The Hubby isn't feeling well

LB seems to be having a time as of late with his legs and his foot. Every since the last surgery his foot and part of his left leg have basically been numb, and he has what the doctor calls Foot Drop. He has been having a really hard time lately with them (being both legs right now) aching and tingling.
He also has been complaining of his side hurting, he had an infection once before in the same area, and I'm afraid it has returned, so it looks like we'll make a trip to the doctor or the ER sometime tomorrow.
He's been trying to ignore the pain but I think it's getting worse, so I'm going to have him seen somewhere tomorrow.
The problem with him is, he won't set still and let something rest and heal properly. The moment he feels, eh,its not so bad, he pops up and does a buttload of work around the house, on his feet all the time and we go through the swelling, tingling, and such all over again.
I don't think it'll ever be "right" again, but I wish it would get better than it is now. It's hard to keep a good man down!

Pretty Flower

I took this pretty picture out in my flower bed this past weekend. Thought I'd share it with you, it soooo pretty, don't you think?

Wednesday, already!?!

Gosh, my week just seems like it is flying by, with the exception of when I have been trying to fall asleep in the stuffy hot bedroom, with the portable a/c which is doing less than a half-as@ job at cooling me off! The air man came to fix us yesterday, the hubby called and said it was starting to cool off, I said Thank Dog, I hate being hot. About 30 minutes later, he calls back, guess what, it's blowing hot air again. ARGH! NO! How can this be! Air man back again today! As of about an hour ago, it was still working, lets just hope it lasts through the night. The bad news is, he said eventually we will have to replace the unit!?! Shocker there, along with everything else we need to repair and replace! Just hoping perhaps it'll stay afloat through this summer.
In other news, I wasn't on yesterday cause I had to get my hair did! Yeppers, cut and snip and color time! Whew! It feels so much better, don't know how I ever stood it with that long hair I used to have! So, anyway, I got my hair done, rushed home to watch a bit of the Michael Jackson memorial and then it was off to work and I pretty much stayed busy all night! Now I feel like I'm caught up.

Wood, wood, and even more wood!

We started getting some wood for the winter in May. This is how we started out.


Next, it started to look like this. Looks like we will stay warm for part of the winter anyway.

Low and behold, here comes more wood. Started having to put it out in the back.

Now,they had to break down and borrow a gas powered splitter. The manual one just wasn't gonna get it with these big pieces.

Well, yesterday, he finally finished up with the last of the splitting. Then this morning, he tells me he's going to go get more! Anyone who gets cold this winter, you know where to come get toasty!

Happy Freedom Day!

Hope all have a safe and happy holiday! Eat, drink and do it all over again!

Bye Bye Birdies

The birdies have grown and all flown away now. This was the last one of the bunch.
Fly well birdies.

Long Weekend

After I get off work tonight, I won't have to be back there until Monday at 2:30, can we say yipee? So glad for this long weekend, have many things I'd like to get accomplished, but we'll have to see how it goes. First, is giving the dogs a bath, wait didn't I just say I was off for the weekend, sigh, some work is never done I suppose.
On that note, I think I'll take a nap, got up early with the dogs, and of course they came back in and went to sleep, guess I will too.
