Very lucky for you the weather cooperated. I’m with you on preferring cloudy weather for travel. Easier on the eyes.
Sure don’t like the sound of things with your DIL. Sounds scary. Wish she wasn’t going to wait until tomorrow to see a doctor. I’ll keep her in my prayers.
Yeah, SUCH a sacrifice, staying with the girls. :-)
Good evening, Mooch...this story of our military, and our allies’ military, needs repeating.
People, especially today’s youth, need to remember what a great feat was accomplished under not so good circumstances.
Yes, working for a meager living. :)
Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...did you sing tonight?
Are you anywhere near the big fire?
With my son being gone, she had no one that could stay here with the girls so she could go to the doctor. She also just has no energy, so I play with the girls and watch them so she can finally lie down and rest during the day.
I hope it’s something easily “fixed”. Sounds so much like pneumonia...but I don’t mention that to her. Don’t want to make her worry.
Our thanks to your Dad for his service to our country.
They say everything happens for a reason and I’ve always been a believer in that.
How long did you “threaten” to retire? LOL! All of a sudden, you did and now you’re free to be up there to help out and you don’t have to worry about rushing back for work.
I hope things turn out to be an easy fix but it does sound scary. Your DIL is probably happy to have you there, knowing all of them are in good hands.
Good evening, radu...still raining?
Do the kitties go out in the rain?
It is -3 right now.
Yes, it did work out well, didn’t it! I mentioned that to her tonight. I don’t have to worry about being penalized if I’m gone for more than a few days.
I just hope she doesn’t have any problems getting in to see a doctor. It gets harder all the time....thanks to that waste of skin, obama! Grrrr!
Hey there Kathy.
It rain until this afternoon, then dropped back to drizzle. We got a little over an inch and a half since this started last evening and it was a good soaking rain. Round Two is building up over TX now and will give us more rain tomorrow.
The kitties don’t go out in the rain this time of year but they can go out during warm weather of they want. They come inside at night regardless. No one’s been out since Raivis disappeared last weekend though. Not taking any chances.
Your temp keeps tumbling, doesn’t it? Just makes me shiver to think about it. I feel for y’all up there!
That system will move down here by the end of the week but we won’t get as cold. It’ll still be colder than we’d like.
But hey, it’s December and it’s supposed to be cold, right? LOL
Surely they have urgent care centers somewhere in that area if she can’t get in to see her regular doctor. That’s one reason those places started springing up.
I went to one in Raleigh when I had pneumonia, though it turned out that doctor couldn’t treat it. He sent me to an ER for the treatment. At least it was all done that day. No waiting a week for an appointment.
You’re right. Today’s youth don’t realize how vital is our military, period.
Good evening, Luv...the ingenuity displayed by the allied forces was astounding.
I think that is exactly the result she is hoping for. Takes too long when you make a “regular” appointment!
Guess I’d better make like a [sort of] Early Bird and scoot on out. I’m not sure when I’ll be needed in the morning. She is going to call the dr’s office pretty early. We’ll go from there. Please keep her in your prayers?
Ta-ta!
Totally amazing! And it was the brainchild of an “ordinary” man.
Americans are wonderful!
Yep, you’ll be getting up a bit earlier while you’re there. Need your sleep so you’ll have the energy to keep up with the girls! LOL
Good night and sleep well. Your DIL is being kept in my prayers.
WOOHOO!!
Pro.....#50!!
I used to give tours of a C-47 (DC-3) at the air museum in Marathon, FL Keys. The plane had been in the Berlin airlift. Just about every German teenage girl had learned about our plane's role in the airlift! It's still taught in the schools. This is back when America was truly great!
Sending prayers that your DIL is all better soon.
Tough duty for you...taking care of your grands.
