  • The surgery- 2 meniscus tear

    The surgery went well – I had not one but two torn meniscus…they were repaired…I had a spinal rather than general anesthesia so my chances were better of getting off the table alive.  The spinal is kind of like novacaine…you know it starts wearing off slowly and then by evening you have to take some… Read more

  • I’ve been on a mission for several years to change the things I don’t like about myself.  In my opinion, I’ve made some pretty fair headway…I have come a long way and am not sure how far I have to go.  One of my big things in life (no pun intended) is my weight..I’ve always… Read more

  • Lots of irons in the fire

    All of my furry children are getting along well now…the felines were playing and chasing each other around the house today.  By the way…did anyone catch the “Dog Whisperer” 100 episode?  I love that Cesar is so emotional!!!  Probably why he understands dogs so well.Baxter gets snipped today…I hate to have to take him in… Read more

  • Montana 2

    Montana is a state with vast areas of nothingness…the only green we saw on the east side was the money we payed for gas…The speed limit on interstate highways is 75 and 70 mph on secondary roads…we laughed because we went thru a construction zone and the speed limit was 65… and there is no… Read more

  • Montana

     Montana is a beautiful state…I didn’t find the eastern side quite as impressive as the other side – he didn’t really disagree but he thought the east side was beautiful.  I will say the landscape is like nothing I had ever seen before.  Lots of earth colors.  Lots of wheat fields – foothills/mountains and pretty… Read more

  •  Wall Drug – hmmmm – overpriced food – lots of souvenirs and Black Hills jewelry.  Important to see only because of the original story…the druggist’s wife started giving away ice water to tourists who were driving thru on the highway in order to bring in business and today – it’s huge.Decided to forego Mt Rushmore… Read more

  • WHERE IS WALL DRUG. Well, in Wall,SD, silly…We stayed in Mitchell,SD last night – was a LONG drive just to get here 🙂  I asked “him” about 2:30 – well, are you about ready to stop for the night – we weren’t out of Iowa yet.  We checked into our motel and started watching football… Read more
