HAPPY SATURDAY.....

I hope all my dear friends are having a Blessed & Happy Saturday!  I have still been under the weather.....for some reason I have a bug that "LOVES" me too much.
I Hate Germs!
The bug paid a visit on Memorial Day and never left......but I hope to boot him out this time....FOR GOOD!
I started on some stronger meds yesterday and I am already feeling a little better......a little rough early a.m. but as the day goes on I am feeling better. I also started back on my RAW Honey and Lemon.....making sure this "BUG" does not come back. 
Dear friends when you say your prayers tonight please remember me......Thank you and God Bless each and everyone of you!

Be Safe

NO BABY BOTTLES HERE!
 From LIFE magazine dated January 8, 1940......
This was before my time ......

If someone saw a mother doing this today......
her baby would probably be taken away from her....
they would call it "child abuse".

God Bless

GOATS!....WHAT? HOW?

We need some "Goat Education".
No better place to go for it than my friends in Blog-Land.

Hubby & I have been discussing about getting some goats to help clean up our property.....what kind would we get?
We know NOTHING about goats!
Are they expensive and are they hard to care for?
What kind of shelter do we provide them?
So many questions......is there a good website or book that you would recommend for us to read before we make a purchase?
Any information will be appreciated.........
Baa....Baa!
Internet Photo

I think they are adorable and I enjoy reading about them and looking at pictures that are posted on your blogs.
My dear friends that raise goats......you make it look so easy and enjoyable......please advise!
We only want 2-4 to start with to see how it goes.
I know our grandsons will love it too!

God Bless

Be Safe

LIFE'S LITTLE BUMPS.....

Hello dear sweet friends.......
hope everyone has had a great & prosperous week.
Things have been a little hectic in my part of the world for the past 3 weeks.

I started going to a great Chiropractor for my back....everything going good the first week and then one evening my brother calls and he was taking our mom to the ER.
She is 78 and a heart patient...she started having shortness of breath and burning in her chest......
OK...after spending 6 hrs waiting on test and finally getting her to a room, it's was now 2:30 in the morning. We are all exhausted. 
NO sleep for any of us that night!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Her Heart is ok but her kidneys were not....the kidneys main artery's were just about closed together....this is causing lots of problems with her blood pressure (this has been going on for months). They put stints in both arteries and you would not believe how this has changed things.
Her blood pressure started dropping so now she does not take as much meds for it. Also her appetite is coming back (she lost 25 lbs.) her bladder is working properly now......
WOW....I did not know the kidneys could effect so much.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the mean time staying and sleeping on the not so wonderful little couch bed night after night...getting very little sleep...did a number on my back....was I glad to be going to the Chiropractor!

My mom is home now recovering and doing pretty good.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We had our 2 wonderful grandsons for the Memorial Holiday weekend and Memorial Day I got up with a terrible sore throat...got a culture done Tuesday...thank goodness it was not strep throat. Dragged myself out of bed everyday and went to work....
Now I have a terrible sinus infection......
BUT
this afternoon I went to the doctor and got a "cocktail" shot.....
Yippee...I will start getting better tomorrow and by Sunday I will be almost back to normal.....whatever "normal" is.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Life's little bumps....slows us down but makes us stronger and depend more upon our wonderful 
Heavenly Father!

Have a Blessed weekend!

God Bless
Be Safe
