Good Morning,Kathy. A brighter morning. No rain but a nice bright sun and 779. Been staying in the house playing nursemaid. That purple stuff has gone down his leg even to the ankle....purple people eater. It is a worry. I hope they call and get him scheduled for the Cat Scan so they can figure out what is going on.How are you doing? Have you been out and around? Is the weather good? My BG 102 so happy with that. Sparky seems to be going through D ok. He is strong good sense of humor. You have a good day. You are always in my thoughts. HUGS,Reed

I was watching the President trying not to laugh as he gave him the medal. I should have told Reed garlic is good for you. actually I don't think he likes it.

did you see we're getting Gary Scheiner on the video chat Friday? I'm guessing that may be one reason we're getting so many new members. I'm trying to help doris figure out on her computer why she didn't get the last video chat. It would make my week, no good news from NJ.

Good Morning,Kathy. Getting ready for TOPS. It is dreary here and looks like more rain. As I told Marie I had a crazy dream. Someone kept waking me up and giving me a garlic clove...what was that all about? Russ has KEMATOMA not Melanoma. He now waits for Cat Scan. Of coyrse he has it in his head no COUMADAN a STROKE, With all that is going on I do not know whether I am coming or going.lol. How are things with you. You get to the Y? Did he come to put in your A/C. Pension checks tomorrow.YEAH!!! Lol. Take good care of yourself and have a good day. HUGS,Reed

Good Evening,Kathy. Russ got the word wrong. It is KEMATOMA not Melanome. He now has to have a specialized Cat Scan. Being off COUMADAN for a week or more he is worried he will have a STROKE. Tom took the day off. He has been here 6 days. I will be so happy when I can write happy things again. Still Raining. Good for the gardens. I see Boy Dylan got the Freedom Medal. TOPs tomorrow. Werre you able to get out and about today? Take good care of yourself. I care. HUGS,Reed

Hi Kathy- I just added a comment to Lots' post. I had no idea she had all those problems. As far as Kona is concerned. Esther might try putting him in a small space ( like the bathroom ), & leaving him in there with his litter until he uses it. Even if it takes all day. He will be without her companionship and left all alone. She could do it right after returning home after a sleepover. She shouldn't talk to him when she checks the litter box, unless he has used it. Cats are very smart, as I am sure you already know. Give it a try. Cat

Good Morning,Kathy. The headline in our paper says it all....BERYL SMASHES ST.AUGUSTINE. Boy did we get the wind and the rain. Smashed against the house and windows. Lull now but more coming. They cancelled all the Memorial Day events. It reminded me 68 years ago I was in the Navy .Russ turning more purple. Never saw anything like it. He sees the doctor tomorrow. He cannot walk well either without the walker. No barbecue we will have to have it inside.How are things with you? I hope well. Anything planned for the holiday? Take good care of yourself. HUGS,Reed

oh yes, that was a lot of fun, cheered me up no end. sparky and his wife are so cute. I asked him once about the pioneer outfits, and it's not re-enactments they do, but some kind of camping like it's the 18th century or something. that's how they got their nicknames of brokenpole and smokinbeaver, but I forget the stories there.

Good evening,Kathy. Now that I have a silent moment time to say hello to my dear Kathy. I think I really see Russ passing before my very eyes. He wants to stay home so with Tom's help we will do that. We have the money so if I need to get nursing help I will. They are scaring us with this tropical storm Beryl. News Flashes all day 7PM 70% 8 PM 85% they do not know what they are doing. How have you been? I hope good. Done anything special this weekend? Yesterday we went to River City Brewing Company. After a while,Russ had go to the bathroom. It was at the end of the outside deck. By the time he got so bavk I thought he would pass out. He just cannot wallk. I have my cross but I wll get through it. How is your weather? Been able to walk and look at the flowers? Take good care of yourself. I care. HUGS,Reed

Hi Honey!! I am going to the eye doctor this coming week. The flashing/flickering gives me migraines now...to where I throw up, etc. Dr said it is permanent. Yes, my eyes do the same with changes from light to dark, night driving is out. I cannot see as well when I go from light to dark for a period of time. Oh well...it is what it is. How is everything with you? It is cold here, and then next week it is suppose to heat up. Love ya Lady and take care xo
