It was a long week. Another setback. My gf missed some of her dialysis appointments. On Saturday before she was done she got sick and when she was taken off of the machine her bp was way up. She ended up going to the ER. She didn't get home until 3 a.m. this morning. She is doing fair, I hope she can keep her appointments this week. She gets a ride on the local transportation during the week and I take her for her Saturday appointments. Meanwhile our dog is healing slowly after his ear operation. Dogs are the best. Luckily they don't know what's going on at times so they stay good-natured even in trying times. Hope I didn't bring anyone down that reads this post. Life as I've found out in the past 5 years, takes the unexpected turns. Have a wonderful week ahead. Here's the boy chillin' Saturday...

When it rains it pours. Well not really, it's been pretty dry and it's really heated up for the Father's Day weekend. Dog days of Summer are here to stay, that's for sure. Most of this week on my drive home from work I've been playing a cd of Joni Mitchell from that set I got a few years back. Her first 10 studio albums. As soon as you turn one these it's magical. She is awesome and should have gotten more recognition for her beautiful songs. So to carry on, here's one of my favorite songs.....

The early morning light rain has made this Sunday a laid back day. Always good to have one of these days on the weekend. Around three years ago my cousin told me about a nice cd collection that was cheap on Amazon. Joni Mitchell's first 10 albums. So I bought it and wow how good it was to hear all these albums again after so many years. About a year after that my cousin passed away. I miss our talks especially about music. Each of us turned the other on to some artists throughout the years. Last night I listened to one of those cds and am going to share a song from it with you. All about one historical music event.....

Here we are in June already. Sometimes time moves quickly. Things are slowly getting back to normal around here. That's a good thing! And normal also means once you get up all's fair....have a wonderful week.....

It's been a rather warm weekend so far. Temps are in the 80's and they say 90 tomorrow. So far the big storms have passed us by. Just a few times of some spritz. It's all good....
So there it was on the counter
One little bright spot there
Out of place and lighter
I wonder, wonder where
Did it come from this thing
My finger would not fix it
That dot that wasn't a ring
That didn't seem to fit
So what am I to do
As I look beyond this one
Lo and behold I turn my view
From the window, it's a bit of sun.

Things are going well with my gf here at home. Each day she does better. She was away for a long time between being in the hospital and a skilled nursing facility. It looks like Spring is finally here to stay. We've had some 80's day already. The best thing about this time of year is the humidity isn't bad like it gets later in the Summer. So take life as it is, remember to always smile.....

Happy Mother's Day.  It's great having my gf home. Sure was a long time coming. Still it will take some time to be at home again. She had her blanket when she was sitting on the sofa. After she got up and left the blanket there, guess who took over...have a wonderful week....
