catching up...

the beginning of the snowstorm...
which is what we should have gotten, but there ended up being a little bit more...
fall has been interrupted...

so I stay in and clean, cook and watch the birds...

its warmer today and the snow is melting...
we can see the grass in some areas, under the leaves...
which we didn't get to...
we have to shovel the yard before we can rake it...
the guys said no way...
I am not sure why...

have a good day

arctic blast and all that rot...

we got 3 1/2 inches of snow on top of ice...
and its still out there...
BIG UGH
but, I am warm inside...
so just to get caught up with you all...

I did the meds and am much better...
its not completely gone...
still a bit of a cough...
but major difference...
loved being on the steroids...
I felt "normal"...
no fibro...
had energy...
but it didn't last...
oh, well...
I did get a lot of cleaning done...
:O)
DH had some longs days...
but he has come home at normal time the last 2 days and its wonderful to have him back...
he has been working on getting everything ready to retire at the end of June...
"next winter, when the snows come, I will be sitting here(kitchen table) in my jammies and a cup of coffee and watch it happen"
he is so ready...

the babies have been a handful and will be ready to go this weekend...
yay for them and us!
and this weekend we start setting up the toy drive...

SO...
life has been happening around here...
and I will get some photos soon and get those posted...
have good days!

it doesn't look much like fall...

most things are still green, just a little dry...

but the walnuts are everywhere...

and if you look at the very top, things are happening there...

got this on an online garage sale from a girl Craig went to school with...
its a scentsy wax melt thingy...

and from a friend...
they are so good...

I am not feeling good today...
think I have a cold and not allergies...
just moving slower than my slow...
Craig made two pots of chili this morning...
one for them and one for me...
I don't like hot chili...
mine is really mild...
DH is working noon- 5 today...
Sunday's are shorter hours unless they have to load cars or run the dryer...
which they didn't have to do this morning...
its 71 out and I have only been out there about 10 minutes...
just not feeling like it...
think its time to see the NP...

have good days!

a total cat day here...

the new babies...
about 4 weeks old...
got about 4 to go...

my Annie...

Mr Wiggles...

can't fix the couch...
squatters are everywhere...
they love the sun spot...

both guys are working today and  its beautiful outside...
stuck in here with them...
could be worse...
they could be awake...

Craig is off tomorrow, so hoping to get out and do something out there...

Craig won concert tickets from one of the radio stations here...
he got 2 tickets for George Thorogood on Wed night...
and 2 tickets for Kansas last night...
he took his dad both nights...
they had a really good time both nights...
but old DH was dragging Thurs and not sure how he is doing today...
LOL
it was only 45 minutes north of here, so not a long way to go...

Craig is doing really great on the CPAP machine...
he is so rested and his energy level is increasing daily...
its just amazing...
he looks 10 years younger!
I am so glad he finally got into the doctor's office and got things started on getting to here...
he has another sleep study to do on the 29th and they will adjust the levels on the machine to where it is perfect for him...

fall is finally happening here...
a few leaves turning now...
harvest is still going...
DH is working some overtime, but that just started...
they haven't had much hauled in yet, but have 3 farmers bringing in today...
he will get off at 6 and work half a day tomorrow...
his next day off will be Friday...
they are on a rotation of 13 days on, 1 off during harvest...
its going to be a long harvest this year...
slow to plant and slow to harvest...
and depending on how the rains come from here on out, will determine how long it takes...
some of the corn and beans still aren't ready to come out...
we shall see...
they are cutting beans like crazy...
they have to come out before the frost or they lose them...
you can pick corn in a snow storm...

hope your days are good and  you are enjoying this season...
