Thursday Roll Call

Hello everyone

I came home yesterday and all my flowers needed a drink badly.  I could have waited another hour because another hour the skies opened up and poured buckets on my flowers.  They look all perky now.  I was worried about over watering them because of the clay soil holds in moisture (at least that's what I read).  I checked them the day before and although the soil looked dry from the surface when I stuck my finger in the ground it felt a little moist.  So I was hesitant to water them.  I came home from work yesterday and they looked pathetic.  I was worried I went too far.  So note to self....don't worry so much about over watering...LOL. 

I would like to do more planting but I know Greg would like to slow down on the spending till after the honeymoon.  I guess two big trips, buying a car and moving into a house in one year is kind of tough on the wallet. So I will finish up with the mulch and clean things up and just let things be for this year.  

I have absolutely nothing going on the next couple of days.  I have to go to Walmart after work.  That's it.  So I will putz around the house and get things done I didn't get done when I was to sore to move. 

Well time to get going....have a good day.

 

Hi,

One thing about a garden, there is always next year to add things. The nursery that I use, for every $100. spent before 6/15, they give you $25 back on ather purchase of $50 or more. So, I am looking for 2 more bushes this summer, and they are $30 apeice, so, they will only cst me 35 for the two, I think that is right.

Baking cookies to take to Mn. tomorrow. Maple bacon, out of the package. I will ice them with maple frosting. A special treat for Morgan.

Have a good day, hope the rain moves out.

Hugs,

Hi and good afternoon everyone,

I did have my pre-op appointment today and my appointment with Dr. Manning. All went good at the pre-op appointment, the person I saw didn't need to take any blood work (had it done about two weeks or so ago with Dr. Kushner), no EKG, no urine sample. The person took my vitales signs (came out great), listen to my hear (came out great), and took my weight and it came to 211.2 pounds (95.8 kg) which means that I lost 2.2 pounds from 213.4 pounds.   My appointment with Dr. Manning went good too. He asked me a few questions about my left hip and I gave him the answers. He asked me How's the hip doing and how many days are you having pain during the week if any at all? and I told him it vary's each week about a two days a week. He told me if the pain gets to 4/5 days a week or more, let me know. if it's 3 to 4 days a week I can give a shot to deal with the pain.. The left hip replacement is on hold for now when until it gets to the point down the road at some point like 3 months, 6 months, or even a year or so from now once my left hip really acts up then I can let Dr. Manning know then I can get my surgery done on my left hip. At this point there's nothing to do with my hip at this point in time.   The only surgery that I have is next week June 19th for my hernia. I'll get a call the day before on June 18th to let me know what time to come in to the hospital for the surgery time.
