Hi Sheba and a good evening to you. Hubby is better today, but still in pain. He let the warm shower hit his back and knee and that seemed to help. This is something we will let the doctor know at his appointment.

I awoke this morning with a migraine. To say it was bad is an understatement. I not only took an Excedrin but also included some sinus meds. It helped a little, but had to hide the head under a bunch of covers until it passed hours later. I’m OK now. Actually, now, it seems like a bad dream.

Just a few minutes ago we started talking about a return trip North. Now, all of a sudden hubby is afraid of the trip saying he isn’t sure if we should go. Told him to wait and ask the doctor when we see him. If he says NO, decision is made. If it’s OK then the decision rests on us. During our discussion, the phone rang. I didn’t answer and let the machine do it’s thing. The physical therapist called. She will be here tomorrow between 1 pm and 2 pm. Now if only I can get the Visiting Nurse to do the same.

By the way, I just tried the Keto Ice Cream from Aldi’s. Not bad. Best part, hubby is enjoying it. It will be interesting to see if his sugar is down.

Good evening to you. My husband just mentioned today that leaf season is here🍁 and will keep him busy until snow season.❄ After that is grass season, so he has renamed the seasons and we now only have three in the ‘burgh, lol!😄

We decided to keep mom company this afternoon so stopped and picked up Kentucky fried chicken,🍗 one of her favorites, and talked, watched football🏈 and baseball.⚾ It was nice to just sit around, I am always running here and there with her on Fridays. We will probably pick her up and go out to eat one day during the week. Sis will be back in one month.

Have a nice evening. Sending hugs back to Oz.🤗

Hello Sheba and good Sunday to you.😘🦋
We are busy today getting ready to head home to Boerne tomorrow. Hubby said we will be back later for a few more weeks so we aren’t “winterizing” the house yet.
We had a beautiful day today and enjoyed our last bike ride this morning.
Hugs to you and Poppy from the munchkins and me.❤️❤️
Take care Sheba. Talk to you soon.

A Hazy Shade of Winter
Song by Simon & Garfunkel

Time, time time, see what’s become of me
While I looked around for my possibilities
I was so hard to please
Don’t look around
The leaves are brown
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter
Hear the Salvation Army band
Down by the riverside’s, there’s bound to be a better ride
Than what you’ve got planned
Carry your cup in your hand
And look around
Leaves are brown, now
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter
Hang on to your hopes, my friend
That’s an easy thing to say
But if your hopes should pass away
Simply pretend that you can build them again
Look around
The grass is high
The fields are ripe
It’s the springtime of my life
Seasons change with the scenery
Weaving time in a tapestry
Won’t you stop and remember me
At any convenient time?
Funny how my memory skips while looking over manuscripts
Of unpublished rhyme
Drinking my vodka and lime
I look around
Leaves are brown, now
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter
Look around
Leaves are brown
There’s a patch of snow on the ground
Look around
Leaves are brown
There’s a patch of snow on the ground
Look around
Leaves are brown
There’s a patch of snow on the ground
