    Good morning. Foggy so far, supposed to go up to the 80s today.
    Off to painting class.
    Have a great day, everyone! :)
    Hello Vix
    Forecast high for today is in the 50s and so far it is a dreary looking day, oh well they can not all be winners.

    Yesterday was warm and I had the curtain drawn over half of the living room window to keep the heat out. I was more or less successful as the room hit 75 degrees.

    Enjoy the Day
    Roger

    Hi all.
    Went to the shipping store today to mail back one dress via Fedex and 2 dresses via UPS. Did some exercise and laundry at home and visited my grandson for a few minutes.
    Roger, I hope you've gotten your results today, and I hope they're good.
    Irene, hope the pt is working for you.
    Hi Jo.
    Have a good evening, everyone. :)

    Good morning;
    It is has been raining since yesterday afternoon.
    Sophie has been sneezing a lot. The vet gave me some very expensive medicine, but it made her vomit. So now I am giving her 1/4 of a tablet of Claritin. I hope it works.
    Vix-I am guessing that the dress hunt continues. :)
    Roger-I hope you got good news from your test results.
    Irene-I still have a mound in my front yard from last year when I had a tree cut down. I am still deciding what to do in that area, talk about procrastination. ;)
    Today is my day to go into work late. So far I have dust mopped, vacuumed, cleaned the bathrooms and washed the kitchen floor.
    Enjoy your weekend! :)

    Good morning.
    Jo, you get so much done so early! I need to do all that today. :wink: I think I've decided on a dress...I have one in a shimmery smoke color and one in navy, almost the same dress...It's a cold shoulder column style dress with ruching on the side. I'll try them both on one more time to be sure. Hope Sophie is feeling better.
    Hi Roger and Irene. Hope you're both feeling better.
    Rainy here today.
    Happy Saturday, everyone. :)

    Hi
    Some chances of rain throughout the weekend with the heavier rain Tomorrow. It is 52degrees outside and I turned the heat on to take the chill off of the rooms. I still do not have the results. Is that good or bad, I do not know. I called the doctors office again, Thursday, I was told I should get a phone call Tuesday and that the results have not been read. :(:(

    I could hear some big raindrops hitting the window AC overnight as I was trying to sleep.

    I'm not surprised that the yard is taking a lot to make nice looking. I hope Yours comes out great. Hard work deserves a reward.

    The PT is still helping ?

    Hello Vix
    Alas, if You read my status report nothing yet I sure hope I get results on the 7th. Considering that the testing was on April 30, I have to wonder what the hold up is.

    Free return labels I hope.

    Hello Joanne
    What a shame that the expensive medication had the effect. I hope the Claritin works too.

    I am bummed out about the results delay.

    You are making me feel tired and I just got up a little while ago with all that You have done already.

    Cheers

    Hi
    It is 58 degrees outside and raining. We had rain showers until Saturday afternoon followed by overnight rain which is still falling. I did not bother looking out during the overnight hours as I could hear the rain hitting the window AC unit. Once again I turned the heat on to take the chill off of the rooms. I was told I should get a phone call Tuesday and that the results have not been read. :(:(

I think it is going to be awhile before my yard will be nice again . HI Vix and Jo

    Hi all.
    Rained here all night and all day today. We had a great day despite the rain. Met with our children and my son's future in-laws at the winery where he will be married. It's a beautiful venue. We all came back here for cheesecake and coffee after. I made an amaretto cheescake with lemon and almond crust. It was delicious. :smile:
    Also had early mother's day for me, so the kids can go to their in-laws next week.
    Hope everyone had a great weekend. :)

    Hi
    It is 53 degrees outside and the rain has ended. The Lawn is looking very ragged, My brother plans to mow even though it is still wet from the rain.

    I believe the Sunday rain was over a inch, not heavy just steady.

    Good Morning Irene
    I hope it is a good sign, It could also be that the doctor is overloaded. Even a follow up appointment is a ways out. The one I made when I was released from the hospital is May 24 :(

    I know You are champing at the bit to be done with the PT, I do not blame You. It likely will be a while, thinks need to settle and grow.

    Hi Vix
    It sounds like You had a good day despite the rain. I tend to like the Graham Cracker & Butter Crust. When my brother makes a cheesecake the crust goes on the bottom and the ring mold forms the crustless sides.

    That sounds like a good way to have Mothers Day for all.

    I do sort of wish the weather and temperatures would level out. Cold and rainy, then dry and warm and then back to colder. Is it me or is the weather freaky this year ?

    I hope Your day goes to plan and is enjoyable

    Hi
    It is 58 degrees outside and 68 degrees in the living room, I blame that on the heat being off since Monday Morning.

    Thunderstorms or maybe just storms this later today into the overnight hours and this mornings forecast showed 0% chance of rain for Wednesday and Thursday. That is if the Local Cable News channel News12 is right. If anyone is interested here is a link to their site.

    Wish me Luck, I'll be calling to see if the test results are available today.

    Hi Joanne
    There is rain in the forecast for later and so far outside the window the sky is covered by clouds making the day a bit dismal looking.

    I love a Good Cheesecake, Who doesn't ?

    So far I just do not seem to have bounced back as well as I had hoped. I feel as if I have a slight improvement daily but much slower than in the past. Is it old age catching up with me or something else. If no big improvement by the Regular Doctors next visit at the end of the month I'll see what he has to say.

    Congratulations on finding some money

    Roger, I'm not really that busy...Tuesdays are full...they tire me out. Some days I do nothing! I try to keep busy, because I usually feel better if I don't just sit around. :wink: I'm glad you're feeling a little better.
