We did not get much rain yesterday, just settled the dust.Garden has burned up anyway. We got the first good mess of okra yesterday. I can have it for dinner tonight with some improved pinto beans a patient gave me this week. I gave her some vegetables and she had to give something back.
Quiet today at work, the doctor is out, I am the only one here, answering the phone and giving directions. A couple of patients have stopped by planning on getting worked in and got disappointed. I scheduled a new patient for tomorrow though. People are always stopping here to ask for directions somewhere, we need to start charging. Lol!
I was reading some of the classes for our August seminar in KC, one is called How to make yourself indispensable. I am not sure I would want to be indispensable. It is hard enough to get a couple of days off around here. I don't know what Doc is going to say when I tell him I am going to take my vacation in June again next year. I have already bought my ticket for the CMA Fest in 07. I have been here for 10 years and only get 1 week, so I think I should be able to take it whenever I want.
Its almost lunch time, so write more later.

Today my oldest daughter turned 40, I was almost 19 when she was born, where have the years gone. I have gray hair and my skin is sagging, aches and pains when the weather changes or it rains. I use to laugh at people saying its gonna rain my elbow hurts or my knees, or whatever, but I seem to ache more when the weather changes. I don't want to go back though. I guess I wouldn't change anything, maybe I could be skinnier. Lol.
Today husband and I prepared and canned 9 pints of salsa, I think I got it hot enough for him this year. I left the seeds in the jalapeno peppers this year, I usually scrap them out so the salsa will look prettier.
Better go, its bed time, granddaughter kept me up last night playing Bespelled on the computer, it was 2:00 am when we finally went to sleep.

Good Moring! I am getting ready for work, my computer does not want to work this morning. I didn't think my blog was ever going to boot up. New update popped up, I guess it just took a while for....
We got some rain yesterday and last night, then another little shower this morning. It is too late for the tomatoes, help the egg plant and stuff. It will be steamy today.
It has been a long week. I am ready for Friday. My friend came by yesterday, she had surgery on her ear. They made her a new ear drum, she could her me talking and she wasn't wearing her hearing aide. People are always telling me to speak louder, I have a soft voice, my husband is always saying what.
Talked with my first daughter last night, younger grandson got a job for the summer or longer. I think is going to college this fall, hope so. Middle grandson got fired from his job, his mom wouldn't say why, he didn't want her to tell me. She and her husband go riding on weekends, they have little bug cars, they go riding in the woods and back roads just for fun. They have several other couples that go, they seem to really enjoy it. Daughter let her 3 year old grandson ride with papa in his car. She said she guess she lost her spot, Grandson said he was riding with papa and wouldn't get out. She told him he had to get out and ride with daddie and mom, he just ingored her. I thought that was cute.
Time for work.

I have just had 4 days off from work. My boss decided to take Monday off too, which is great, so I have taken it easy for the past 4 days. Well, I did can 14 pints salsa and put about 5 bags of corn in the freezer from the garden. A little cleaning and some cooking and my heel is feeling better. Back to work tomorrow, boo hoo!
My handsome little great grandson come over last night, he is so cute, looks like his dad did when he was that age. He really gets excited about trains, we live near a train track and he could hear the train whistle, he would get this big smile on his face.
Husband is leaving on vacation in the morning, he is going camping with friends up at a place called Bar Shed. I hate camping, but he loves it, use to go when our girls were younger, they are all grown up now. I like the comforts of home.

Whoopee!!! It is rainning! Husband said, "It was rainning early this morn, messed up his fishing plans, but that was alright, we need the rain for the garden". I think we are supposed to get rain all weekend. I woke up at 6:30 to let Miss Kitty out and there was a light rain then. I won't have to drag the water hose around for a few days.
My sweet granddaughter spent the night with us last night, I gave up and went to bed about midnight, I think I heard husband tell her to go to bed sometime this morning. She is still asleep on the couch, we have a bed for her to sleep in, the grandsons always had to sleep in the living room when they were younger, ofcourse, the tv is in there. I think I am going to get a small blow up bed this room, I have tv and computer in here. The house is small and sometimes the noise keeps me awake, but I was out cold last night. Usually I like Fridays nights for myself, but she wanted to be home for fahers day. I will have to take her to Wal-mart to get a card for her dad.
The rain has stopped for the moment, no it is rainning again.

Back at work today, Doc walks in to the front office and says the office is back to normal. I did not realize their was only the two of them while I was gone. Susie had Dr.'s appointment Monday and Tuesday both of this week. She wears hearing aides, they are going to do surgery on one of her ears, if it works she will never have to wear hearing aide in that ear again. Then they will do the other ear. Susie lives in the Ozark mountains, her sister, our boss says she will have to get ear plugs to sleep at night, all those crickets will keep her awake, she got a big laugh at that.
Nashville was a lot of fun, we listen to lots of country music, saw lots of stars. The best vacation I have ever had. One of my favorite actors is singing country music. John Corbett, I wasn't sure about his singing but he is not too shabby.

I am back from vacation. I have to go back to work tomorrow. Boo Hoo! Had so much fun, got to see a lot of stars, not many autographs. Could not get any real famous autographs, but did get some. The actor John Corbett is trying to get into country music, he played down on the river, not too bad. I have always liked him as an actor, his singing is not too bad.
My heel was really sore, but I walked a lot of miles these past few days. Had a blast though.

Started my vacation today at 12:30 pm. We are going to Country Music Festival in Nashville, TN. My oldest daughter, youngest grandson and some friends are going too, it will be so much fun, I always enjoy hanging out with my children and grandchildren. I have two step grandchildren I enjoy too, when they are not driving me crazy. Brother and sister so they always fight and bicker. Hopefully I will get some good pictures to share if I can get them on the computer.
Went to see my foot doctor today, I have a very sore heel, I have spurs on both heels and planter facities in my right heel, it sure does hurt. The doctor and his family are going to Nashville too. I thought that was cool we were going to the same place maybe we will see them in Nashville.

Today is my husband's birthday, # 61. We are getting old. Had the kids over for ribs and stuff. I made homemade rolls for him, he thought that was a good birthday present. I haven't done much cooking lately, usually on the holidays we cook out or something. Justin said we haven't done this in a long time, so I need to try and feel better so we can do it more often.
I have a doctors appointment tomorrow with the foot doctor. My right heel is so sore, it is hard to stand for very long. I think my left heel is getting sore too, not sure if its my arches or a heel spur, it is so painful. Dr. Yates gave me a shot in my left hip, it made it feel a lot better, so I thing I want one in my heel. I am going to Nashville and will be doing a lot of walking, I am so excited, we are going to the country music festival, it will be so much fun if my heel is not hurting. It is going to be fun anyway.

Beautiful day, a little chilly, sunny and very windy. I think it got down to 49 degree last night. I wouldn't care if the weather stayed like this all the time. I am a fall and spring person, winter is okay, if we don't get a lot of ice. We don't get much snow, usually ice storms.
I left work early today, was not feeling well. Checked my sugar it was fine it might have been from not sleeping last night. My hips were hurting, haven't bothered me in a while, I did sorta do the splits when I mopped the batheroom Tuesday. Right leg went one way, left the other way, caught myself on the vanity so I did not go all the way down.
Went to Toad Suck Daze in Conway last Friday night, that was the biggest mess, I don't think they realized the turn out they would get from their concerts. They had David Aldean and Merinda Lambert, people took chairs to sit in at the concert but when the stars come out on stage everyone has to stand up. I have never seen so much pushing and shoving and rude people. I got my picture made with Miranda Lambert, grandson snapped the picture before I was ready, needless to say, I have a weird expression on my face.

Another thunder storm, it blew my umbrella over, I had it in the table and in a stand to secure it. Didn't notice any tree limbs down though, but it is still dark out. Husband covered up the green house with a tarp to protect it from the wind, the cover is so flimsy.

Today is my youngest sister's birthday, she has reached the big 50. I was 8 when she was born, so that tells you how old I am.
It is cloudy again, we are getting so much rain, I am afraid when it stops, it will stop. We went through most of last summer with a burn ban. Had to water the garden to keep it from burning up. We have blooms on our tomato plants, the green beans are coming up, won't be long.
Vacation is coming up too, I am so ready. I only get one week a year and I have worked there for 10 years. I think it is time for another paid week of vacation.
Better get back to vacunum cleaning.

Slow day at work, did not have our boring staff meeting. The boss stayed at home waiting on the plummer. Doc took us to lunch at Madame Wu's. Susie and I were going there for lunch, but he paid for our lunch so that was even better. The food is just not as good as when the orginal Madame Wu was there. I wish she was still here, but she moved to Fayetteville and opened a place there. I got a pedicure and manicure today for $20.00. I messed up the polish on my big toe before I even got in the house. Boo Hoo!
The night is windy and cool. Temperature is 56 degrees, a few days ago it was in the 90 and we turned the air on. We got a hard rain yesterday evening and early this morning. It was storming at 4:30 this morning so I stayed home, no workout today. I did do some yoga, so I wasn't terrible lazy. The rain will be good for the garden. Make the veggies grow.

Worked out again today, walked a little on tread mill, the did lower body today, then more elliptical walker. See how this does my lower back. Love the elliptical walker, but been having back pain.
Lovely day out, the sun is shinning and a nice breeze blowing. Vegetables are starting to come up in the garden, won't be long.

Computer is running slow, didn't think msn was going to come up. Cannot sleep again. This is my life, work, not much sleep. I use to go to bed and sleep so good, not wake up till alarm went off.
Grandson called tonight, someone threw a rock and hit back of his head, said he has a gash there and thinks he has a slight concussion. Must not be too bad, he was at friends house. Something is always happening to him.
We finally got some rain, a good slow rain, the squash is coming up and the corn. I planted green beans, they should be coming up soon. I am ready for some fresh veggies.
