Jackie called me this morning and we had the best visit. We usually email, but every once in a while we talk. She is my friend who lives on the wheat farm up in Eastern Washington and is an artist. We have quite a bit in common. Sheral also called a couple of times. She has been shopping for canisters as a housewarming gift for us, but I'm about decided that the miscallaneous containers I have stuff stored in is working just fine. I like the counters without much on them and seems like there's enough on the counters.
Got showered and down to the clinic. Today the dressing was changed as well as getting the line flushed. So am tired enough that after dinner I'll get into the pjs and just lay down to watch some TV. Its been a long day. My eyes are in their burning watering mode the last couple of days. My nose is getting much better since Dr. Meno said to use vicks in it morning and night - it's working. Everything else is fine with the both of us and "the boys".
The applesauce going in the crockpot.
Building a pie.
Pie and CoffeeThe weather is warm, calm and sunny! I woke up very early and just stayed up. Today there is a photo program at Rend. Pt. by a lady who went to Antarctica to work I might go to, Maybe Joe will go too. And the clinic later. Kay's asked me to send 36 photos of her paintings to a collector of hers. (Kay doesn't have a computer and doesn't want one - she's probably a lot smarter than the rest of us). The photos are very big as they are, so I'm going to have to resize them all to send them in emails. I guess how many emails depends on how big the buyer wants to receive them. By evening she hadn't called me back, or emailed either.
Sally sent me this picture - neither of us can believe we've received two "dog in stroller" pictures in one day! Bernie just had rotor cuff surgery, then the next day Bridget broke her leg. Sally said they're "getting ready to go rock hunting" or maybe walking around the block.There are tons of great blogs to read, although I actually do very little of that. If you go to http://www.blogger.com/ and then look for a link called "Blogs of Note" you will find a lot of neat stuff by bloggers to read and look at. The are the best of the best chosen by the blogger crew. (Just in case you wonder, I couldn't be in there because my blog doesn't go out to the whole world, just to my family and friends.) Some people must sit and blog or read blogs all day long from the looks of it. I have found a few I like and here is one I thought you also might find interesting right at this time of the inauguration because she lives in Washington DC, apparently 10 minutes walk from all the famous places and monuments. So she is giving an interesting insight on things going on there right now. Her photographs are also quite good with rather unusual views and nearly all of downtown D.C. http://thegoldpuppy.blogspot.com/
Another on the other side of the country - Seattle area. This guy's a very good writer: http://dampdog.blogspot.com/. I was reading a blog at the ranch about an American guy who moved to the Pyrenees to live, climb mountains, hunt and farm organically. His adventures were great to read and had photos of his area. But the address is in the computer at the ranch and I don't have it here.
Maybe we should go rock hunting more often! Mammoth tusk found in So. Ca drainage ditch, sent-by-Sandra: http://www.pe.com/localnews/inland/stories/PE_News_Local_S_fossil21.4cd7f80.html

Get shots! My mouth started to water - just looking at the apple pie. Particularly like shot with the crock pot.
