ahh Paper chains...my kids made them every year....I didn't like them much but the kids did.....and today sunny and 55 already.....hearing  test today ..I think I am fine but we will see...DH is already wearing hearing aids....and he still can't hear me....I think when a wife speaks husbands ears shut down....LOL  have a good day

Morning Kitty.  Warmer morning 52.  Still trying to straighten out the lawn.  Probably plant grass seed for next week's rain.

Had pizza with daughter and grands last eve.  Great time except Brandy and their new Border Collie trying to get along.

She is still a puppy and nips at Brandy's legs if she can get away with it.

Hope the hearing test went well.  My hearing isn't that great but don't remember the last test.

Enjoy the nice day.

Ernie

we are expecting to get up to 80 today.....hope it happens.....I think anyway....our closing date has moved up to Sept. 30  so maybe the floors and painting will be done so that we can move in mid Oct....I would be into 2 wks after surgery so that would be good....and.....my hearing test.....?  I passed with flying colors  the tester was very impressed.....considering that I am a little old lady...LOL....and this morning I twisted my ankle....just to add to the "fun".....

Morning Kitty.  Sad you twisted your ankle.  Glad your closing is going well.

I'm still working on the lawn.  I have to get some grass seed for parts of the lawn.

Got some more blocks for my little retaining wall, need more.

Woke early again, just head out on our walk early, 54 here this mrn.

Have a good day.

Ernie

and I got up later and it is 61 here.....ended up going for an xray of the ankle to make sure it wasn't broken....and it is just soft tissue damage which takes longer to heal ...am back in the wheelchair for a couple of days....at least it will not delay the back surgery....if it had been broken it might have done that...  at least the sun shines....and your grass will grow.....

Morning Kitty.  Rained a little here last eve, been a while.  I have to get some grass seed down before we get a lot of rain.

Went to my daughter's yesterday and replaced the garage door springs.  Had to repair a split in the door.  One of my grandsons

pushed the button with both springs broken and it caused the metal to rip.  In the end I didn't get it to work.  The motor won't

run, just goes into error mode.  I will figure it out another day, was getting late and I can look up the problem on internet.

Sorry you hurt your ankle with your back already hurt.  I've never had a broken bone, would like that to continue.

Have a good day.

Rain?  Ct. has not had much in the month of Sept....less then usual daughters lawn is turning brown....ankle is feeling much better....I'm sure after the back surgery they will want me up walking fast....so glad the ankle won't hurt when I do that....

Morning Kitty.  Glad your ankle is feeling better.  Like that new song "The House Won't Fall if the Bones Are Good".

I got stuff to work on the lawn and car but didn't do much yesterday.  Looked up some ideas to try on my daughter's

garage door.

Looks like we got a little more rain during the night but should be dry enough for me to plant grass seed later in the day.

Have a good day.

Ernie

glad the "bones are good".....we had a small amount of rain last night...but Ct. is at high risk for wildfires......don't ever remember Ct being in that situation before...today is cloudy...hope it rains a lot more....no agenda for our day....maybe I can dream something up........

Morning Kitty.  Got some grass seed in but need more.  Won't get it in before the rain.

Starting at 8 AM.  We will just barely get our walk in.  Half inch to two.

Closing on your house tomorrow and then back surgery, busy.

I'm away from doctors until blood test in January.  Trying to get my glucose readings down

without one of my expensive powerful meds, not there yet.

Have a good day.
