Unofficial end to a wonderful summer...

Well today was spectacular. Got to be with family, got to be outside in the sun.
I even got to do some very simple things around the yard (and boy does it need it).
Tonite we had a fine cookout complete with a mix of veggies from the garden, and we sat out just enjoying each other's company, the warmth, and sounds of this beautiful evening.

All the rocks in the road, all the water over the dam, doesn't seem important at all in this light.

Can't tell you how many times I looked at the clock today and wondered just where things were along an exact month ago at the particular time. I'll probably be doing that for years to come as I don't see myself losing the ability to being amazed by it all.

Most of all.....(and you've heard it a thousand times already but....)

.... I am thankful.
For oh so much.

Tonight is, of course, Monday night.
Each Monday night into Tuesday since the surgery something has managed to go south. Well that ends here. Tonight.
A month of such antics is enough.

We're movin' forward.

I have blood labs to get drawn in the morning and I expect to be able to give you all a Shiny Happy Bob report in the morning.

Hope you all had a spectacular day!

  3. So glad you had such a beautiful evening. Wishing you continued blessings and enjoyment of family and the little things in life. Take it easy-one step at a time with recovery. Be willing to ask for help as you need it--you will be independent in time. Keep us posted. God bless--Dot
