Kathy, what is causing your chest pains?

ulled a muscle at the gym

Ouch. I hope it heals quickly.

Kathy so glad to hear the roses are starting to bloom. I can't wait to see flowers !
take it easy at the gym tiger. Don't over do it.
Hooray Ernie is feeling better. so happy to hear the good news.
not much going on here.
Cookie is busy with her kitchen redo. She is fine and the family is fine. She is just busy.

got home about noon and headed right to the gh where I cut dahlia bulbs for a couple of hours tHEN HEADED TO THE KIDNEY DR WHERE I DID NOT GET THE NEWS I HOPED FOR.sorry.At least I got some things cleared up

So sorry you didn't get the news you wanted. I'm sure you're stressed, but please...... what was the news? Holding you in prayer, Ernie

Keep drinking water Erie, it might get better yet!

Sending prayers!

Sorry about the news you got from your doctor, Ernie.

I think I have discovered where my pictures are that I imported, but working on how to put them in the folder I want. I don't think there is a place in my brain to comprehend all this computer stuff.

Here is picture of the ant made from metal and 3 stones I got from my SIL for Christmas. I really don't want to leave him/her out in the garden. I don't have it sideways in my computer, have to work on that one too

I is here, with a throbbling headache and a sinking feeling in my heart.
Hope both go away soon.

Aww brother Ernie. you are so loved here, and whatever the kidney specialist advised you, please adhere to them.
Sending prayers brother. AND don't do any spicy food, especially black pepper.

Sis Kathy, what muscle? There are many in our body.. I always pull my brain muscles.

Thanks for that news on Cookie, Sue. That girl has the stamina of a teenager.

Synda, do you have pictures of your lilac.. or they aren't in bloom yet in your area?

Pegi, I just heard a 'crack' when I leaned my neck to look at the ant!! I wouldn't put it outside unless protected by the natural elements.

Thanks for the new room LK.

Again I appreciate everyone's prayers and especially affection.

Sorry your feeling down Jaye. (((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))

Hello Ladies,

I have been very busy, lol. Still working on the back yard/garden. really need to get out front the weeds are taking over ugh.

Here is the latest, almost done just waiting on some tomato plants and swimming pool. Then I'm going to paint flower pots for Herbs.

The big white tarp is where the pool will go, the other small white tarp is for Harlee's pool, lol

I have Asparagus coming up, yippie but they are so small I barley spotted them lol. Kale is doing real good.

Looks good Cindy. What kind of pool?

It's small but big enough for me to keep cool.

looks good, Cindy! :-)

oh me oh my..... never know what's going to happen next in our household........
3am this morning Bob got up to "walk off" a cramped toe that was doubled up towards him at the top. He got it somewhat down with his other foot, and decided to walk it off. He said the pain of the cramp was so severe that he passed out, hitting a solid oak table top leaning up against one of our bedroom walls. In hitting it, he knocked it down and it fell on him battering his ribs. I leapt out of bed, and he was all clammy from the shock I presume. I picked up the table top and re-seated it. When he was able to get up, he seemed ok, just sore where it fell on him. We went to the Dr this afternoon, and he said Bob's badly bruised it and gave him T3s and a note to stay off work until next Tuesday. His job requires a lot of lifting, twisting and bending. Right now, even walking down stairs hurts because it jars his side. As gently as I could drive, we still had to stop, go around corners, hit bumpy roads and train tracks.......
I have my darling home with me for a week anyway :-) Not the way I wanted it to happen, but it's still nice. We took the Drs note to where he works, and his boss said he'd see that Bob got paid for days off because he's good, and they will miss him.

Glad to hear he went to the Dr. Sending prayers for speedy recovery. Glad to hear he is getting paid for time off.

Cindy, that is like our pool.

Thank you, Linda Kay - I am hoping he will heal quickly. He's kinda tough, so I expect he will :-)
I am concerned about the passing out - even though he says it's from a low tolerance to the pain of trying to deal with his cramped toe......

Did you mention to his Dr. that it's not the first time?

Susan that is so terrible for Bob ! Maybe he is low in magnesium . You can't test magnesium levels by blood work because when the body get low it will rob from other places in the body ,via causing severe cramps in the legs /feet .If it get too low can cause a heart attack .I take a magnesium supplement every night for restless leg syndrome ,leg /feet cramps .It really helps a lot,without the side effects that something like Lyrica has .

Cindy when we lived in town we had that kind of pool ,it was an 18' x 48" .I loved it and miss it to this day !

I take a magnesium tablet every night too Susan for cramps. It really helps me....

So do I.

Susan I seen this blanket and instantly thought of you . I learned to crochet ,but never to knit .
This is just so adorable ............ http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/entrelac-baby-blanket-w508

I seen it on FB ......... http://thewhoot.com.au/whoot-news/crafty-corner/entrelac-knitted-blanket

Good morning sisters.
I echo the magnesium takers. Kel has severe leg cramps, and Synda had suggested last year to take magnesium twice in a day. He had for a long while, and his cramps eased off.
Since he went bonkers, he quit taking them since December and his cramps returned and I am not about to remind him of his supplement. He's a proud man and decided bananas will help, Mr. smart is still suffering from cramps.
They are so bad that he'd scream sometimes.

So Susan, start giving Bob that supplement.

I am taking 2 anti depressants, maybe I need to take another? Don't know whether that would help with this morose feeling. I somehow cannot make my get up and go, get up!! Lolol.
Just want to veg in the bible.. a good place to be right?

I saw this on Facebook, and had to share!

Lolol.. of course you cannot put a leash on a cat and expect it to lead you!! Too funny, and yes dogs are much more into destroy, but some cats can lean into mischief, like mine.
Thanks LK, I can now return to readng, smiling!!

Had to show you the tiny seeds from my japanese maple I got last year in the raise my baby swap! Will they grow if I plant them?

Linda Kay that video .........LOL
I would try and grow the seeds ,never hurts to try !
Jaye Hope and Pray that I hear that giggle again soon ! Know that I'm always here ........

Echoing here on the magnesium. Drs. put me on 500mg per day. Helps with cramps and protects the heart.

lol on the cad vs dog video

that baby blanket is adorable!! Thank you, Synda :-)
If I get asked to do another one, that's the one I will do, for sure! (if I can figure out how to do it lol)

I thought Bob took magnesium every night, but apparently he doesn't - he will NOW!! lol
Bob & I are going for a Legion Lunch today - they have such good meals!!!!

Next time to the store I will get magnesium. Wonder why my doctor never mentioned it as he is so good about everything that helps me.

I'm still working on getting the right pictures in the right folder, and see why my pictures won't post in the right direction. Probably a very easy thing, but I make easy jobs seem very hard.

Love what Cindy is doing with her yard, I have some odd pavers here that I could use to make a small raised bed. If I do get around to it I'll be sure to put down some weed cloth first.

Get well soon Bob, I'm always running into things and worry about taking a bad fall. That darn balance thing really messes up your walking.

I worry about falls too. balance is still a bit off. I'm OK in the house but take my cane when we go out.

I don't use a cane in the house either, but have to if I go out walking any where. Can't walk a straight line. I found out a couple years ago that the balance part in my brain is damaged. I had an MRI taken of my brain because the doctor thought he saw something he didn't like. Well, he said I had the damage since birth, no wonder it took me so long to learn how to walk. I sure don't want to have to start using a walker instead of a cane just yet.

My sister volunteers at her local library in the used box section so I told her to watch out for the People series to come in. She can let them know to watch out for the books and put them aside for her. I'm on book 7 of Outlander series.

Pegi ,you are just the super reader !!!!!
I used to read a lot .......but for some reason I have lost interest . But I need new glasses (haven't had my eyes checked in 5 yrs) and I have an eye Dr's appt the 13th .So maybe after that it will make a difference .

Well Jayegirl,

Seems you and I are in the same boat, found out Doug joined a dating site. Went over this morning dug up all the rest of my flowers and packed some stuff. Will be going back over with a uhaul to get the rest of my stuff.

Happy April Fool's day to me.........................

oh Cindy....... I am SO sorry to hear of Doug's indiscretions..... what a nasty trick to pull on you!!!
((((((((hugs)))))))) to you, sweetheart
