Today my granddaughter Autumn is 8 years old, and one of her presents is that Ara arrived this morning. Autie won't know that until she gets home from school, which will be the best present she gets. I'm going to go over soon and say hi to Ara, and take Autie's birthday present.Tomorrow is when my sister and her husband come for lunch, so I've been trying to do a little cleaning, not my favorite way to spend the time, but necessary if I want to preserve a little of my pride!About 3 hrs later I'm back from Jeannie's. I took pictures while I was there but when I tried to get the memory card out of the camera back at home I realize I had inserted it backwards the last time I downloaded my photos. I'm glad I came back when I did as I was going with the flow of less traffic. It was really bad coming towards me.My doctor forwarded the results of my tests to me and everything looks pretty good. For the 1st time in the last few years my red blood count is within the desired range, and not way below as it has been. Cholesterol looks great as is everything else. Ironically I am taking fewer meds and supplements. I was sort of surprised by the cholesterol because I have been eating eggs several times a week, and never did give up things like butter, bacon, etc., and I'm soon going to try making pastry with lard. All in all I'm feeling great and have hopes for more good years. Here's to the good years, may they last a while longer.

More Heavy Rain
It is pouring down at mid-day, and I'm not sure if it's going to slow down or stop at all. My sister and her husband were supposed to be here by lunch, but got a late start. Then they couldn't get the motor to start, and ended...

Sunday Relaxin'
I drove over to Jeannie's this morning for coffee and some tasty cookies. We sat around and worked the NY Times crossword puzzle, and talked about getting an assembly line together to make tamales. It would be so much easier than one person...
