The day went pretty good, considering everything.
I only had the tv on long enough to hear the temp. this morning and then I started by blogging after I had a good breakfast.

I spent the afternoon doing what shoulda got done a long time ago, putting the apt. into shipshape. There's going to be an inspection this month, anyday at all now. The place needed a thorough going over. I'm exhausted. Then I repotted three plants, including my palm plant which is my favorite. The geranium and lemon grass are pretty, as is the impatience, however love the stately beauty of palms.

Tonight I got the grill out and put charcoal on it for cooking supper. Decided to use Hickory smoked chips and wow! Just a lowly hamburger was fantastic! Also cooked a pork steak, and baked some apples on it! holy tamales! hmmmmgood!

Too tired to do much more tonight, almost 10 bells here and am beat to the bones..LOL, boy the neighbors sure start coming out and looking as soon as that charcoal gets going! I've never seen so many neighbors appear so soon! Maybe I need to start inviting some of em?? well maybe the dispatcher for the sheriff's office, and then maybe the couple down the hall that have helped me....not the neighbor drunk though that can only leave the door open on the coldest days, and open on the hottest days when the air is on!

Tomorrow I have errands to run, and then I better check my calendar as I don't know what's planned for this week yet.
I'm finally gonna have the Ryzotomies done on my back, the first set on the 14th of this month then the right side of my spine in Sept. I know I have an appt. with the knee surgeon, my first year checkup since the total knee replacement.

I also have an appt. with a doctor, right after I have my blood work done
Thank goodness that's all as I am also going fishing with that seniors group again!
I gots to catch me a Northern! I can't imagine catching a Muskey! wow! those fish are huge!

Tomorrow, tomorrow, creeps in this petty pace....or something like that. My kingdom for a horse. Then again if wishes were horses, this beggar would ride. Jiggety jggety to market to buy a doggie in the window..

I did talk with the son, so that's one less headache to worry about. When I look around, I ponder the wisdom of my decision and all the work involved, and is it necessary? Is it the best choice? In some ways I know in my head and heart it's the best thing. Yet....some times I wonder....One is the loneliest number..
The time had come said the walrus to the ...shoes, and hats and sealing wax...
a favorite movie of mine~ K=Pax with Kevin Spacey.

I've been avoiding TV like a plague! Just news news news.... and bad news to boot!
War sucks!! I wish it would end already...
I worry sick about my loved ones living in the line of fire up north... next weekend I decided I will go there just to show them my support and love. I am not afraid of death... just rather annoyed that Israel is doing such horrible things to our neighbours to get back the hatred in the form of rockets.
I m sickened when I read blogs by MM about Israel... you can feel the hatred in every word he writes.. that's exactly why we are in the trouble we are in today.
I hope you are trying to keep up with my blog... I know its depressing, but you will get a much clearer picture of what is going on here than from reading what Elie writes.
Anyhow... time for bed...hope to see you blogging here more often.
Loveya!

Yes it's difficult to watch tv, and I do read your blogs, it's so horrendous what's happening over there. It's truly saddening...

I bet you ARE worried about your loved ones! That has to be really very nerve wracking. I"m sorry you have loved ones in the line of fire :( Please be careful when you go up there?

I haven't read MM's blogs for a long time, so guess I don't know what he's saying. A lot of people have really strong feelings about the whole thing, Iraq, and Lebanon and Israel. I take your word for it that it isn't good what he's writing!!

Yes, you'll see me here more often. I'm at a turning point. Take care dear friend! Love you too :)
