Yep, that's great news Liz!  This old age thing sucks...

Last Friday morning, I met up with the old timers I worked with at Home Depot for breakfast.  I was telling them about how great I had been feeling and my up-comming treatment appointment.

Later that day, one of the bikes fell on me in the garage and I've been all screwed up for the last week.  Could hardly get in and out of bed.  I'm thinking I'll be all better in another week.

The worst thing, at least I think it's the worst thing, is how I've got all these plans, and I just keep getting further and further behind because of little health problems cropping up.

I may have already waited too dam long to do some of the things I had planned.  I'm hoping that's not the case, I guess time will tell.

Thanks, Willie.

That's good news, Liz. Most people hate to be in the hospital. Just take it easy when you get home and don't hesitate to rely on your neighbors when you need help. I'm sure that you would be there for them in their time of need. Wishing you get well soon.

They're throwing me out of this joint tomorrow or Friday.  I was determined to get out of here in less than 2 weeks and I will!  Personally, I don't think I'm quite ready, living alone and all, but Humana says I'm ready so that means I am.  My nieghtbors have offered to help me when I need help so I'll manage.

I have used it.  It is supposed to rain here, sure hope it does soon, things are getting very dry.  Every day now I think may be the last for my cat Lucy, she is very thin and is doing her business outside the litterbox now. Had to throw out a rug today.  And replaced it with towels I can wash.  She is deaf and blind now.  But still eating and drinking and doesn't seem to be in pain.  But so hard on me.  You all know how it goes.  I will call Liz tonight and see how she is doing and let you know.

Barb, Lucy sounds like Kobe only he can see. I thought I was going to take him to the vet this morning but after his morning nap he bounced into the room wanting to play.  Good luck to you and Lucy and to me and Kobe.

Good afternoon everyone. After a few cloudy and rainy days the sun is back out and the temp is at about 75 degrees. If it would stay like this I would be happy but the heat will be back for a couple of days starting tomorrow.

I'm still trying to get this house back in order after the floor install. It should have been done by now but between taking care of Kobe and the fish the days fly by quickly. I was supposed to have company this weekend but they canceled so that will give me more time to procrastinate. I'll get it done soon.

Liz, are you still in the hospital? Hopefully they patched you up good and that you will be able to get through therapy with as little stress as possible. Get well soon.
 

Good afternoon everyone. All is good here. Ron, those wasp are a pain in the butt. I got stuff to get rid of yellow jackets but I think what I have are paper wasp. I never heard of those but they look just like yellow jackets here. I have to get another type of trap. 

Well, hello muggers!

Miss Lucy and I went to Sedona with another couple Friday and got back about a couple hours ago today. Had a great time, walked through the downtown "commercial" area. Drove around to see all the wonderful red rock structures, and took a train ride through Verde Canyon, which is the second largest Canyon in Arizona next to the Grand Canyon. It was their anniversary and we were really happy to be able to provide the rooms for them and us with our Hilton Grand Vacations program. We wouldn't hesitate to travel with them again.

Got home and all the fish are in good shape and in a few minutes I'm going to go around and feed them all.

I hope all of you are doing well. How did it go with the Aquarium this month, Barb? Willie did you take care of the wasps? Liz, how are you progressing? And Dennis, are you out on your bike these days? Hope to see all of you here soon. Bye-bye for now.

Hi folks, while I wait for the Kentucky Derby to run, I will post here.  The triple crown races are the only horse racing interests for me.  My mom always really enjoyed them. BTW, May 14 would have been her 100th birthday, she missed it by just a year and a half.  I will watch it for her. 

Today was my once-a-month day at the aquarium at the beach. As usual it was very busy!  When I got home I worked outside for a bit, whacking weeds, til the battery ran out.  Willie, good plan on the tanks.  I know you will still have plenty of water and fish in glass boxes!  Liz how are you doing?  Still in hosp?  Ron and Dennis what is going on for you?  More soon from me,
Barb
