Busy Bee but all Good!

We've been busy.  First, Daughter took her exam for state board for cosmetology.  This required travel, and a whole lot of waiting.  School paid for the exam, but not lodging nor the license (that was another $45.00).  I read my book, and crocheted cross bookmarks, and we did a little bit of sight seeing window shopping as well.

Our hotel was the most fanciest hotel we've had.  There was a doorbell (I'm told it's for hearing impaired), curtains that operated by a button to pull them up or put them down, and the largest TV I have ever watched TV on.  

Oh, she passed her exam.  Woohoo!  She has her license now.

Second, another daughter got me out of the house to take care of some errands.  Thankful for that.

Third, the car parts arrived, so that's been going on too.

Fourth, the baby blanket and booties were delivered.  It was a bit of a haul, but done.



We have had some foggy and beautiful mornings.  I hope this is a sign we'll all have a bountiful year.  Today we are told we'll get snow showers.

I just let our dog out for his morning bathroom break and run ( as he likes to go check my daughters' house and my father in laws house) and it was sleeting outside. Yesterday it was 60 degrees. UGH! However, I did find tulips and lilies sprouting up yesterday so it should not be long.
Carol, we had a 60 degree day yesterday but 40's today.

Been foggy here some mornings too. Can barely see the neighbor's house some mornings. Wind whipping up tonight. Sounds like the hounds of hades are outside the door.
I bet your trip and stay in the hotel was really fun, and congrats to your daughter for passing her exam. They're hard because of all the chemicals, so kudos to her for passing it.
Went to the VA neurologist yesterday. I thought I was having problems with vertigo but it came and went. They did several tests and determined I've been having TIAs. They put me on a baby aspirin to start, but I have an appointment with a VA neurological surgeon on the 30th to determine if I'm a good candidate for "routing out" (they said" the channel in my neck vertebrae. Not looking forward to that, but if the Lord brings you to it, He will bring you through it. I believe that.
So praying everyone has a great weekend and a safe one too. Remember to turn the clocks forward tonight, or is it back? I usually just look at my cell phone time and then match all the clocks in the house up to that. LOL
God bless.

RB Thanks for the clock reminder. I almost forgot!

Congratulations to your daughter! Exams like that are so nerve-wracking. I know she's relieved and probably ready to get out and put her new certification to good use.

Apples and Tomatoes Oh My!

  The early morning weather here has been downright chilly.  One morning it was 42 degrees.  Flower beds have been weeded.  The herb garden is next in line, but I do need to figure out what to do with all the rosemary plants I planted in the actual vegetable garden.  I have not mastered keeping them alive all winter indoors.  They will not survive the winter if left outside. Did any of my blog writing followers locate a better "blog" platform online?  Just curious if anyone is moving from blogger. 

Under the Weather ~ What's Growing?

  I have not been around in blogland much, due to being under the weather after I pushed myself way to far one day.  I have to remember we cannot do it all in one day.  Thank goodness for teas and tinctures, and healing foods (and rest).  We are feeling better. As for our blogs being used for advertising on many websites, and so forth (I can't see any other reason for the source of views: howstuffworks, dominospizza, mayoclinic {not the blog readers interested in my actual blog}) the numbers continue to climb.  I have not found a way to "opt" out either.  If any of you find a new way to avoid this, blog elsewhere, find a new platform etc, please be sure to share.   If your blog has ads, you are are not going to complain, ha ha!  You are probably making a bucko-bucks with all these visitors to your blog. Okay, back to the update post . . .

16 Weeks Until Christmas

  It's not hard to believe that we are traveling closer to the winter holidays.  I'm trying to focus on enjoying every single day until then, but I am fitting in a few snippets of holiday preparing.  Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year.  It's hard to believe it's the last day of August. I have not yet gotten rid of the links to all the advertisers using my blog posts, but again, still working on it. However, my profile has gone from my blog, and while I am in settings, it is not able to add as a "gadget" to the blog.  Weird things are happening.   Google had a data breach recently as well, so gmail users were advised to change passwords.  Not sure what else is going on, but just in case you are wondering why my "profile" is not on my blog any longer.   Okay, back to the Christmas countdown post . . .
