Multitude of things

Big Feet
Big Feet again
Taking a drink











































































Lets see...
Since I was last on, Mom's been in the hospital with kidney shut down...she got really dehydrated and her kidneys were barely functioning by the time she went to hospital and within 4 hours of pushed fluids she was pretty okay. So they did a battle of tests because she was having seizure like tremors and passed out at home. Within 3 days she was better and was discharged. Encouraged Gator Ade and Cranberry juice.

My sister's 2nd daughter had a little boy named Brady. He is 5# 8oz. That's about all I know. But WELCOME TO THE WORLD LITTLE BRADY!

Hubby went for an overnite job and it was 10 days later he came home. LOL He had to do laundry every other day LOL. We will pack a weeks worth of clothes and 2 weeks worth of meds for the next trip no matter how long they say it will be. LOL

I am walking 5 miles a day now. A friend of mine and I have been walking for 5 weeks straight and it took a month for me to get up to 5 miles. I don't want to get out of bed in the mornings, but I don't want to miss a day of walking either...dedicated?...to the point that we walked in the rain on Friday. LOL I would never have done that before...does that mean it's a habit now?

My feet, ankles and up to my knees are sooo swollen...looks like I have a grapefruit around each ankle. The skin is so tight. I am on water pills but it's not touching it. Guess I'll have to call the Dr back on Monday. Saw him on the 3rd...but he didn't quite know what to think of it. I also got a referral to see a new Oncologist the 20th. (new insurance means new Dr's, darn it, so have to start all over)

We are getting lots of Hummingbirds this summer. Here's a few pictures, hope you can see one of them.

During 2002-2005 while we were in California, Hubby developed a taste for fine wine (me too) and a good cigar...so here he is having one, enjoying our flower rock garden. He has 1/2 a cigar maybe every 3-4 months...looks weird huh.... Oh and by the way the boards with the nails in front of the table are used to put on the chairs because cats were sleeping on them and I'm highly allergic....
