She was accompanied by her 2 little helpers, one age 9 the other age 4, and what else could I give 2 good helpers to take home, but some Ice -cream... so they came in and helped themselves from the freezer to choc ices.. bless their little bare feet....


Oops be careful I'll be getting accused of taking a picture from a restaurant and saying it's MY dinner... :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

The most important time for you not to get stressed over things you can't change is when you're not well.. you have to concentrate all your power on getting better and blow everything else that's going on in the world.

You and your life are the single most important thing..without your health there's nothing you can do to change anything else... 🤗

Oh hang on I'm forgetting something here.... I think I'm supposed to dent it's yours...sitting on my twisted high horse, '' Oh don't tell me Gigi that's your garden, I don't beieve you, no way... I bet you got that out of a magazine..''...:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Darn. You called me out, and I've been exposed as a fraud. Oh, well, at least I have my looks, long legs and a killer hard body:ROFLMAO:.
 
I went out on my enclosed patio and when walking back up to the house, I felt a sting on my arm and it really hurt, so I went inside and washed it with soap and put some healing cream on it. All of a sudden I felt another sting on my finger and yelled for my husband. I told him a hornet stung me and must still be on me. He found it laying on the kitchen floor and killed it. My arm swelled up at the sting and also my finger. I put a cold pack on both of them and took an antihistamine pill. They quit stinging but still remain sore.

Difficult couple of days. Spent them in hospital with my mom. She fell and has a knee fracture. We spent 7 hours in the emergency room until she could be admitted. All the medical staff were great, it was just a slow process.
Not sure what we are facing now in terms of her recovery. Do know they have ruled out surgery due to her age (91) and frail condition.
If she can become ambulatory again I want her back home with us. Not sure that will happen.
I, myself, am exhausted.

That was very nice of them! I'm curious what that round black thing is in the bottom left corner - a large mushroom? I also liked the little people smiles. Are those breads? Let us know what you ate. Just curious. Thanks!

yes it's a flat mushroom, we use a lot of them here. My neighbors BBQ most things and they were BBQ'ing this evening... if it's a nice evening hubby gets home from work and BBQ'....they often bring supper round for me.. and even if they're having a party they always bring me a plate.. so kind

On the plate tonght far right was Romanian fish with a million bones, but she did say to me the name which I can't remember, and that if I took all the bones out it's really full of protein..I didn't eat it... next to that is a Half garlic toasted baguette.. in front is the potato smiley faces ( for the kids really )... but I got some too lol.... left of that is smoked sausage polish style... left of that is a pork steak... and the flat mushroom in front..

In the bowl was Piping Hot Polenta ( yellow).. sour cream and grated cheese...

I am so sorry to hear this.. you must dread these things happening knowing the great age of your mum...

Oh as a sufferer of OA in my knees, I'm literally cringing at the pain she must have been in, bless her...


I know how much how much you must be worrying, but you must get some rest, if you don't look after yourself you can't look after her... and she's in good hands now..

I wish her everything you wish for her....

jeez Rae..I have been stung by wasps .. I've been stung by mosquitos.. but the hornet that flew up my skirt and stung me on the top of my leg is the only thing that ever made me pass out... the pain was horrific, like no pain I'd ever felt from an insect before... so I really feel for you tonight.. hopefully antihistamine cream will take the pain out soon...
 
Got the window in and the water back on. Only two more sheets of siding and we will have a second side of the house done. The house has six sides. Not sure my guy is up to finishing this anytime soon…but by golly I am going to push for it. And then I am going to have to tackle some of the other glaring indoor issues. The joys of home ownership…

Are you planning on living in this house? What made you choose this one, since I believe you said it’s an hour or more from your present home. Having renovated one house and fixed up other, yikes, it’s a lot of work.
