In a couple weeks,my granddaughter's husband Mark, will come help me with my computer. I know he is always busy, but he said he would make time to help. What a sweetheart . I will have him help me find my pictures or at least show me how I can load from my phone.
I hope all of you are safe and enjoying some of this summer weather. There are some really hot temps on the weather maps. Yikes, I am not good in such heat. Zaps my energy, especially if I work out in it. Like when I weed whacked this week. I got a small battery powered whacker. One I can handle, but the heat and as thick as the weeds were getting, my arms still felt wore out. LOL. I turning into a cupcake, no more grit. :(
Blessings to all of you and thank you for the good wishes and prayers. XOXO
Growing up in Indiana I never noticed the humidity, it was just the way summer was. Now, after living in our desert climate for so long, when I go back to Indiana the humidity hits me like a wall. It can totally zap your energy. Take it easy and pace yourself . . . you'll get that energy back when autumn arrives and your world is a blaze of color and there is a chill in the air.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy to hear that your granddaughter and her husband (or another granddaughter's husband) are helping you out. It's wonderful to be loved my family :)
Take care . . . you and ted are both in my prayers.
Connie :)
Thank you Connie. Oh I have never like the heavy heat even as a child. But when we age...you know AC has ruined us. LOL. Now I can live without it. Blessings to you and Steve, you are in our prayers. xoxo, Susie
DeleteIt's so nice to have someone help with the transportation. Gives you some time to do a few things and it sounds like a few need to be done. Hang in there with the heat and as always, continued good thoughts.
ReplyDeleteJeanie, I am so blessed with my grandgirls , they offer to help all the time. I have decided to wait till autumn to stain the porch floor. LOL. I am too old to get that hot. Blessings to you and yours, xoxo, Susie
DeleteDon't we just love our grandchildren Susie !
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear that Ted is continuing to recover nicely, and sending him healing wishes and thoughts, he surely is a trooper !
Heat and humidity has settled in, I'm ready for Autumn weather, but until then we'll take what we get :)
Be well dear friend,
Hugs,
~Jo
Thank you Jo. Ted is doing well this week. I am praying the worst of this journey is behind us. They have adjusted his meds this week also.
DeleteOh yes, I am nt so good in this heat. But I am nbot looking forward to the storms and rain coming up from the gulf..as the weatherman is forecasting. It's hard to enjoy the outside in shade because of mosquitoes. A nice breeze can help keep them away. Blessings to you , xoxo, Susie
Happy to hear that Ted is doing better. I'm sure it's been a long journey for you and him. Sending love across the miles.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Alexandra. So many wonderful well wishers in this world. Blessings to you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteI didn't know chemo could be like that. Sounds better than what I hear.
ReplyDeleteAdam, Ted's first two rounds of chemo were week long drips. He was hospitalized for a month each time. Then he had an hour IV drip everyday for a week, as maintenance before his bone marrow transplant. Now this week's has been an injection...I too had never heard of that. But Ted like it. The side effects is he gets hiccups every once in awhile. Medicine is weird science. LOL. Blessings to you , xoxo, Susie
DeleteI still pray every single day for you and Ted.....and will be so grateful when you have your life back. God is good and I know it will happen. Wish I lived closer......
ReplyDeleteLinda, Thank you so much for your prayers and good heart. I am so hoping the worst of this journey is behind us. Ted did so well this week. Sierra's been the best grandkid ever helping us. I am thankful to just not be in the traffic. :):) Today is Ted's last injection. Since he gets it in his tummy, he's been getting hiccups.They have adjusted some of his meds thru this week also. One of the prep meds helps the stiffness in his hands and makes his B.P. higher, so it was back on the B.P. med. Monday will be a Dr's appt. Next week, Ted will be 67 , it's his b-day. He says he has two bdays now. His original and May the 1st from the transplant. :) Blessings to you and LD. Be careful in the heat.Love you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteI love the two birthdays. Love y'all more than you know.....
DeleteSounds like things are improving. I am sure you both are tired of doctor visits! I am no longer able to stand hot temps either Susie....glad when fall arrives! That's something to look forward to, right?
ReplyDeleteOh autumn will be so welcomed :):) I am praying for my Teddy to be thru the scary part. He has been so up this week. The drs at the clinic are a group of four bone marrow specialists. They stay busy too. Stay cool if you are able. Blessings , xoxo, Susie
DeleteBlessing to your family for stepping up and giving you the help you need. Traffic gets me much quicker than it once did....well, truth be told, lots of things do!! My son helps me with computer things. I'm fortunate to live in the same house as he ☺ He also helps my sister....she probably needs a new computer but limps along.
ReplyDeleteTake care in the heat! I keep telling myself that it's July and it's supposed to be hot. And humid. ☺☺
Doris, I am so thankful for my family and friends. I am hoping I can get help with my computer and phone. I do not like up dates. LOL I get used to one way and they change it. Oh this has been a steamy summertime for sure . Blessings to you and yours, xoxo, Susie
DeleteI am so happy that you are getting some help. What would we do without our families, especially as we get older. Enjoy your summer days. xo Laura
ReplyDeleteLaura, You are so right. We need our families always. I used to tell my daughters as they were growing up, friends are great , but family is forever.I am blessed with a beautiful family of children, grandchildren and in-laws. LOL
DeleteHope you are doing well in your new home and area. Stay cool, blessings, xoxo, Susie
Hello Susie, thank you for your kind words. One day at a time. I know all about. Hemp and edition.So glad your Ted is starting to feel better. May each day be better. Xoxo
ReplyDeleteLinda, I do not know what you meant about Hemp..is it a cream to use? I am thankful Ted is better. I pray you are getting better also.Blessings to you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteIt's been pretty hot here too, Susie, and doing most of my errands in the mornings. The AC is on right now. I like your little vase with the red flowers. I'm do glad to hear Ted is feeling better. That is so nice of Sierra to take him to his appointments for awhile. You have such a loving and caring family. Try not to overdo when you go outside and work. This heat zaps my energy as well. : )
ReplyDeleteHave a pleasant weekend, dear friend.
~Sheri
Hi Sheri, I am blessed with a loving family. We try to be there for each other. Ted is in the top of the drs' group on staying well.:):) We have had some cool mornings here and I dearly love that. I am ready for the AC to be turned off and nothing but sweet breezes to cool us. Hope you are loving your summertime. Please be safe there. Every time I hear of the quakes or fires I think about my friends in California. Blessings, love you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteGlad Ted is doing well and you are getting a little break...it will be a special time for Sierra and Ted, too!
ReplyDeleteLinda, You are right. Ted said he and Sierra talked like magpies the whole time, back and forth. :) Kind of a bonding experience. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteHow sweet to have a loving granddaughter to help out. I dislike TRAFFIC too! Hope this finds Ted doing well. Girl, it's so hot these days that I am afraid to even think about what my electric bill will be next month! But Oh I just can't take the heat without some MAJOR water nearby! Like the beach! LOL! Hugs and blessings, Cindy
ReplyDeleteCindy, If I lived near the water I would be in it every hot day. LOL. My hair could not look any worse for wear. Oh that electric bill ...thinking of it kind knots up my tummy. :):) Yes, Sierra is my first born grandchild and has a good heart. Always willing to help people. Blessings to you, xoxo, Susie
Deleteso glad you stopped by Susie! Oh my gosh, those shots in the stomach sound so painful and scary...he is so brave!!--so weird how it causes hiccups! LOl --also strange but SO GREAT THAT HE SAYS THE SHOTS DON'T HURT. Enjoyed these pretty pictures of your pretty flowers!
ReplyDeleteDebbi, Ted got an awesome report for the Dr. yesterday at his appt. He only has to go once a week now. The hiccups stopped when the last chemo was over. :) BLessings, xoxo, Susie
