What is Wrong with These Photos?

This morning, I went to Kowalski's in Stillwater, Minnesota to pick up a few items. You know...pita bread, soy milk, cheese, veggies, fruit, etc.

I really love shopping at Kowalski's, they have a wonderful varity of fresh foods, grass feed meats and a yummy deli.

But I want to know ... what is wrong with these photos?




Don't get me wrong, I LOVE...love Halloween! But, it's still August! School hasn't even started.

Can we please get through Labor Day first?

Wait for Autumnal equinox? Which is not until Tuesday, September 22nd!


BooWoo...does this mean that summer is almost over?!

I am NOT ready for summer to end!

Hand is Doing Well


I had another hand procedure done yesterday. Doc took the K wires (pins) out. I guess my tendons was rubbing on them and I was risking puncturing my tendons.

K WIRES

I really hate going into surgery.

Hate the crap they give you to knock you out. Hate the smells in there, hate the chill in the air, hate waking up sick to my stomach. The whole thing just plain scares the hell out of me.

Why is it that they always say "You're going to like how you feel" when they give you the crap to knock you out?

I HATE THAT FEELING!

I guess that is why I do not drink nor do drugs, I do not like that "oozy out of this world feeling"... no thanks!

The staff at Regions in Hastings was wonderful and my doc chatted with me about barrel racing before the procedure. It's good to have a horse lover and owner for a surgeon, he understands how important it is to get "back into the saddle". My doc's weekend up in Fergus Falls running cans was fun for him and his son.

When I got home yesterday from the hospital, my hand was hurting just a bit, but I was sick to my stomach. Yucky....I hate throwing up and being doped up.

Today, I feel much better! And the pain is bearable. No need for the drugs that they sent home with me. Guess, I toss them away.

Oh...I didn't get much sleep last nite, it was storming bad. Lots of lightening and very loud, bed shaking thunder. My girl doggies, Lucy and Molly were very scared. They both crawled onto me to snuggle and it's hard to breath with 80 lbs of doggies on top. HA!

Y'all take care!

Bum Knee & Bum Hand

Y'all know that my right hand is crap, and once again ...I'm heading back into surgery tomorrow for one more procedure. They are removing the pins, cuz a tendon is rubbing on them. Doc think it may rupture the tendons.

On top of that, I hurt my left knee a few months ago.

It feels like I'm falling apart. HA!

Anywho...my hubby, the funny guy, surprised me with this funny look a few mornings ago.


Funny guy! HAHA!

That's why I love him!

Will check back ....in a few days. Take care!

Love Heaven Sent

Lunch and a great read!


"Postcards" by T.Faron is a lovely book that shows us that love, no matter how much time it spans...is everlasting.

When Sara and Ryan met, they had no idea that they had been searching for each other. Their love gave them the strength to recover from heart breaks, and most of all it gave Sara the strength she needed to face her greatest fear. But, this was not just a love story, it was a love triangle. Between a man, a woman and a beagle named Molly.

I enjoyed how T. Faron let us peeked into the every day life of Ryan, Sara and Molly. Sara saw the depth of Ryan's love with his simple gestures; a special bone for Molly, letters, roses and postcards from heaven.

Love stories are usually not my first choice to read, but this one caught me and I couldn't put it down until I read the last sentence.

"Postcards" is a book that will be enjoyed by all for it's message of love, hope and dreams.

As with all of this author's books, Postcards will leave you wishing for another chapter.

Looking forward to the next book!
