One week between surgeries I waited a week in between amputations of my toes on my left and right feet. The left foot was done first on Aug. 21, 2018, followed by the right foot on Aug. 28. The incisions on the first foot were given time to heal. I was expected to get up…

Response to week 8 challenge: Glasses and stemware
This was a good challenge. I got it done in one afternoon. While all the glasses were in the dishwasher (the ones on the top shelf hadn’t been used in a long time and were dusty!), I cleaned the birdhouses and brass pitcher and platter above the cupboards.
Wow, have you tried Airbnb?
I know some people who were unable to get rooms at big-name hotels because they were all booked up.

My little boy
Yes, I am the crazy cat lady! I admitted it a long time ago. I am the person who stops whatever I am doing to pat a cat or play with them … no matter what! One funny story … of many … While I was still in the hospital for physical therapy at Russell…
Easter is Sunday, April 21, 2019
I scored the best deal ever on this 30-inch Peter Rabbit stuffy at CVS! I had $10 in rewards cash plus 20% off any item plus 35% off total order. Instead of $22.99 it only cost me $7 and some change! It’s not online on CVS! And I can’t find it on Amazon! So you…
