Happy Monday,
It seems that all of us are busy with our life. That is a good thing.
All I am doing this week is getting ready to go north on Friday. I am not really sure what to take. It is always cooler up in that area, So, I guess I will overpack and be ready for everything.
What are you doing?
Hugs,

Hello everyone
I am sick of all this rain. It's calling for rain almost everyday this week. Ugh. I want to enjoy the outdoors.
I am still sore from Saturday's gardening activities. Note to self..no matter what rent a tiller!!!! LOL!!! I dug up and tilled that soil myself, by hand. It is clay soil and I mixed in some organic soil to loosen it up. I really worked to get that soil loosened up. I am thinking it might take a couple seasons before I get a decent flower bed. I will be surprised if I can get anything to grow in there this year. We will see...cross your fingers. It's a work in progress. I still have to get the new mulch down, but I'm too sore right now.
I really did it with this gardening. I almost never hurt my back....ever. Even when we were moving heavy furniture. I was sore but in my legs and arms. Now my back hurts and my arms and legs. Even so I managed to get some grocery shopping done yesterday. I cooked chili for dinner. And I vacuumed and dusted the house. I read the worse thing you can do is just be sedentary...then you get stiffer. So every so often I would get up and do something.
Tonight Greg will be watching the Hawks game. I try to get into it. But I really am not a sports person. I just sit in the family room with my laptop and fiddle around. I am making a not so healthy dinner too. Something called "loaded chicken and potatoes" it has bacon and cheese. But I thought it would be a nice change and I can eat more chicken then potatoes.
Well on the sad side...I was over at the main board and shocked and saddened to see one of the long time bandsters has pasted. She had a heart attack over the weekend. She was a 9 year band vet and seemingly healthy. It's just shocking. I think she was relatively young too...maybe in her early 60's. So sad to see her go.
Time to get going. Have a good day all.
Hi friends, quiet Sunday, picked up house, knit, read a book, listened to the rain, took a nap--just what I needed. Tomorrow we go to Madison to enjoy seeing dear friends and knitting with them!
have a good week everyone!

I have things to do in the house today so I am thankful for the rain otherwise I would be out in the yard.
What is happening in your corner of Lincoln Land?

After fighting Rick for 3 years about going to the doctor I have finally hit on the solution. At least with him! He whines like a big baby when he is sick. So now I tell him I will not listen to him complain about being sic****il he goes to the doctor! Of course I only do that when I think he really needs a doctor. And it has worked! It has made my life a lot easier and it has helped him get to the doctor sooner rather than wait too long.

I am glad you had a good time on vacation, but so sorry for the horrible ending. That had to be VERY scary! Not the finale for a good vacation that I would have picked. I am so glad that Dave made it through this ordeal and you too! It would be so frightening to have such a major emergency so far from home! It sounds like you were both given excellent care. I am so glad you are settled back in at home and our planning another cruise. I hope Dave has a fast recovery!

Weed wacking, clean up, put tools way, rest up/clean up, go to the Creek, to IT CC for din, din, "surveyed" my kingdom (that is what I call walking in my yard), inside to surf the net. Nite, Nite soon.

Happy Saturday,
I am inching my way to my side yard. I want to trim the bushes and decide what new bushes to add. I am thinking of hydranulas (?), (snowball bushes). I have always loved them. Hubert, in his wisdom last year, pulled 3 bushes where he thought would get in the way of the contractors doing the basement entrance. One bush would of been to many.
Then this afternoon, we are meeting the kids for a late lunch at Starved Rock, and listening to some music.
The Bellamy Bros. concert last night was fab. We even bought their new 40 year album.
Have a great Saturday, it is going to be a good one.
Hugs,

Try to get some sun or perhaps spray tan...that helps with the illusion of slimmer arms. Perhaps look for a very lightweight lacy thin width stole/wrap for coverage. You will be gorgeous no matter what you wear.
Also, I'm not familiar with where u r going, but perhaps u can check Craigslist for stylists who can come to your hotel for hair help. On Katie's wedding day, hair and make up came to the house. Hugs
