...

yippee...

rinse with this med that taste like hand lotion 4x a day for the next 2 weeks and I should be right as rain...

so we drove up town and then back to the pharmacy just to see what's new...

cvs for meds...

and we went up each and every isle...

Walmart parking lot to check out the plants outside...

Mickey D's for breakfast to go and home...

then...

I had this idea...

we all head for Charleston...

grabbed the box for my booth...

took it all out and put it back and brought a box full home...

it is not great by any means...

have more work to do here and more to haul in...

then we went to the Dollar Tree...

yeah it was good...

started pouring while we were in there and got wet coming out...

then we stopped by to see Doug...

I was getting so tired by then and we didn't stay long...

it was my first time to his apartment...

he was happy...

I snagged a chocolate shake on the way home...

my whole mouth is as sore as my throat was before...

it is not fun eating...

but doc said a couple doses and I should be able to tell a big difference...

it's 54 and rain today...

so I have already got my shower...

nightie is on...

fuzzy slippers...

goofballs are napping...

they can't keep up with an old sick pathetic chick...

LOL

I am pupt...

P.U.P.T...

pooped!

a quick post before I head for bed...

some photos I took today while we were out and about...

the sore throat is strep for sure...

which is in my mouth and on my tongue now...

even though I feel better...

it looks terrible inside and totally raw now...

so I picked up the phone today and made an appointment for first thing in the morning...

so tomorrow should be fun...

and I am not really happy about having to go...

and I would say this is contagious...

so I will sit in the truck and wait at all the other stops...

we did not get any rain at all today...

but they are still calling for it tonight and the weekend...

but there are blooms everywhere here...

the trees are getting fuller...

there has been sunshine and clouds...

and just enough of a breeze...

but tomorrow's high is 58...

25 degrees cooler than it has been this week...

I know that's why so many are still sick around here...

we never know how to dress...

but the farmers have been going full speed...

and I would say most of the corn is in...

so off to gargle with my salt water and into bed...

wish me luck...

and don't forget to pray...
