NOT ENOUGH HOURS IN THE DAY!!
THIS WILL BE A SHORT JOURNAL..LOL!!! YEAH, LIKE I AM EVER SHORT ON WORDS. BREVITY IS NOT MY STRONG SUIT. I SAY IT WILL BE SHORT NOT BECAUSE I HAVE DONE NOTHING BUT BECAUSE I HAVE DONE TOO MUCH AND I AM EXHAUSTED.I HAD A VERY RESTLESS NIGHT AND ENDED UP GETTING UP AT 4:00 AND JUST DID SOME QUIET WORK LIKE ORGANIZING MY SCRAPBOOKING STUFF, CLEANING OUT MY DESK, FILING BILLS ( FUN). ONCE HUBBY WAS UP I STARTED TO CLEAN HOUSE!! wE ALSO RETURNED OUR LEASED JEEP AFTER FOUR YEARS SO WE HAD TO GIVE THAT A CLEANING. NEXT THING I KNEW IT WAS 10:00 AND I HAD A COFFEE DATE FOR 10:30 AND I WAS STILL IN MY OLD SWEATSUIT. WELL, LET ME TELL YOU I HUSSELED MY BUNS AND GOT READY.I PICKED UP MY COFFEE DATE RIGHT ON TIME. SHE IS ACTUALLY A MEMBER OF DS BUT MY HUBBY USE TO WORK WITH HERS AND WE EVENTUALLY FIGURED THIS OUT. SO AFTER TWO YEARS OF ON LINE WE DECIDED TO MEET. WE SPENT TWO AND A HALF HOURS JUST GABBING UP A STORM. WE COULD NOT BELIEVE HOW THE TIME HAD PASSED. SHE IS A LOVELY LADY AND I AM SO GLAD I HAD THE CHANCE TO SPEND TIME WITH HER. I HOPE WE CAN DO IT AGAIN.AFTER THAT I WENT AND GOT 8 POTTED PLANTS THAT I NEED FOR MY PLANTERS, I WILL NEED MORE BUT THAT IS A START. THEN I CAME HOME AND STARTED TO PAINT OUR NEW FENCED IN AREA. I PAINTED UNTIL 7:30. MY BACK WAS KILLING ME BUT IT IS DONE. NOW TOMORROW WILL BE THE LAYING OF THE LANDSCAPE FABRIC, LUGGING AND RACKING THE GRAVEL OVER IT AND MOVING PATIO STONES. PLUS I HOPE TO GET SOME PLANTERS DONE...YEAH, WISHFUL TJINKING. I SUPPOSE IT'S POSSIBLE IF THERE IS AN EXTRA FIVE HOURS IN THE DAY. I HOPE TO BE ABLE TO FIND A BEFORE PICTURE OF THE AREA AND THEN DO AN AFTER ONE.OUR FRIEND WITH THE STROKE HAS BEEN MOVED OUT OF ICU BUT HE IS NO BETTER. THEY HAVE DISCOVERED THAT HIS BRAIN IS SWOLLEN BUT THEY HAVE NOT A CLUE AS TO WHY!!! I AM GETTING REALLY WORRIED ABOUT THE SITUATION. IT WAS A WEEK YESTERDAY AND NO IMPROVEMENT. AND WHAT IS CAUSING THE SWELLING AND WILL THIS RESULT IN ANOTHER STROKE, WILL IT GO AWAY, IS IT TREATABLE??? WAY TOO MANY UNANSWERED QUESTIONS!!WELL, GUYS, I HAVE TO CALL IT QUITS FOR THE NIGHT. I WILL HOPEFULLY FIND A SPARE MOMENT TOMORROW TO DO JOURNALS. BUT IF NOT BEAR WITH ME AND I WILL EVENTUALLY SHOW UP.BE WELL. DEBBIE

Boy you are a busy bee. Reminds me of someone I know. To bad my body can\'t keep up with my mind anymore. We wiat all year for spring and summer and then we brealk our backs for 90 days of gardens and mowing and hard work. Wait I should not be discouraging. Besides I have 12 flower gardens done and now it is time to plant the vege gardens but first I am going to the lake for 2 days, oh yah to work out there getting everything ready for the summer. I am really tired and like you am not sleeping very well. Get that gardening done so you can enjoy. xo
Hi Debbie,
I am very sorry to hear your friend is still having major issues. I will pray for him, and keep us posted on his condition. Don\'t give up hope sometimes miracles do happen. I know of a girl who got hit by a car when she was in the road helping a stranger (a girl) she saw get thrown out of a car and left in the road. Another car came and hit both of them, killing the girl in the street and almost killing my friend. The doctors said she was brain-dead and wanted to have her life support disconnected, but her long-time boyfriend said he couldn\'t do that yet. She recovered and she is doing very well. She had reconstructive surgery and she recovered almost 100%. So don\'t give up all hope, sometimes a miracle happens.
Sounds like you are working like crazy, make sure you don\'t overdo! The season is just starting, you don\'thave to do it all in one day or two. Take your time and don\'t get yourself all worn out....take care of yourself, Girl!
post pictures, I love seeing your improvement projects. They are inspiring!

AND YOU TELL ME I\'M BUSY?? i SURE WISH I\'D BEEN GETTING AS MUCH DONE AS YOU HAVE, MAKES ME SO JEALOUS~SIGH.
Sorry your friend is not showing improvement, swelling in the brain is never good. I\'m sure they are giving him meds that are supposed to help that go down but they may have to do some kind of drain if the meds don\'t help. Humans are such fragile things yet so resilliant it is amazing. Hugs and loves
My, my, what a busy little thing you have been! I wish I could get done just half of all the things you accomplish!!
How did that happen? I was just typing away & all the sudden the computer winked at me & here I am!! WEIRD!
Now where was I??!! LOL
I\'m sorry your friend isn\'t getting any better. I hope there will be improvement soon.
I look forward to the before & after pictures. You always do such a good job at all you do.
Take care & I hope you get some sleep soon.
hugs Cathy
