Beware of Baklava!

 Well, I finally managed to get back into blogger. Crazy computer!

We had a nice trip to the Tri-cities. We went to the party Tuesday evening and darn if that Mindy didn't buy the most delicious Baklava, a rich, sweet, wonderful Greek desert. I had a few pieces and then alittle piece of carrot cake. That did it! I had the worst gall bladder attack ever! After getting over the worst of it I was feeling better Wed. morning and just laid around for the next couple days....afraid to eat anything! But, because of that I got to visit with lots of Grandkiddos and watch my great grandson Edison toddle around . He is very sweet. Rachel changed his diaper and put it in the waste basket. Well, alittle later he walked by the wastebasket and saw the diaper in it. He picked it up and shook it at Rachel as he let her know that was his job!! He put it back in and then took it out again and repeated his rage and then put it back in. It was pretty funny. Kids are such good entertainment!

I never did get down to the river but it was beautiful out my window. Got to spend some time with my sister Liz before I got sick. Jim worked on her bathroom while we shopped.  Visited with Cozette, she looks good for 89, we miss having her close.

    Before I had my gall bladder removed, I was in terrible pain and was not sure what it was. I suffered through till it became unbearable and I finally went to the hospital. When they removed it, relief came quickly. Within a week or two, I was fine.

This is the view from our front porch on a cold, snowy day. Lucky us we moved back in time for the coldest, snowiest winter in decades! It is beautiful but, after a month of it, it's starting to get alittle old. We are blessed to have the nicest neighbor ever. He has regularly plowed our drive after each snowfall, I don't know  what we would have done without him, and thank-you never seems like enough. Any ideas? This week the schools were all closed, it'll be late release this year. Of course we've found plenty to do inside. This has been Jim's first full week home in months and he's enjoying it to the fullest. The garage is looking great and things are being organized. I feel no compulsion to ever finish unpacking,  my cabinets and closets are full so the rest can stay in the boxes. After fighting for a month to keep the goats water filled and unfrozen, we found out about these heated buckets and rushed out to buy one. What a relie

Let's be Real

Some day's I don't get out of bed. My body tells me it's that kind of a day. Sometimes I love those kind of days. It doesn't make it a "bad" day. I manage to be productive in little ways......or some days I watch reruns all day. But, I really love those days when I get up and my body says "Were going to get things done today!" "Were going for a walk", "Were going to run errands". I do love those days! So two weeks ago when I broke my foot (tripping down a couple stairs) I was able to go with the flow pretty easily. I got a knee scooter (God bless the inventor!) which gives me more independence, and is a huge hit with the grandkids! It's still a pain in the neck, not being able to drive my biggest complaint.  I go in today to see if they'll put a pin in or not. My Manly Man has been very good to me but I think he too will be glad when........this too will pass!

Sweet Lily (and this wasn't posed) Korean Valentine's Day dinner On the plate is pink rice (usually white!), thinly sliced beef, dried seaweed, all to be rolled together and dipped in sesame oil and salt. Sarah's children love Korean food, thanks to their Korean Grandma. She cooks all kinds of things (some that I won't eat)for them and they eat it all! This is something that is everyones favorite (even I have developed a taste for dried seaweed). Its so easy, and we make ourselves sick on it. Luna and Hannah...best friends Our daughter Rachel.She's learning how to play the guitar and we'll all be glad when she learns another song! Conner still crying after his blessing.He wasn't real happy. Chloe in her baptism dress. She's one special girl! These are some cute things in Sarah's lovely house.
