Hello all,

Thought I'd check in and see what's happening. Kitty has left her paradise home.  Sounds like a move North closer to family is a good idea.  Mine are 20 minutes away. Ray, grandson started preschool today and was so excited....mask and all  

Kitty...Sorry to hear of your back pain. Hope you are getting some relief. And Susan with her poor knee. Knock on wood....my back has been ok as long as I don't work too hard. Easier said than done. Glad we are still smoke free...and grateful lungs are ok during this covid time.  

How is Finn doing?  Bella is fighting ear infections all the time. Getting old and she doesn't get too far away from me. Her hearing is gone and her eyesight is poor. 

Kitty...wow your husband is thinking of building your house!!!  More power to him.  I'm very impressed.

my husband is 12 yrs younger then I.....so still energetic and in good health....but building may be a modular with him directing etc....he is going to walk a piece of property today with a realtor/owner of the lot....I will wait at home...he is going to take pictures....we have driven by and I liked the location and view etc....the back? well went to a surgeon yesterday and he wants to do surgery....showed me the where and the why....and I will go to my primary Dr. and get his opinion....I did like the Dr but the surgery would be done about an hour away and of course no one could come to visit because of the virus....some hard decisions to make...he wants to do it soon before it gets worse...and if is right in the middle of shopping for a home or land etc....glad you are doing well and so glad you stopped in.....and yes nice to stay smoke free....it has been 13 yrs for me now.....

well he is not building a house we saw a house today and made an offer....we hope our offer is the best...several showings to many people in the next two days...it just came on the market...lovely....wish us luck please....

Good luck on the house Kitty.  Surgeon isn't making money unless he does surgery.  I'm not there and I'm not you so it's up to you.

We are going on a picnic and then on to the farm to help my brother and his wife for a short time, granddaughter and Brandy dog are going with us.

Visited my daughter and our grands yesterday, they seem to be doing well. 

Have a great day.

Ernie

conferring with my primary DR this morning via virtual visit  and then will make a decision.about the surgery ...am considering it...hoping it would stop the damage to my nerves but am really thinking about this house.....we are so ready to get settled in our own space...hopefully before winter.....sounds wonderful that you can spend time with granddaughter.....enjoy

Morning Kitty.  Glad house hunting is going well.

We had a good picnic.  Wife and granddaughter spent most of their time with my sister in law, she is dying of lung cancer.

Got a large tractor tire from the farm tractor getting it's tires changed.  I will probably make a flower garden in the tire like my mom had decades ago.

Walking late this morning because of rain.

Have a good day.

someone else got "our" house....looking at another today.....so disappointed.....scheduled surgery for Oct 1....

Good morning Ernie....hope all is well....we are looking at another house today....on a dirt road that we used to live on....it is built recently and looks like a barn....big  possibilities....it is on 5 acres....the inside is started but not finished....has a 4 car garage....and we have one car....one bedroom kitchen...living room and full bath already finished which is big enough for us for now....also private and even has chicken coop....might try chickens next spring if we buy it....will keep you posted....

Morning Kitty.  Glad you are excited about your house hunting.  I got to sleep late because of a power outage, so got up late also.

Shut off the main breaker and hooked up our generator.

Rain on and off yesterday so didn't get to much done.  Went to the pharmacy and picked up a prescription and stopped at walmart

for some new reading glasses.  Broke ones I had putting undercoat on the Subaru.

More rain storms today but looks like Brandy and I will get our walk in before next one reaches us.

Have a great day.

Ernie

glad you got to sleep in but sorry you lost your power......we made an offer on the house....over the asking price but it had only been on the market for one day....so there might be more.....
