Good morning. Jim saw the foot doctor yesterday and he wants to had a brace to his shoe to help stabilize his ankle. The fight with the shoe people begins again. Today is my dad's 88th birthday. He has had a rough year but he is still here with us and I am very blessed at my age to still have...

Good morning. I had the boys for school this morning so an early start. Sadly I did something I have never done before and lost my temper with Anthony. He's 16 and going through a lot with his knee but he has become incredibly bossy with his brothers and today tried bossing me around. He...

Good evening. This day is always going to be mixed emotions for me. 7 Years ago today my husband had his first stroke. However 18 years ago my grandson Mikey entered this world. I still can't believe 4 of my grandkids are now adults. He has been a blessing from day one. Mikey didn't talk...

Good evening all. Busy couple of days but glad for them. We had a covered dish at church yesterday. I always love when we can do that as it brings us closer as a congregational family. I made the macaroni and cheese I attempted on Easter before I sliced my thumb. This time I skipped the cheese...

Good evening all! This is a day where I really wanted to crawl back into bed and start over. My middle child has always been a laid back, nothing gets to me kind of person. She would have made a great flower child in the 60's. It was cute when she was a toddler but not so much now. Her...

I do the raffles for the teas at church too. The big hits are always my mom's handmade things. This year it's a crocheted blanket with Winnie the Pooh cross stitched in yarn. Other than that sports are big ones as I have a contact with the Phillies but most teams will contribute usually. More...

Good afternoon. Not going to be as warm here today, yesterday we hit about 82 by 2 PM according to my car. Right now it's in the 60's. Mother Nature is still on the Bipolar side. @bobbiwoz - Glad you are enjoying your trip. That meal looks so good but sadly I can never eat shrimp and scallops...

Good morning. it's in the low 40's right now but supposed to go into the 70's this afternoon. I like Aldi's but I go in there with no expectations. I did find the Marsala sauce from last year and got a few jars. I don't get meat there as I am weird about meat but I do like the produce usually...

I didn't get any pictures of my grandsons and I wish I did, but they were having more fun wrestling in the field than actually watching the eclipse. I think they got bored rather quickly. I did use the glasses on my phone and got a couple of decent pics. We had clouds moving in so I was happy...

Good afternoon. I am feeling better but the knee is still a tad swollen . The bump on the head is fine as long as I don't touch it. Day by day. I was not really excited about the eclipse. I am NOT the science person in my family. My youngest brother actually took his boys to Niagara Falls for...

Good evening everyone. Busy day today with laundry and a meeting for church at my mom's house. I volunteered to pick up one of the ladies attending as she would have had to use buses and it would have taken her over an hour to get there. By driving it took 15 minutes or so. The meeting was...

I'm in Philly and my whole house shook for a good 30-45 seconds. Never felt that before. My cats his and my dog started barking just before we felt it.

Good Morning I finally felt an earthquake, usually I sleep through them as they are never that big in my area. This one had my whole house shaking. It was quite an experience but thankfully no damage to the house and no injuries. We got the results from Jim's MRI and thankfully no structural...

Good morning. Oddity outside - the sun is shining. We have had rain since Sunday night. And I spoke to soon the clouds are back. Anthony's surgery went well and he is home resting. They cleaned out the knee and put in a bone graft in preparation for surgery 2 which will replace the ACL with a...

Happy Easter a day late. My trip to Disney was everything I hoped for as I really relaxed quite a bit. The crowds were very large but I managed. Then I came home to reality. My dad was sick, thankfully doing better and we all spent time with my parents yesterday and a true blessing my youngest...

So sorry for your loss but take solace in the fact that he know longer feels the pain in his earthly body and his spirit now lives on in all that knew and loved him.

Good morning. It was a busy week with Jim having 3 drs. appointments and getting ready for my trip. The good news is that we are moving ahead with the testing to see if he qualifies for the surgery to get him off of the blood thinners. The drs. are worried about him falling now too and the...

I went skiing with Girl Scouts when I was much younger. I got down the mountain once sitting on the skis. Figured I try again and fell off of the tow. You held on and it drug you up the mountain. Halfway up I hit a rut, the skis went in 2 different directions and down I went. It was a bit...

One day I might do that, but my husband is not up to that right now. Rather than argue with him, he will say he can do all the walking, I don't mention any side trips. We get in to Seattle at 7 PM the night before. It gives us a chance to unwind and Mikey and I the chance to walk to get...

Good afternoon everyone. In the 50's right now so a very pleasant day compared to the weekend with temps in the 40's. My dad came home on Friday and mom will not leave him alone. I can understand her apprehension but she will go insane if she stays in the house like that. Dad wants a birthday...
