Quick Update

I am not sick and I am not depressed.  I am just super busy!

Well, that is not entirely true.  I have been sick, but I am better now.  I had diverticulitis again  :-(  However, thanks to antibiotics I am better.  Thank God.  Nuff said about that.

The busy hasn't stopped!  Guess that is what happens when you have nearly 20 acres, right?  Steve and I have been working on the barn/soon to be shop.  We got all the plywood up on the walls;  48' x 30' long and wide x 12 foot high.  LOTS of plywood and lots of work - but we did it.  And yes, I said Steve and I.  

Steve got the shop wired.  He has worked evenings and weekends to get it done, but we finished it 2 days ago - right before he left to go to Houston.  I did help him a bit by cutting wires and twirling them.  Yes, I said twirling... what else would you call it?  He bought the paint for the walls, the sprayer, and has the stain for the floor.  He wants it all done by this weekend.  I am not thinking that is possible, but we're gonna try!  Lol...  

In the meantime, my brother had another heart attack.  He is 42 ; he was born in '69, so that makes him 42, right?  He goes in for some kind of heart surgery Friday.  He doesn't know what is being done;  he got a note from the VA to check into a hotel the day before, get some blood work done and then check into the VA hospital for heart surgery on Friday morning.  No more explanation than that.  Socialized medicine here we are.  Nice.  So I will be at the hospital waiting to see how he does and I have no idea what to plan for.  Wish us luck.

Also our daughter-in-law has surgery the same day in California.  Say prayers for both of them, please?

Finally, I am still working on that quilt.  I am close to being done, but not there yet.  I call it the quilt from... Singapore.  And if you believe that - I have some ocean front property here in Oklahoma to sell you... lol...

And finally, we are having 20 people here for Thanksgiving!!  WOWSERS!  I am getting ready for the crowd - by moving out for the week!  LOL... oh you know better than that!  I am excited!  Can't wait for the fun!  I am so glad to be back home - and better yet to HAVE a home!  Thank you Jesus for that.

Off to bed, pictures to come as soon as I can get my energy back and load them.  Today I am just dropping in to say hi and I miss ya!

Have a great weekend!
