Ok...I give up. For some reason I cannot get any photos to load.
So will have to try them later.
Woke up to a grey, cold, drizzly day.
Hubby had to get labwork done...then we went and had breakfast...and hit up some garage sales. A couple of books, 2 puzzles for grandson, a ceremic Nativity set, a very cute little duck creamer, a piggy pitcher, some Christmas flowers, and a rusty ole tool box that is going to be awesome for a planter....
Then to the market and then to gym to work out.
After that a memorial service for a colleague who passed away a few weeks ago. Old time L&D nurse. Had been around since , well, you fill int he blanks. She could predict almost to the minute, when a delivery would happen. This the second nurse I have worked with who died within a year or two or retiring.....maybe I should never retire?????
It was lovely to see so many old friends and co workers....ones who have retired or jsut quite and moved away. Sad to catch up on some - one co worker who had to retire way before she was ever ready - always sad to see her - and hear about her dad dying....another one who moved away and is younger than me but has colon cancer...OB docs (working and retired), anesthesiologists, nurses, XRay techs - so many people from work.
You know what? It is going to be a WINE night!
Got a lovely over due birthday present from a friend - the most beautiful Balleeck vase (just wish you could see it!!) and a hank made crochet dishcloth that she brought home from England!
Hubby has to get up very early tomorrow - going to be at the firing range ALL DAY tomorrow in this cold weather! And I will wake up leisurely and do some errands....including picking up a raffle prize I won yesterday at the shopping we did downtown after we went to the lovely Craft Sale at a local Church.
I love those craft shows....they have some of the BEST stocking stuffers....lovely hand made things...and some of the tackiest things you just have to laugh at!
Couldnt get my phone out of my bag quick enough (another photo that wont load) but watched a flock of turkeys - about 6 - 7 of them - walk across a very busy street - walking in the crosswalk!
He wasnt Uncle Walter - but he was always fun to watch and listen to - RIP Andy Rooney...

Danielle Thank u so much for sending me your blog! I really miss knowing how my friends are doing.. I loved reading all of your entries... I wish I knew how to set one up. Then I can just post what's going in my life and 'in my head. I don't like the new Facebook, I'm missing so many entries...
You sound wonderfu, I. So sadden by the loss of Joyce. Of course Elena sent me an email when she passed, wish I could have come for the service. But Texasss is too far away. As of last week I am semi-retired, per diem, i only have to work 2 days a month! YEA!! And I don't plan on dieing for another 10 years, per Ginger...gotta stay around to watch Calleigh J' grow up a bit more.
Please let everyone know that i think of you all often and miss you. Tell all that I say Hi!
I'll try to see if I can create a blog for 'mother of the corn'
