We went to Kentucky for a church homecoming, and took some time to check out properties near Irvine that we saw on Zillow. Somehow our GPS got confused in the mountains, but we found the property I had my eye on purely by accident. It is everything that I want - a view, quiet, and a small house. The only problem is that we aren't ready to retire for anot her couple years, and can't afford two mortgages. I hope the LORD will keep it for us!

I feel so thankful! Carol had just begun working at Walmart, where my son, her brother, also works. Before that she delivered for Chik-fil-A. If she would have been on the road when the seizure struck, she would have been in an accident.

I go to a chiropractor for pain of any kind. Glad something can help me, I can't take ibuprofen or muscle relaxers often. I have terrible reactions to the stuff.
Hugs to your family, Vanessa
Today's good mood brought to you by a lot of coffee!!!

Vanessa so sorry. Prayer for your dh and daughter. I'm curious what the steroids are supposed to do for a pinched nerve?

We've slowed down a bit. His leg began hurting on Monday, he went to the VA hospital on Wednesday and got lidocaine patches, them went back on Saturday, and they discovered a pinched nerve in his back and gave him some steroids. He feels a bit better.
Our daughter Carol had a seizure at work, and were worried about her now too.

Vanessa, loved the "still married" quip. Working with the spouse can sometimes be challenging.

LOL Vanessa, I like the “still married” part, projects do tend to bring out the tension. I also love a campfire on a fall evening.

I am sitting outside with the cheery fire in our fire pit. Bugs are chittering and it is so peaceful
Our new wood fence is coming along well - and we are still married.

Vanessa, your cat is so cute! He reminds me of a cat that my sister had when she was younger! It had broken its leg and thumped around the house for awhile in a cast!

Karl Catnip knows the best spots for napping. My repairs to a flannel sheet can wait until he goes outside.
He also supervises me when I organize my trims.

I am certain that we will get our jobs, it would be very hard to replace either of us.
In the meantime I am writing to penpals, quilting and cleaning.
