Gayle, I know you're keeping an eye on Gary. Whatever it is, I hope it passes and quickly. It has to worry you.

Diana....I'm right here. Just been a little busy. I check in and read posts and then I'm done...lol.

I wish I had someone to go to lunch with, but everyone works or are too busy. Don't really need to spend money anyway, I guess.

It's been really pretty here too. I just love this time of year, makes me feel so at peace. I can work outside or just sit and watch the dogs and be happy. Sunday Rick and I went to Mom's house and I trimmed the shrub under the kitchen window and the line of divider shrubs out back that divide the properties. The neighbor came out and helped too so it was a really nice day...windy, but nice. I got sunburned a little bit and a blister on the palm of my hand. Just not use to raking.

Yesterday I trimmed the shrubs here at home and put out some of the lawn decorations that once belonged to my Mom. I wish it was time to plant some flowers, but I'm still a little nervous about it. Still going to work up the ground and have to go buy some dirt for my yard planters. I've not been excited about it for a couple years, but this year...for some reason, I'm ready and excited.

We've also put on hold looking for a house for Ricky. He has finally realized what it takes to live alone and it's not easy. So he is saving more and waiting until the right home that he can afford comes along. His truck is needing a little bit of work, nothing major, but it just kind of hit home that these things will pop up now and then and he really needs to have more money in savings. I'm so glad he realizes it now instead of later and then lose a house. I think we did a good job with him, just takes that independent mind of his time to realize what it takes to live on his own.

I'm hoping to go to an auction tomorrow evening. They have some Sheffeld Strawberry and Creme enamalware that I'm interested in. Not sure why....lolol, but Mom had some beautiful pots and I would just like to had to the collection. Here is a link to show you what they look like: http://www.etsy.com/listing/95085754...ries-and-cream I have 4 different size pans with lids, but don't have any pots. So I've been looking. What a thing to collect...takes up room, but I think they are lovely. This is a picture of what is at the auction: http://www.auctionzip.com/Full-Image/1424591/fp25.cgi
