I LIKE Thursday. 5-29-25

 




Found on the internet. 




Several things to like about this week. The first is that I  am back in my home. A neighbor who had been taking in my mail, left this on our dining room table with our mail. 






Actually, Mr. Busy is not back home yet , but closer now. Monday he was transported to a rehabilitation hospital in Casper WY. Only 2 hours from home, instead of 4.5 hours. 




Wednesday, my grandson-in-law, picked me and our daughter up and drove us to Casper. We had lunch with Mr. Busy. Then he drove our daughter back to Loveland CO, filled his truck with fuel and drove back to Casper, picked me up and we drove back home to Gillette. An 11 hour day of driving for him. I am so grateful. I spent the day with my hubby and helped out with his physical therapy. Here he is smiling for the camera on a short break in his physical therapy routine. The red pillow is a sternal protection reminder. He can’t get out of bed, stand up or sit down into a chair using his arms. So he holds the pillow against his sternum and pushes up with his legs or log rolls out of bed. It’s a lot of work. This will be his way for at least 6 weeks. 


When I returned home on Monday night, this was some of my mail. A Mother’s Day gift from my daughter. 



And my spirea was blooming. Nothing else has been planted around the house, but there is still some time. Pots of annuals can still happen. 


I missed 2 weeks of conversation starters: 5-22-25: What technology could I live without?   I could get by without a television 

5-29-25: What does Memorial Day mean ?  Memorial Day has always been poppies,  handed out at the grocery store or other gathering places to remind us of the men and women who gave their lives in the service of protecting our country and its constitution. Mr Busy’s father died in WWII and received a Purple Heart. 





Stay Busy and Stay Happy and Healthy and Hopeful.

  5. Judy - thanks so much for your kind comment on my blog!

    I have been out of the loop for a bit - sorry to see that Mr. Busy has been in the hospital - it looks like he is on the mend and soon things will be (closer to) normal! Enjoy your weekend!
