Woo-Hoo Guy approves!

I imagine that was scary! I always hold my breath when my MIL calls but it’s usually to remind hubby to pick up a prescription. The last few nights she’s been having trouble getting from her chair to the bed and spent Saturday night in the chair! I wish she HAD called then. But I’m sure she “didn’t want to be a bother”.
Be a bother already! Don’t do something that will hurt you! Sheesh! Last night at church her legs were really swollen. I guess hubby convinced her to call, because tonight she called to say she’d made it into bed ok. Now we’ll se if she can get back up in the morning.
I swear, if and when I’m in a bad spot, I’m going to be a pain in the butt rather than risk my health or make people fuss and worry!
Woo-Hoo Guy approves!
Wish I could celebrate with you in person!
Did you tell them that you needed to be gone the weekend of October 19th? :)
You’re welcome!
You must be beyond yourself with excitement. This is going to be a great change in your life.
Congrats! Great news! Hope to see more of you at the Canteen.
Heck, we’ve gotten those calls so many times, we don’t get too freaked out when they call. BUT, at 100 years old, there’s always that chance it’ll be “The Call”. This evening, it was the usual.
Oh my gosh! Yes, she needs to be a bother! Since she called tonight, maybe y’all got that through to her. Sure hope so!
Thanks! I’m so glad he approves! LOL!
I hope so, too! I’d rather her call than the ER telling us that she’s fallen or worse! She wears an emergency button but doesn’t want to bother them either. sigh....
LOL
Not just yet but I will, promise!
It is a HUGE relief for sure!
It will be a GOOD change!

You WILL see more of me now that things have settled down!
I was working a lot of hours between the two jobs, and I was
so fried out that by the time I got home all I wanted to do was sleep!
Just have to keep drumming it into her head that y’all WANT her to call. With luck she’s figured that out now.
Fortunately no ER visit for Clara this time. Just a little scrape on her shin and a bruise on her arm. She was embarrassed more than hurt.
And it’s about durn time too!
I hope the drive to and from work won’t be as harrowing during winter as you’ve had to deal with. That will be another plus!
I hope they’ll let you. It just wasn’t the same without you last year!
Man! I hate leaving a name off this ping list. :’{
I’m glad it was only a bump or two for Clara! Falls are so scary at their age!
Well, at any age. Few years ago I tripped over my own silly shoe and fell in the mall parking lot. I was so embarrassed and had a HUGE black eye for 2 weeks. I’m sure my customers were wondering what happened to me. LOL!
BTW...wow! That Hungarian eaglet has gotten HUGE since the last glimpse I had of him! LOL!
A bump or two is usually what it is. She drops things and when she bends over to attempt to pick them up, she just tumbles onto the floor. She did whack her head on the edge of the bed once and had a heck of a goose egg but she was fine. Said she didn’t even have a headache.
That was a heck of a fall if you got a black eye out of the deal. OUCH!
Will you get to stay off your feet most of the time?
That lil bird is growing like a weed. Since the egg that didn’t hatch is still in the nest, it gives perspective. Hard to believe it once fit inside something so tiny.
Poor Ozols is STILL hauling moss and sticks to his nest. I feel so sorry for him not having a mate this year. He has the nest fit for a queen now.
He’s only made one trip this morning since it’s raining but it was a huge clump of moss. I hope the tree is sturdy enough to handle all the weight he’s added this year.
