Off to the Doctors--

 Well I did give  up--The power was off--could not get on the computer--  gave up--coz I go to the DR for 9am--cud not do everything here-before I go---no TV---no power---no-one to help me--Then-----after calling everyone in the world--the phone rang and it was my friend Kate--who told me to stop worrying--that this happens all the time in this area--that the TV (power) goes out--will come back on it's own--not to worry------  "But what does it look like--a router--?" I asked her--"No, the TV will come back on it's own", she said----AND IT DID___

"Lord love a Duck"--so, I shall return-- just took Lopez out--and he did his business-Son#2  called  also-- asked me if I got the TV back on--"Yes", I said--"It just came on, on it's own", I added--and then said, "What does a router look like?"--and so he explained----  And so, I say again, "Life is hard when one doesn't have a husband--when I spent my life making pies and cakes--  never had to learn about "routers"----- Anyway, I shall return--hopefully in a better frame of mind--  Enough about "routers"--and off to the Doctors--The washer is not even on yet--Poor Sushi is still in bed----but--I know now what a "router" looks like--(I am trying not to panic--)----  Lordy Be!!!

So--here I am--  All is well at the Dr's--have to go to Blood work to-morrow at 7am--so---  I am back home---  and ---

                        Words of wisdom will follow--

#1.Better safe than sorry--

#2.look on the bright side--

#3.Shout for joy--

#4.Long faces make short lives

Struggle to-day, strength to-morrow--

                        Good Morning--  It is  Wednesday, July 22nd--

We have sun---with "cold" temperatures--windy----Lopez and I are up and "at-er"--here --the wash machine is done--AND THE DRYER --and if you can believe it--I have the heat on--  I am freezing!--  sunny and windy outside--

-So, I have talked with Allison who will be leaving  to-day, to drive up here--They will stay in upper Michigan to-night and arrive here to-morrow--excited to have them--SO__

                                Words I wish I had written--

#1. Love is a cure for loneliness

#2. The good and the bad that you do in your lifetime lingers on after             you have left

#3.You cannot always oblige, but we can always speak obligingly.

#4. Love so that your children know that you are fair. caring, and full of integrity.

Be Strong, Brave, Humble and maybe a Badass-

Good morning--It is Tuesday, July 21st  --no rain--no smoke--so far--Daylight---Lopez and I are up--  Sushi sort of up--I would love to report also, that Son#2 the Pilot, landed last night in Vancouver--sent a message , telling me that he was back in Canada-- not back home yet, but a lot closer. And Allison, our daughter , leaves Ohio to-day, en route to Elliot Lake----with her daughter--

It seems a bit muggy  this AM, which means the AC just might be turned on later--We shall see-

                            Words I wish I had written-

#1. Get out of debt.

#2,When you discover you are on the wrong path, turn back.

#3.Duty before pleasure.

#4.One day at a time.

#5.Be the first to reach out or act loving.

            Oh my Goodness--  Here we all are--many moons ago

                                Are they in the ice shack??\

The  time flies doesn't it??--Time to get on with this day--Lopez has already been out--did his business-- (is crated right now as he growled at me--bad boy!)----It is looking like rain outside--The washer has done its job--the dryer is now going-A woman's work is never done--(Mom's expression) 

 So-get off of here--get on with this new day--Make your life more exciting than your dreams--If you think you cannot, then you will not--just remember, you cannot love your pet too much-- You can only be sure of to-day--so, get off of here and get out there and make this the best day ever, in your life.---Oh----  I nearly forgot--

You Can__end of story.

 To-day is Monday, July the 20th--no sun-- In fact, it looks like rain outside--no smoke--(I think!)--still looking a bit dark-- Lopez is up with me--in fact on my chair--which is a big "No No"--(He is hoping I do not see him)-I must turn on the washer--Sushi, the cat was up but gone back to bed--I do not see any smoke outside--yet--

                                Words I wish I had written

#1.Listen to your Mother

#2.Put your house in order

#3.Stay faithful to yourself

Time to get on with this day-Remember to-day, to bite your tongue sometimes--Forget a wrong-remember a kindness-- Mom used to say, "Rome wasn't built in a day"--take your time, love deeply--and if you get off track, get back on, as soon as you can--because a person is as great as her thoughts--So go--get off of here--This day has begun, and here we are, a part of it--Oh---I nearly forgot--
