The Black family are here.

We are happy to have some visitors here for a few days.

 Bedtime for the kids and anyone else who is tired.  They have had a long day traveling.

                                           KORIA YOU ALWAYS LOOK SO GOOD!

                                      Layne is ready to tell Grandpa goodnight.  Too bad he hurts so much
that he can't take her in his arms.   He thinks he is healing too slowly, but I'm sure it will take a little while.



Dr. appointment for Dad

Notice the new rubbarb cooming up.

Flowers coming to life.

Dad has a lot of pain and spent most of the night last night in his chair.

This morning we went to see Dr. Harper.

He didn't think there was a rib cracked, just bruised a lot.

He gave him a sheet to do some exercises with his shoulder and some pain pills.

Hopefully he will get some sleep tonight.



Love those library books

Today I paid the Library a visit.  With a book you can visit all kinds of  places

and learn a lot of interesting things.

Out of all of our senses, I think I would miss my sight the most.

Read any good books lately?



"oversize" towels

 I ordered 2 towels from Wal Mart and they were advertized as "Oversized".

As you can see they are big.  Much bigger than I expected.

They seem like they will be nice.

So if you want some beach towels, you know where to get them.

I got them on a good sale. 1/2 price.  Two for $12.

Daffodils are in bloom!

It looks like Spring may have come.  Now if it would get a little warmer.

My daffodils are finally blooming.  I love the first flowers of the spring.

They seem to say, "Don't give up, we are here again.

The one time of the year when yellow even looks good.  These flowers are from starts I got from my Mom.

Grandpa got hurt again.

Dad got banged up again this morning.  He was trying to walk up the ramp on the new trailer.

Needless to say his shoes were slippery and Becky was out there with him thank goodness, as he fell right on his face.  He cut up his mouth some and hurt his shoulder and some of his rigs.

He won't go in and get an x-ray so we are hoping he will be okay.

He put his collar back on and we are hoping he didn't injure his neck.  I will have to watch him like a hawk to keep him inside.  He wanted me to put his shoes on, but I wouldn't.  He is stubborn allright.

fire burns up the pile.

Dad and Becky burned up the pile of pine needles.  It looks pretty small now.

B ecky tried to help Dad take off a part on the riding mower so they could put a new part on.
They spent about 2 hours and couldn't do what they wanted to.  Lance and Katrina came to see us tonight with their family.  Laance helped Dad do what they needed to do but hurt his back in the process.  Guess we just needed an engineer.  Hope it gets better soon.  It was good to visit with all of them.
