WOW! IT HAS BEEN MONTHS ...LITERALLY......SINCE I BLOGGED. I MANAGED TO GET A YEAR OLDER.....I HAD A NICE BIRTHDAY IN JUNE. I SPENT MOST OF JULY SICK WHICH INCLUDED TWO TRIPS TO THE ER AND I AM HAPPY TO SAY ALL THAT IS BEHIND ME NOW. 
IT HAS BEEN A QUIET SUMMER AT OUR HOUSE. WE PLANTED SOME VEGGIES IN BIG BUCKETS ON OUR PATIO AND HAVE BEEN ENJOYING TOMATOES, CUKES AND SQUASH. IT IS SO GREAT TO HAVE A TOMATOE THAT TASTES LIKE IT SHOULD AND NOT CARDBOARD.
OUR BIRDS HAVE BEEN A REAL SOURCE OF PLEASURE FOR ME WITH HUMMERS, CARDINALS, TITMICE, FINCHES AND SUCH. OUR DOG SASHA HAS MADE IT HER LIFE'S PURPOSE TO KEEP SQUIRRELS AWAY FROM THE FEEDERS. SHE TAKES HER JOB DESCRIPTION SERIOUSLY AND IS DOING A GREAT JOB. :Clap-Hands:
i DID MY FIRST BIT OF FLOWER GARDENING SINCE I STROKED AND HAVE ENJOYED CARING FOR WHAT THE PREVIOUS OWNER PLANTED. WE HAVE TO KEEP OUR EYES OPEN BECAUSE A FAMILY OF DEER LIVE IN THE WOODS AND FIND EVERTHING PLANTED AROUND THE CONDOS TASTY DELIGHTS. :licklips:
AS MANY OF YOU KNOW, MY SISTER GOT HER RN THIS MONTH....AT AGE 53. :thumbup: :doctor: I AM SO TOTALLY PROUD OF HER! SHE WAS BY MY SIDE FOR THE FIRST THREE MONTHS AFTER MY STROKE AND BECAUSE SHE WAS A LPN I GOT SPRUNG FROM REHAB EARLIER THAN EXPECTED. SHE DID ALL THE MAINTENANCE AND CHANGING OF MY PIK LINE. SO ANYHOW, SHE IS COMING OUT FOR A WEEK IN SEPTEMBER AND BRINGING MY MOM...WHO JUST TURNED 8O. THE PLAN IS TO DO GIRL STUFF LIKE FACIALS AND NAILS AND SHOP A BIT AND, MORE THAN LIKELY DRINK A FEW MARGARITAS! :cocktail: :cocktail: :cocktail: ( I WILL ONLY NEED TO SMELL ONE AND I WILL BE GIDDY.
THE OTHER BIG EVENT IS MY HUSBAND HAS A 2 WEEK TRIP PLANNED LATER IN SEPTEMBER AND I WILL BE ON MY OWN. I AM A BIT NERVOUS BUT I KNOW I CAN DO THIS....I JUST NEED TO PACE MYSELF AND ASK FOR HELP IF I NEED IT. I NEVER WOULD HAVE GUESSED I WOULD BE SO SANGUINE ABOUT STAYING BY MYSELF. :Nodding:
THAT IS ABOUT IT FOR ME. SEPTEMBER 16TH WILL MARK MY THIRD STROKE ANNIVERSARY. I KNOW SO MANY PEOPLE TOLD ME TIME WOULD HELP.....AND THEY WERE RIGHT. STROKE WAS NOT ON MY LIFE'S AGENDA AND YEP, IT SUCKS BIG TIME........I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE MY OLD LIFE BACK BUT I REALIZE THAT IS NOT IN THE CARDS, SO FOR THE MOST PART I FIND I AM CONTENT.
AND THAT IS IT........WISHING EVERYONE THE BEST. KATHY
