Back On Track

Hello friends, I hope you all had a wonderful day....I absolutely did and our weather was cloudy but very warm.....loved it.

After a solid night's sleep I woke up early to the sound of birds chirping through my open window. I rushed to look out and sure enough there were 2 little birds eating from the feeder. Wish I could tell you what kind they were but I honestly don't know. It they aren't a blue jay, robin or sparrow I'm afraid I'm out of luck. Anyway I stumbled my way to my camera and rushed downstairs to the patio doors to get a picture but as soon as they heard the doors open they were gone, flew away. I now have my camera on my night table just in case they are back in the morning.

I dressed and went to Curves, I felt really good about going today, it's still unbelievable to me that I am enjoying exercising. I loved it. There were 5 other girls there and we chatted throughout our session. They told me that the members don't attend as often during the summer months but that's okay I will continue even if I am there by myself. I do understand why though, the kids are home from school, people go on vacation and of course they have family and friends visiting. I hope to be able to go to Curves as a guest when I am home for 2 weeks in July. Diana, do you know if I can do this?

I then went and picked up a few groceries, I don't know why I do this as Terry will only be here one day and overnight and she won't eat all this stuff. I will send it home for her to treat her grandchildren. Terry loves sweets but I never did eat many of them, then we always go out for dinner when she is here.

When I got home I tidied the house and paid special attention to the guest room. Again, a waste of time really as she doesn't visit to see my house. I am looking forward to seeing her as we have so many laughs together. We will go shopping during the afternoon and then out to eat, I think we are going to a Chinese Buffet in Edmonton. It's been awhile since I have had Chinese food. I don't mind cooking for her at all but she always likes to try different restaurants when she is in the city. Her daughter and grandchildren are arriving at 4pm Wednesday. They are visiting her for a week so she will be back in next week when she takes them to the airport to fly back home.

I swept and hosed down my deck as I am excited for Terry to see how well my flowers are doing as she was with me when I bought them and helped me plant some of them. I am happy to say I have a couple of more new gladiola shoots popping up. Honestly I am like a little girl going outside to play when I am outside working on my flowers. One of the girls was telling me today that every one's flowers and gardens are slow growing this year due to all the snow and cold weather we have had. Our weather has been pure heaven these past few days. We did have a sprinkle of rain this afternoon for about 5 minutes. I am not going to be upset at all when a rainy day arrives as our farmers are begging for it, and we have over a hundred forest fires burning due to lightning strikes over the weekend. I just want everyone happy...like that is going to happen....right!

I will be going to my favorite patients funeral Wednesday afternoon, the RN who teaches the course with me is going to pick me up and we will go together. She was shocked yesterday when I called her to tell her what happened, she, like me was not expecting this so soon.

I am feeling much better today and looking forward to tomorrow. All is right with the world again....I get it.....these things always throw me for a loop when they happen but I am able to see the good within a few days especially after a good night's sleep. I know my friend no longer has any pain and he has only gone through what we all must go through some day.

I am off to read my favorite blogs and comments.....Good Night my friends and as always May God Bless you all with a wonderful Tuesday......:-) Hugs
