Brrrr and My Quilt.

Good Morning! It is a great -14 outside and expected windchill around -25 to 45 below. Yesterday I took the electric blanket off my bed. I wanted to use this old quilt I have. It is Dresden Dish Pattern. It is done on large off white sugar bags. It was put together on a sewing machine. It has orange circles in the middle of the pattern. It isn't beautiful; it isn't perfect and I think I love it because it reminds me of me. When I saw it I had to have it. I didn't see in blue ink info about sugar company until later at home.
We all are not perfect but we can strive for perfection. We can be useful even when we are old and have lived awhile.
Count your Blessings- Enjoy who you are! God Bless and ((Hugs))

You can't hybernate all the time.

Today it was -2 when I awoke. I needed to get some groceries,some laundry done, and vanity won out. I needed to get my haircut. I called a friend and cold or no cold I did what I wanted to get done. It is easy to go from house to warm car .
I even mailed out bills and tax payment(ouch). I sent my son's birthday gift also. They say it will be colder tomorrow morning but I hope to stay warm and indoors. I dressed warm and I was determined to accomplish some thing besides sitting in the house. Living where I live I should expect this type of weather though I don't have to like it. I guess old age is catching up with me. Have a great next few days and count all your blessings. Hugs to you all. Joyce

Difference of a week.

Last week when we had to travel the roads were clear and no problem. Today we have 6 inches of snow and wind.
I haven't gone anywhere since I came home on Friday. The site of the implant is hurting less and less with each day.
My neighbors have been soo helpful. I had fresh fried fish brought over. Another went to the store and got me some milk and my mail from the post office. I am really being a hermit. I haven't had but one brief weak spell. I didn't hit the activator because it didn't last that long. The weather man said after the snow we are going to get cold and have a weekend below zero. You all know I will stay in my house. It is amazing what we don't need to do when it gets cold and snowey. I wish the implant area would be healed so with all this time I could get more done. Have a great week! Stay warm and if you are in warmth ENJOY!. ((Hugs)) :=)

PTL

I am home not feeling too bad. I needed to do something so I started to treat this as a mini vacation. Eating out and spending one night in Hospital's Motel. Everyone was so nice. My son and I had a fine time together. He kept giving me a "hard time" just to lighten the day. Thank you all for your prayers . I had acess to computer Thursday night and was able to get your engouragement. God Bless. Joyce
