ROCKTOBER
Best of luck in the post-season to our Colorado Rockies baseball team!!! Ok. Today’s a day to don the black tee, climb up to the mountains, greet some old and young friends, kick back and listen ...
I am so right-handed....
Had surgery on my right hand yesterday to release the trigger finger. Am supposed to keep it elevated today so typing is relegated to hunt-and-peck with the left. Not an easy task for me. The ...
So far....
We have both seen the cardiologist. My appointment was like: listen to the heart, check the meds list and a conversation about my husband who had been in two days earlier. Doc wanted to be sure...
Peace, Joy, Too Much Fun and a Miracle

Two out of four
Four doctor appointments done. I passed two of them. Yesterday the dermatologist didn’t even take out his can of freezing gas. Once over with the magnifying glass and “see you in a year”. Oka...
It's a slow process
For the past 6 weeks I have been semi-seriously trying to lose weight. No fancy (expensive) diet plan. Just cutting back on the groceries I consume, and being more careful about the food I eat....

Peace
Our friend John went home to be with his Lord overnight. I pray for peace for all of us left behind. RIP, John. We’ll see you on the other side.

Signs of the times

We got home early afternoon yesterday. The trip went fine. Our son and his wife moved here to the Denver area over 30 years ago and we made a few trips here from our home in North Dakota. In ...
Big Sky Country
Here we are up in north east Montana, marveling in the lushness of the rolling hills. The winter wheat fields are covered with the promise of a bumper crop. The sky is blue-blue-blue with puffy...
