  • Up way to early

    Two or three days ago my eyes started to fill with matter in the morning. Then yesterday I felt like some one had smacked me in the face. By bedtime I smeared Vicks all over my face and by 3:30 a.m. I got up after a restless night and took a Sudafed.  Assuming of course a decongestant is what I need.

    Tomorrow daughter is going to vote and then pick us up to head to the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center in Austin.  (I put the link so a separate window will open)  The last time I was there was with son.  He loved this place and bought the plants for his yard from there.  When he died we donated for a couple trees in his memory. While we can't know which tree there are 2 plaques there in his memory and we've not seen them.

    Yesterday Wil said he wasn't interested in flowers and I reminded him why we are going. This morning I must make sure if he wants to go or if pictures from me would be to his liking.

    It's a good thing I don't remember the way to son's house, I may not be pleased what has happened to his beautiful yard since it is now a rent house. (Photo of his front door and landscaping). scottDoor

    Perhaps it is a good thing I have completely lost touch with the realtor that sold it.  He once sent me pictures of the place.

    I remember the strange feeling I had when driving by the house I grew up in one year I was home.  The old pasture across from it had houses built on it!

    I just hope it isn't too hot when we get there.  I have stayed home from the pool yesterday giving my back a rest.  Daughter has a new 'used' car that has really comfy seats. She traded the Mazda in on a Chrysler 300. This will be the last time I will travel to the center.  Shoot I can't even bring something home to plant. :-)

    Well daylight has arrived. Time to go outside and fill bird feeders and hang corn for the squirrels. Then out front when I hang the flag King will show up at the fence with his ball. lol

  • @BLB: You keep this in your heart , dear Bonnie .

  • @fauquet: what was hard we had to turn off the highway on the road that went right by the road leading to his house. I felt it in my heart but said nothing.
