A little of this and that

 Today is my twin ( non identical) daughters 14th birthday. I will see them in about a week. Time sure flies!

The birds aren’t the only thing that gets in the feeder. 

The turtles are swimming around at Parklands. I got to swim in my pool today too! Got the medical okay now that my incision is healed. Yay! I love water.

This is one of my favorite pictures of Ollie. I wonder if he will play soccer. His daddy enjoys soccer. He’s only 3 so it would be awhile .

This is my grandma, my moms mom and grandma 

So cool to have this photo. 

That’s all for tonight folks, enjoy your weekend!

Adventures

 We went to a theme park with the little one today. Last year he was too small for the rides but this year he’s having a blast. 

We bought seasons passes so we can come and go as we wish. Sometimes it’s just good to spend a couple hours and not get too tired. I’m still having some residual pain from my surgery so I think I’ll check with the dr soon. I can function mostly it’s intermittent sharp pain by my belly button and it comes out of the blue. I’m just ready to be done with it all!

Anyways I’m home resting now. I’m healing but sometimes the process leaves us tired for awhile. 

Sunday was a good Fathers Day. We had a nice meal and went to a park. The guys fished and the kids played. The sunset was pretty!

Saturday we went to theKentucky Railroad museum and Thomas the Train was there. Oh my but the little one was excited! We are just living a life of adventure!

One of my sons is moving to Florida with his family close to where my friend Terri is ! That probably means we will visit even more as time goes by. I love it there and look forward to our next trip in January. 

Monday

 Today was much cooler than usual for mid June but we did take a ride and stop at Lincoln State Park. I wore a hooded sweatshirt but it was very pretty.

There is also a living farm where people dress like pioneers. This is the area president Lincoln spent part of his growing up days. Times sure were different then and work was hard. 

I’m very sleepy right now but I’m doing better as time goes by . I’m able to do more for myself so slowly but surely I’ll get there!

Sundays sermon was on patience. I need more of that. 

Restoration

As you draw me near I will learn of you,

In fields of gold and skies of blue.

Beside the still water there is restoration,

Through your quiet revelation.

Happy number 3

 Today our little grandson Oliver turns 3. He’s extra special. His mommy and daddy prayed for many years for this little child. He’s just so cute and fun and entertaining! We love him so much! Happy Birthday sweet Oliver 

Lovely Wednesday Evening

 What a beautiful evening. I was feeling pretty good so we went to Wednesday night church and afterward walked at Parklands. The sun was bright orange my pictures don’t do it justice. My “Survivor” tshirt came in the mail today. I have a lot to celebrate . Each time there are more wildflowers at the park, so pretty to see and to walk in the cool of the evening. I’m really enjoying this part of the year more since I had surgery because it bothered me thinking about it . Anticipating something you don’t look forward to is almost worse than the actual event. Reminds me of the saying “ Don’t let tomorrow’s worries rob you of todays joys. “ God gives us grace when we need it.

When we got home we noticed our yucca plants in bloom now. Lovely evening !

Country walks and flowers

K

It’s a beautiful time of the year and I’m starting to feel well enough to walk up to the farms or around the neighborhood.

There are flowers everywhere. I planed some flowers and did crafts yesterday at the oncology place. They are having cancer survivor week for everyone going through treatments or finished with them and they had free crafts gifts and info. I painted a cross with craft paint.

Today we went shopping then to lunch. I wore my flower cap. My wigs scratch my head but the turbans feel soft and comfy. My hairs so short , kind of like a short burr so I don’t want to go without a head covering yet. It will be interesting to see what grows, curly , straight, brown or white. Before this it was mixed with a lot of silver on the front and sides.

Enjoy each day because it’s a gift. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery but today is a present! Enjoy!
