    Oh Rebecca how wonderful..
    At least you got to see him if not physically, but a picture and know he is ok.. why he hasn't contacted you is beyond me..
    I just hung out here with Alfie today .. will do laundry tomorrow and maybe run over to the mall and return a few things.

    It was emotional to see his face! I haven't a clue as to the why of anything he's done, or not done. Today I have a 6 lb box to send to him on Monday for Halloween! Plus wrote him a long letter. Hope the 7 magazines, brownies and candy is appreciated.🙏👍🏻⚓💖

    I am curious, have you had to up your water intake since using the TENS unit?

    A few years ago, I discovered that one way I can tell if I'm a bit dehydrated is that my hands look a little bit wrinkly ... and if I drink a tall glass of water, my hands plump out again.

    Like right now. We were so busy with the bees at our bee group, I didn't drink much this morning at all. So my hands are a bit wrinkly. But I'm drinking now and they should plump up and be smooth again shortly.

    I also use a Vit E cream on my hands and arms, mostly because of cat and garden scratches, and the skin specialist who saw me asked me if I used a cream and commented on how smooth and soft the skin is on my hands. :)

    That's a combination of my Vit E cream and hydration. :)

    Had my biennial bath this morning. :p I will probably have another one before the cruise. Lots of Olatum bath oil and loads of scrubbing with a loofah mitt. Feels lovely now. Manicure. Half a pedicure, but I'm waiting until near the time for varnishing toenails. No one will see them, but it's a bit of fun. Last cruise, I wasn't able to swim, because of the weather and the swell, (although I did try to go one day when it was closed), but the Med may be flatter. The pool is heated. Hoping I can get a chance. Swimming was a great pleasure on the previous ships, part of my holiday. I'm a good swimmer, proper hat, goggles, lengths. I used to go at 7 am and do 45 mins.

    Lovely day here.

    All about bees ...

    If these two links work, they're videos of our attempts (our mentor and group's attempts) to hive a swarm:

    Looking for a queen:

    Unfortunately that queen didn't make it:

    So the next attempt was to merge two swarms (that's my husband standing in the back):

    Unfortunately that queen didn't make it either. So now we're onto the next plan and our hive is staying overnight with our mentor.

    I am currently in our RV on our daughter’s property. DH is in a care facility and working on improving his health. We have an apartment that I like. I hope we can be there together soon. Keeping my fingers crossed.

    Beth ~ So glad to hear that your mom has been moved closer to you! I can well understand that it has been a long, complicated experience for you and your husband! Happy apple picking and pie making.

    Oh my gosh, Beth! You have been through every kind of loop. <3 Sending best wishes.

    PS Can I have some of your apples?

    Pleased with myself for waking up from a nap and starting the dreaded tax return process. Aaaarrrrgggghhhh! I am a procrastinator par excellence, but, in the end, the putting it off becomes more agonising than actually doing it.
    Of course, when I do get around to it, it's simple and easy. :o:| So, I've done the worst bit, calculating my Amazon earnings. Our tax year runs from April to March, which is different to the US one, so I have to take it month by month. Fortunately, they have good records.

    Love you loads, Heather UK xxxxxxxx

    OMGosh, Rebecca! I had no idea you hadn't heard from your son! I'm so sorry. That is heartbreaking to say the least. But what a wonderful surprise for you.

    Barbie, your backyard is lovely!

    Another beautiful day in the neighborhood. Sunny and blue and warm and leaves and all that goes with it here in fall in MN.

    Love and Blessings, Carla, in MN
