It's been a fairly busy week here at the farm, more lambs being born still making preparation for surgery...
Speaking of surgery.
We went for Mr P's last prep appts. on Tuesday, one was for lab work the other was for a class on what to expect and what to do before and after surgery, So much information, to which I am so thankful.We met some really nice people who were about to have the same surgery too!...Again he passed with flying colors. Thank you Lord!
We were driven by Susan as the dr.'s office and hospital are in a fairly large city, lots of traffic, notice I said city, not town,we are used to towns. ~smile~
Heres another true story, With some advice for all who travel a lot , especially on interstate highways where there is lots of traffic and drivers on cell phones also speeding.. "Heads UP"
I am stickler for driving the speed limit, and if ever Mr. P. speeds up I will (every so sweetly)remind him of the limit, he often tells me he is speeding to get away from a truck or van hauling things on top of their vehicles, such as ladders. He says they are a hazard and one could come flying off toward us and well, you know the rest. I would often think wow, that's a good one, not really realizing the danger, I always thought, surely a person would secure their materials.
On our way back home,with Susan driving, he had the opportunity to prove his point, we were driving behind a truck, you guessed it with two ladders. Lucky for us we were in the passing lane, when all of a sudden one of the ladders came flying off the truck and landed behind us , if we had been riding directly behind the truck, I might not be here typing this story.
Sure enough when we passed the truck driver he was on the phone, we pointed to him to look toward the back of his truck.
Today I have been busy giving the bathrooms an early spring cleaning, i.e.; window washing, fixtures cleaned, cabinets cleaned and organized, ahh!smells so fresh, also catching up on laundry. Do we ever catch up on laundry?
Mr. P was told to stay active up until his surgery, so he is out making some needed repairs on the chicken coop.
Later today we will be taking this lovely lady out for an early birthday dinner. Would you like to read another story?
Last night we called to make plans for today, per our usual evening phone call she was asked what she had done that day.
It seems she wanted to move a recliner from downstairs to an upstairs room, and bring a lounge chair down stairs, so she did, all by herself. Needless to say she got a good talking to from both dh and I, we were not amused at all,so many things could have gone wrong. And that's another story I am sticking with.
