A page that I did for a challenge back when Daisy Trail was open. We were given a theme and a photo. I just added a few things like the water and reflection, my white tiger and the frame came from a kit that I no longer have. I think that it was called Nephrite but not quiet sure.. Gosh this was such a long time ago. I am so glad that I came across it in my archives that I have backed up on another site Thanks for looking.
Hello to you,
I hope that your day is going good or has been a good one for you. I have been a busy bee. Keeping myself busy is always good when I am feeling down. I feel better today so that is a good thing.
Today my mom and dad would have been married 64 years if they were still living. They were married 6 years before I came along as a big surprise I was told. If I was a surprise imagine their surprise at 2 more girls!!! I still think that my mom and aunt were in some kind of competition. For example, I was born, then my cousin Connie, then another cousin Carl, then my sister Linda, then my sister Susie and then my cousin Deborah. All a year apart beginning in 1959 and ending in 1964. What a brood we all were lol.. lots of great memories with those cousins of mine.
I am a bit concerned about my family. I got a text from my brother in law asking if the weather was bad here. No the sun was shining but I looked at the radar and we have storms coming but when I looked at their radar it is all an angry RED and so all 3 of my sisters and family are really in for it.
So far my area just shows green which is rain but that could change.
Jonathan said the other day that the sky was very dark and looked like a huge storm was coming our way but it missed us. I noticed that he left his umbrella here at home after he got caught in a deluge at work.
Jonathan had a fundraiser at work yesterday and really thought that they would rack up on doing a breakfast. They made breakfast taco's and it didn't go over as well as they hoped. So I have 2 gallons of Orange Juice in my fridge. I won't drink that much. I will barely drink a small glass every other day so someone better start drinking up lol.
I told him for the next fundraiser to do a baked potato bar. They can do the potatoes the night before and heat them in the microwave as someone orders them. He said Mom that is a great idea. We have never done that before and it would be easy. I said yep and any left over potatoes can be made into potato salad.
I would love some potato salad. I have some elbow macaroni. Maybe I will make a macaroni salad today. I am baking chicken for dinner tonight. Here in the states we have a huge romaine lettuce recall. Not from our area but I noticed that the stores pulled all the romaine lettuce off the shelves anyway when I was at the grocery store. I had wondered if they would and they did.
Thankfully my eye is healed. It is not even red anymore and the sandy gritty feeling is gone away. It still weeps a little now and then but not to bad. That is normal so I don't have to pay any mind to it. I am just glad that I can see again.
I got my insurance packet in the mail. Most of my benefits have been cut in half but not really what I use. My ride transportation went from unlimited to 60 rides a year. I have 2 left and it is just May. But I signed up for a different transportation company so it shouldn't be a problem.
My drug plan is the same, and my hearing allowance went up as well as dental but eye glasses and exams were cut in half. No problem because I have coverage with another plan for those. Plus my eye specialist is still in my plan. The only things that changed were the specialists in my plan. I am happy to see that the eye glasses and exams went with another company and as for the hearing, I have never been to any of those. I really do need to go and have my hearing checked because sometimes I do not hear well.
Oh and my podiatrist. I have to get a referral to a new one because the one I was using dropped out of my insurance plan.
Also my over the counter allowance was increased. So I don't have to pay for Tylenol, band aids, or things over the counter etc. I just go thru the catalog or online or phone and give them the number of the product I want and they will ship it to me. It's not much, just $43.00 every 3 months but it helps out.
I really like the little stand in my bathroom. It has given me a lot of space that I needed and I also have room so I don't bump in to it or hit it getting in and out of the shower.
Next I would like to move my other bookshelf to where my computer is now and put my tv on it. I measured it and it will fit great. (Thanks Miss Edna for the sewing kit you gave me in Florida. I really put the measuring tape to good use lol).
Well things are slow here today. It is time for lunch. Jonathan bought me some delicious chicken noodle soup so I think that I will go and make a bowl and have some crackers with it and relax for a while. I have a book that is begging me to read so I think that I will do that as soon as I catch up on my blog reading... after lunch that is.
Have a super day and take care... xxx BB
