ReplyDeleteGood morning, sis.
ReplyDeleteI'll come back in a few hours. We don't know what the day will bring yet.
{{{HUGS}}} Love, Maggie
Great--I shall look for yu -=-Lynda
DeleteMorning Lynda,
ReplyDeleteI am glad to hear you passed your memory test. Now, you don't have to worry about that anymore.
Good to hear the snow has stopped, but sorry about the rain. I would much rather have snow than rain. It's prettier and less muddy. : -)
It's warm here, been in the low 80's the last few days. But, it's going to cool off on Sunday, back to the 50's.
Have a good day no matter the weather.
Hugs,
Jackie
Jackie--so good that you have a warm day--Alliison told me that also--Lynda--At least our snow has stopped--Lynda
ReplyDeleteHi Lynda! it is cloudy and warm in Ohio. I love the saying about the common enemy for grandchildren and grandparents are the parents. When mine came the other day they were told no a few times over dumb stuff. I wanted to say why??? Me and my sister want to say to our children to live the grand kids and you kids leave. LOL Love your pics today. I hope you have a great day! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteYes Allison said it was nice in Ohio also---- Happy yu enjoy the pics--memories eh??--Good memories for sure--Lynda
DeleteGood morning Lynda, you sound very cheery this morning, perhaps because you passed the memory test yesterday and can drive again. I'm glad that all of that is behind you and you can enjoy some peace of mind. I do hope that Spring has sprung where you live. Will you be able to see when the geese fly over like you did when you lived on the lake? Maybe now that you can drive, you and Dave can get back to your routine of having meals together. Enjoy the remainder of your day.

Maureen--plus--I think I my have a new Dr--It is like a miracle--Yes I passed the memory test #2---=Lordy Be-- They put 80 yr old people thru a lot-=-but--=I PASSED IT_-- LOL=-Happy bout that!--Good as always to hear from yu----Lynda
DeleteIt's Kathy. Yes, I believe we are older longer than we are younger - and I'm not sure if that's a good thing! Some days I feel like I'm older than old! Today in the mail we got an invitation from a funeral home to have lunch with them and learn about what they offer. That's a first for me! While I don't like thinking about that, I do remember when my parents pre-paid for their funerals and that made things a whole lot easier when it happened. They both died from a stroke - very suddenly! Well, on a happier note - I'm glad you're seeing signs of Spring. It's a beautiful day here today, in the 70's by this afternoon. Daisy and I will get in another short walk. I have to work up to my regular walking path but it's so nice to be able to walk even a short distance. Today is my stay-at-home-all-day day and Daisy is happy about that. I hope you have a good day!
ReplyDeleteLOL--So funny that the funeral home now invites us to plan the funeral now---must be our age--kinda sad eh??--LOL--Lynda
DeleteFunny that Funeral Home contacted you people!!---- They really had their nerve--Yes--I was SO SO happy to pass that 2nd memory test--I studied a lot for it!--Lynda--Yes, the dogs like it when we stay home with them--Lynda
ReplyDeleteI remember when my mom was older and belonged to a senior center - they took tours of places, assisted living places offered them to come for lunch, and they went to funeral homes, too, I believe. Always a plus to be prepared ahead of time. It's not morbid - it's a necessity! Mom had hers prepaid, my husband, and my cousin treated me to a prepaid niche outside here in Newark, it's very lovely, I even went and posed next to it. Now no one has to worry about me, as I am the last of my family.
DeleteOn a lighter note - wouldn't it be great if we could age backwards? Start out old, and progressively get younger? I would love that! :)
Marti
Hey Marti--Too bad we don't become young again eh??-- LOL--
DeleteHello, sis. I am back!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. Who are the man and lady in the background with all those wonderful grandchildren?
BMX biking was a very popular sport for quite awhile.
I went back to bed for a nap very early. NOW I am ready to get ater ;-)
About to go to the UPS store to do an Amazon return. While I was sleeping, 'Becca said she wanted me to take her somewhere. I let her know I could after that nap, but she hasn't answered yet.
Today will kinda be a relax and do not too much today. I overdid it yesterday with everything (floors, vacuuming, etc), by the evening I was really feeling sore. I know the physical therapy is helping, but I think I overdid those exercises, too. SIGH
You have such an attractive (and very dear to you) family. We are so blessed, aren't we?
Will check back again this evening, Lynda {{{HUGS}}} Love, Maggie.
We really are lucky to have a large good family--both of us!--Lynda
DeleteLOVE the blasts from the past. Yes, around here, the mornings are just non-stop: Jason up and prepped for the day, Miss Lilly out for her potty break, then breakfast, do dishes, laundry, prep for supper. The list goes on. But, best to keep moving.
ReplyDeletehugs and blessings

Days are busy---but tht is a good thing--LOL--Lynda-
DeleteMy day - up at 7:30 or so, work at 9:30, just 3 minutes from where I live, and got to leave early, at 12:30. Doc appt at 1:00 - found out that the pain I'm having in my left lower back and behind and into my leg is sciatica - must have hurt it at work lifting heavy typewriters and sewing machines. Went to the hospital to get x-rays, since I wanted proof, and then had to drop my car off to get an oil change. Home at 5. Tired.
ReplyDeleteMarti
Busy day Marti--- Sciatica is painful-Lynda
DeleteHi Lynda
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear that Spring has finally arrived at your house. Finally.
I like the words of wisdom.
Have a great day.
