Thanks!


Thanks for that, too. He had his first spinal surgery yesterday, with another to come soon. Hopefully, he can regain sensation in his arms & hands. He still has a long way to go.

Continued prayers for him, Brad~

Still praying for your friend!

Very glad to hear that your dad is on the mend and under the care of Drs. Howard, Howard, and Fine!

They are the best doctors around! A few years ago I was real sick and had high fever and there was a Three Stooges marathon on that day. I kept it on that station all day long. It was very helpful in keeping my spirits up! =)

She is hanging in, thanks. Doing better, still having pain but that's to be expected for a bit. She has her knee brace off, and is walking without a cane. Slowly, but surely!

Thanks again, HmG!

Thanks, buddy!!!! I've got the dishes done and laundry going. Now I'm just trying to clean up some of this mess. Hopefully I can kick back and relax here in a couple of hours.

Don't ever worry about dragging us down. How are we going to get the prayers out if we don't know? cheesy

We're here for each other!

Perfectly said, Brad!!!!!

It's one of those Friday afternoons
when you look at the clock around 3:20
and find out it's only 2:08.

:-?

Oh boy, don't I know it... I'm here for awhile yet tonight, to help make up some of the time that I missed this week....

Good morning!
We are expecting lots of rain over the next few days and the temperatures will only be in the mid 50's. I'm hoping the rain will be out of here for Mother's Day on Sunday.
My husband opened up the pool a couple of days ago and now the girls are excited for summer. It's going to take him a few days to get the water crystal clear but it's so nice to look outside and see water instead of that ugly pool cover!
Not too much going on for me today. I'll just be working on some chores around the house and I have a few phone calls to make. I'll probably start working on a menu plan and grocery list for next week. Maybe since it's a rainy day I'll take the time to look up some new recipes.
I hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!!!

If you aren't on Pinterest, you need to be. DH and I have found so many recipes on there.

(Made, you can quit laughing now!!!) He thinks I spend too much time on there!

Merry Morning! I hope everyone is well, it is difficult to keep up these days

The skies have opened up again here. Heavy rain is back. My gardens are saturated and pools of water everywhere. Atleast we had a bit of a break recently. It is predicted to go on for a few days so raincoats and wellies for us!

I made some good progress with my work yesterday so I will be continuing with that today. I just finished dusting, vacuuming and mopping floors so I figured I deserve a coffee break before I start

I hope your day goes the way you want it, have a good one!

Cheers!

Hope the rain lets up soon, Festive.

Hey there! Just checking in. Been really pre-occupied with the house renovations and also in my spare time work.... Well, things (of course), did not go as well as expected. The walls were opened up and behold.... carpenter ants, wood rot and mold! Nice!!!! The ants had eaten thru the 2x6 studs, sub-flooring, plywood, king studs, jack studs, headers, etc... it was a mess. So, I called exterminators, they sprayed for hours...

Then my GC called for some more help from his contacts, I had 3 carpenters and 4 masons, 2 alarm guys, all working at the house this week. I'm going to get clobbered with a big change order... However, they have been moving along really fast, the exterior of the house has been put back together and the new windows installed and vinyl siding went up yesterday. I did all the electrical work myself. The masons have finished up their work and have left. They are putting in exterior doors today and next week, they should have the drywall work all done on the inside and the stone work on the exterior should be wrapped up as well.

I'm not sad, a little bummed; yes, but not sad. I sort of look at this way, it's better to find out things now, get them fixed and move on and not dwell on things...tomorrows another day! And then after everything is fixed, I should not ever have to worry about those things ever again~ I'm trying to look at things in life as an optimist instead of having a pessimistic point of view of things!!!!

No work scheduled on the house this weekend other that what I, myself may get into from the honey-do list! Well, better get back to work: talk to you in a bit!

Sorry to hear that you ran into those hiccups, friend.

You have a great attitude, though! Tomorrow's another day! I, too, am a glass half full kind of person =]

Hope the rest of your day goes well, and that you have a fabulous weekend!!

Thank you SF~

It, of course, was a very an unexpected find, but however it's fixed now.

I have felt like a whole different person ever since I started taking that position in life, trying (and yes, it hard at times) looking at everything as though the glass is half full instead of half empty....

I hope you have a wonderful weekend as well~

Stay warm and dry and may the sun shine on you always....:-D
