Another Beautiful Fall Day



Mass this AM. The changing colors of the leaves is breath taking. Fun to run errands just to see Fall in action.

Hope you all get out and vote. Stay healthy, safe, and keep in touch.

Love,
Mom

More of Autumn


The boot has been off since Tuesday--slightly slower---but doing well and luving the freedom from extra restrictions. Great to get back to daily Mass and volunteering.

Still working on sprucing/cleaning up flower beds and getting ready to tuck them in for the winter months. Got my to-do list going---and anxious to get it all done. Lots of garage cleaning, organizing, sweeping...

"Boys" are all doing well. Rowdy is now on maintenance medication(s), receives laser treatments 2 time/week and holding his own. Wonder at times if  he really has an ailment or just enjoys the car rides/vet friends/laser and general attention. What ever---just luv these little guys.

Busy week ahead: Plan to play turkey Bingo tomorrow afternoon at St. Pat's. Two MD appts, Bible study, Johnson Garden Center ladies night open house, lunch w/friend....

Stay safe, healthy, and keep in touch.

Love, Mom

...and she will walk---unaided

Am so excited for Tuesday when I give the boot the "boot." Have been doing some trial steps (few) and feel confident I shall return to full force and get in step in no time. Have some walking sticks (thanks, Kat)and am looking forward to getting out and taking off w/them.

Next will get to the heart of the matter and make the matter move at a slow and easy pace. Have tried to remind myself--"just pace yourself." Am taking it to heart and hoping things will begin to even out and begin a nice steady pace.

Cool, crisp, clear morning---32 degrees. Met a friend and went shopping this AM. "Boys" are doing better and enjoying the cooler weather.

Take care, stay healthy, and keep in touch. Check out LJ's BLOG.

Free and "Footloose"



  • "Stepping out" this AM to run errands.
  • Anxious to resume some "normal" activities.
  • Nice be back on my feet and moving.
  • Walked out in the yard yesterday to get a close look at my flowers. Noticed lots of broadleaf  (dandelion type) weeds in yard/flower bed(s)---emphasis above on close look. )
  • And behold, my lawn service guy called this AM to tell me he was coming out today to put on the weed control application---Yea---he is even going to give my flower beds a tweek or two of spray.
  • All monitored up and even put the recording phone number on my cell phone in case I need to send info to "headquarters."
  • All is well.
Take care, stay safe/healthy, and keep in touch.

Love, Ma

Precious Boy



Still working on pic transfer----thought I would feature Spencer. Not thinking of trnsferring him----just in the pics. Isn't he just too cute?!

Weather is wonderful---cannot get enough of the outdoors. Going to spread mulched leaves tomorrow and get some major winterizing done. Do not want to bring in the deck cushions/dismantle deck yet. Plan to enjoy sitting/sunning/reading on the deck in October.

Stay healthy, safe, and keep in touch. (and if you luv Spencer---clap your hands!!!)

Just Wondering

Luving the cool weather. Took lots of pics but doing a new thing w/the pics files so will share at a later date.
Flowers are looking great. Getting ready to spread more mulched leaves. School volunteering winding down and making plans to settle inside come October. Wondering if we will have a Fall.

Stay healthy, safe, and keep in touch.

Love, Ma
