This is very hard for me to admit but for the past few days I have actually missed my husband. I think the last time I missed him was when we were dating long distance, 23 years ago. Ever since we have been married I have continued to “play hard to get” as he…
Could she be the one?
I received a call this morning from the company who is supposed to be providing a caretaker for Tiara. They said they had someone for Tiara and would be sending her over at 2 p.m. today? Really, are you sure? I was just complaining to Lou this morning that I hadn’t heard from them in…
Does your neighbor like you?
I think I have mentioned before that one of our neighbor’s isn’t a big fan of ours and the feeling is mutual. We were friendly for the first few years after they moved in and then everything went to pot after a property dispute which almost ended in blows between Lou and “the guy.” After…
Why are my muscles sore?
I have woken up everyday for the past week with really sore muscles and yet I haven’t exercised all week. HMMMM, I guess it is my nonstop gardening, manhandling Tiara in her current ongoing horrible mood and pushing her 185+ body in the wheelchair across grassy soccer fields for 5 days. Talk about weight training,…
Who turned off the water?
So Wednesday morning early I heard a knock on the door and when I opened it, there was the water man. He gave me a piece of paper and said the water would be turned off for a half an hour today and from 9:30 until 1:00 I think, on Thursday. I thanked him, shut…
Where are they supposed to go?
First I want to thank everyone for all their kind comments regarding me continuing to blog. I have decided the benefits outweigh the negatives by a huge proportion so I plan on marching forward with a smile on my face. Thanks again for the encouragement, you know how to make a girl feel wanted. I…
Starting to question blogging
I haven’t been in the mood to write my blog much the past week and I think it is because I have been so involved in my garden. I have this habit of obsessing on something and giving it tons of effort and then abandoning the hobby and moving on to another project. My history…
A weekend without the computer or the hospital!
So you may have noticed I didn’t have a post on Monday, Memorial Day and that is because I decided to stay computer free Saturday and Sunday and just enjoy the weekend. I spent my time gardening! The great news is that Tiara made it through the weekend without a hospital visit. I took her…
Did I jinx myself?
So I may have jinxed myself after talking about how great Tiara has been doing this past week. Last night she was breathing funny during the night and kept tearing off her oxygen. I must have gotten up 4 times to put it back on, check her oxygen level and then feel her chest. She…
TT is almost totally back to her old self!
So the past few days Tiara has done a few things she hasn’t done since last year. The first I already mentioned yesterday, was our trip to the park on Tuesday. She walked all the way from the car, across the black top and played basketball for 30 minutes. I can’t even remember the last…
