Good Morning, just another workday for me. We are going to Bloomington to Morgans Fall Concert tonight. This starts the first of 4 this year, and a countdown to the last one in the spring. She will graduate in June. It really doesn't seem possible.

Have a great day and a better tomorrow.

Hugs,

Lisa

Hello everyone

I did the same thing yesterday and cleaned. I also made an apple cinnamon bread...it turned out really good for my first homemade bread. I also went to Target...I found a few things on clearance.

Today I went to church. The bread was for my church group. It was my turn to bring something.

Amanda's grandma is doing a tad bit better. She is still unconscious. When I visited on Sunday they told us that she was responsive to stimuli. But when we tickled her feet she was moving. I think she responded to us because she knew it was us. She responding to use through out the evening with increasing movement. We talked to her and laughed and tickled her feet and she moved. She has not opened her eyes yet. But the doctors said it will take time for her brain to heal itself from this and she is doing well.

For Sweetest Day Greg bought me my favorite cheesecake from Cheesecake Factory and roses. He drove all the way to Orland Park to get it on his day off Friday (while I was at work)...it took him 2 hours round trip. It was very nice and sweet.

Well enjoy the rest of your Sunday...over and out

Good Morning.

Yesterday I spent most of the day cleaning and doing carpets. I have one more room to do today, then the public part of the house will be fall cleaned, I will tackle the back of the house in the next few weeks.

Last night we drove down to Atlanta, Illinois, for dinner with Monica and Scott. Just a little store front place that has stood the test of time, Good food, and way to much of it.

Have a great day,

Hugs

Hello everyone

Well my Dr appointment was yesterday. I have to go in for CAT scan of my sinuses/ears. They want to have allergy tests done. I had the blood allergy test...but he wants to do the skin test. He said this is much better at telling what you are allergic to. And a hearing test. But of course all of this doesn't happen till December. He so booked up. He is just that good. He apparently is renowned in his field.

Amanda's grandma had to be put on a respirator because her oxygen levels are low...but we are told she is still doing well. I didn't sound well

This week I have been trying new recipes. I felt like I was falling into a rut and making the same old things for dinner. So far they have turning out well. Today I am making a garlic spaghetti with chicken.

Carla - hope you're doing well.

Time to get back to work. Have a great day

Crystal, I hope Amanda's Gram makes a full recovery.

Not to much to do today, I already changed the sheets, and washed and dried the ones that were on the bed.

No plans for this weekend. What is on your agenda?

Hugs

Oh Crystal I'm so sorry about your daughters Grandmother. Thoughts are with you.

I go into Evanston Hospital tomorrow afternoon to deal with this crazy mesh that is in my anastomoses. I am hoping that they can get it thru the endoscope. I'll be there for. Few days.

My Dr is Dr John Linn. He seems like he knows his stuff!!!

Hello everyone

having a somewhat busy day. Always good...makes the day go by faster.

Today I am making tacos for dinner. Yesterday I made this Chicken buffalo di**** was very spicy. But I was hoping that it would help my sinuses...it didn't

Amanda's grandma had a stroke that effected the left side of her body. Her arm and foot seems to be the most effected. Brenda said that she is doing better by the day. But she still has a feeding tube because she can't swallow. There will be a lot of rehab needed. Greg's sister is a Dr of psychology and I guess she had did some study in this area. She said the right side of the brain (because her left body was effected) would be the area that effects social skills and non verbal skills. So she may have some issues with this.

Anyway I a going to visit her tomorrow after my doctor appointment.

Nancy- I hope Rick is doing better.

Well time to get back to work.

Good Morning Ev1.

They are saying that there will be a frost on Friday night. :( I guess our warm fall will come to an end.

I think the only thing wrong with Tuesdays are that it isn't the middle of the week yet. So, the weekend is still far away.

What is happening in your world?

Hugs,

Lisa

Hello everyone

I woke this morning to some bad news. Brenda text me during the night to tell me the Amanda's grandma was air lifted to St Joe's hospital...she suffered a stroke (yes just like Rick...it must be something in the air). She didn't tell Amanda because she didn't want to ruin her birthday. I said let's not say nothing till we know the extent of the damage. It might not be that bad and we can tell her that...instead of worrying her. So we are waiting for all the tests to come in and for the nuerologist's report. I am so hoping it's not bad. I really don't want have to call Amanda and tell her bad news. I am also not going to tell her it happened on her birthday. I will tell her it happened after midnight. I do not want her to think this happened on her birthday.

Anyway...I will carry on my day like planned and wait for the afore mentioned prognosis.

I went to church today and went to my class. I have sort of homework to do. I have to come up with some ideas on some community service projects our group can do. Funny...my mind is a blank. Maybe I will google it.

Well time to get back to my Sunday...have a good day all

A beautiful day to get outside and do something. Even if it is just soaking up some sun. That is what I am going to do in a bit. I am putting some steaks on the grill for dinner.

Nancy, Hopfully you will be able to get Rick into the Vet Home there in LaSalle. It would be so more convinent for you. Have you looked into Lifeline for yourself. My friend Cheryl has it and it eases her mind if she happen to fall and has problems getting up.

I still have to pick up the kitchen. I made those 3 ingredient peanut butter cookies this morning, as well as a easy cheesecake. I want to also make some carmal corn. I am taking it to my daughters house as a treat in a couple of weeks, and I need to know how much it makes.

Have a great day!

Lisa
