Hi everyone

Well, I hope everyone had a Happy Mother's Day (I'm sure only females read my blog). I sure did. Dexter and Michael surprised me with a 2006 white Honda CRV! I love it. It holds all my art supplies in the back and there is plenty of room for four people.
We took it to Williamsburg, VA last week. For those of you who may not know, that is a very historical town. We walked our legs off, but the weather was great and we had a lot of fun.
I'm having trouble with my rotator cuff. There is a partial tear (it is or it isn't, right?) and tendinitis and arthritis. I've been getting steroid shots, only every three months (darn it) but that hasn't really helped. The doctor is talking about going in and scoping the area. We shall see.
Dex still every once in awhile will take some oxygen , especially after working outside for awhile. Otherwise he is doing fine. We have had so much rain nonstop that we can't put up the new shed. We had two truck loads of dirt brought in and leveled the ground and now he has to cover it all with a plastic sheet. Finally we are getting 90 degree weather, so as soon as it dries out, he'll have them come and erect it. It's a red barn style root with three bays, I guess about 20 x 30 or 30 x 30, I'm not sure.
The time is getting close for our trip to Europe in Sept. We sure are looking forward to it.
Well, that's it for now, Oh yea, it's my birthday. For 24 days Dex and I are the same age...71.
Bye for now. Teri

Well, most of y ou are on facebook, so look at that and see the two photos of Dex and I when we were in the islands on our cruise. Doesn't he look good? He is doing well after his blood clot. Still takes a little oxygen when he works too long outside. Otherwise we are ok. Tom's son just turned 3 in March, and Katie's girl turned 1 ont he same day. Mike helped me put the pix o n facebook but taking alittle longer to figure out the blog. Mike is still waiting for the army to give him papers to have physical therapy for his back.
Meanwhile he's in limbo as to getting a job. He's back to volunteering for the fire dept as an EMT. Actually saved a person the other day with CPR.
That's it for now, love to all. Teri

Hi

Hi

It's Me Again

OK, OK, boy you guys keep perstering me on this dang blog thing. ow I'm on Facebook and can hardly keep up with that!!!
Now, let's see. Today it is snowing, the first real snow we have had in a year. About 6 inches and it is beautiful, especially when you don't have to drive anywhere.
This is terrible, I looked back at the calander to see if we did anything eciting and all I can find are doctor's appointments.
I am edoing my bathroom. Nothing like Barb and Mike's house, believe me. But a new ceiling and lights the rain and leak in the roof had damaged it), new walls (a klittle darker than Williamsburg blue) with hi gloss molding etc. New flooring will go in Thursday...just linoleum
We closed off a door to my closet so now I have a nice expanse of wall, so of course, I have to fill it. I'm going to put my antique pie safe there to hold my towels.
I'm also getting the same linoleum put down in my closet.
Still taking oil painting classes and still teaching acrylics at the Senior Center.
Doing alot of planning with my cousin in Colorado because she, her cousin and Dex and I are going to Europe in September. London for three days (where I'll hook up with my daughter-in-law's parents) then Scotland for a week, and then Dublin for a week. We are all excited about that.
It snowed today about 6 inches and that's more than we have had in almost two years. Abby goes out to pee and stands on her two front feet.
OK, that's it for now.
Love Teri
OK now how the hell do I send this thing.
