Thursday

We are still not able to combine yet, perhaps by the weekend.....

Hubby finally went to the Dr today after coughing and being sick for a month, come to find out hes got a bacterial infection in the bronchi.... so now hes got some good antibiotics to hopefully kick this gunk!

It has been a very hard week for us here, the three kids in the accident that I spoke on earlier....

One of the boys has had 2 surgeries so far and needs many more....hes got some colon damage, both legs and both arms broken, he can however respond by lifting his hand up a bit and squeezing his parents hands,...His mom told me today that he got his first shower and they cut his hair, tomorrow will be hopefully a day of the *dead* colon removal, they need to bandage up his legs again....and also going to place a trachea in so they can work on his mouth and jaw....

The girl is stable, medication induced coma since she arrived at the hospital....shes got mutiple skull and facial fractures......now as I write this she is in her first of multiple surgeries.... she did however today open her eyes and look at her dad and sister....and she can hold up hands when prompted ....so this was a good sign as well...

The third child the young man that graduated with my oldest daughter he is still on life support,....he has swelling in several areas of the brain....which places preassure on the brain stem. Yesterday was his best day as it was reported that he had began coughing and was also moving his fingers,.... but today now he has taken turn backwards and not doing as well,

So prayers please keep them coming!!


I will this weekend try to get a blog set up on how to do the baskets....I think placemeats would be awesome to make useing this method!!

Until the weekend .......have a great Friday!


coming back in and adding an edit,......got a call from my sister in Oklahoma.....my niece who is also a college student fell off her horse and was air lifted out to a hospital....testing in progress now....*sighs*

One Scarf done

Kind of a close up of the scarf....just 3 layers of fleece....nice and warm..and of course being the basketball player she wanted basketball fleece...

She really likes the scarf...no complaints so far,......this is my youngest daughter

Kind of blurry but you get the idea....

Not hard to make...from start to finish I was done within 30 minutes...buy a solid color...and a contrasting color or design...they are cut in 9 inch widths...(one solid and two of the contrasting)....sandwhich the pieces so the solid is in the middle and then sew down the middle....I did a double seam....1/4 inch apart as I know how hard this girl can be on things!! then just cut one inch strips..being carfeul not to cut the middle seams..... taa daaa a scarf!!

Have a good week ahead!

I passed!!

Well I am finally and officially done with my medication assistant class, was a 6 week class, turned out to be 7 due to one being cancelled,....which was great as it gave us all a longer weekend to s tudy for finals!!

I was soo looking forward to being done, not driving any more, no more lunch breaks in the car to study for a test, no more emailing and calling up 2 other fellow co-workers to hash out some ideas on some problems.....as we got out of class for the final time yesterday we 3 decided to go to kentucky fried chicken for our final supper out....was awesome, we shared notes and study guides and ideas we can incorporate,.... Was fun for all three of us to get to know one another, and kindle some new friendships..... I am going to miss these days!

Now it leaves me to wonder what on earth I am going to do with my Tuesday and Thursday evenings.....hmmmmmmmmmmm.......


Any how....today I had the day off.....Got the house pretty much cleaned up along with a few yard ornaments....gave 3 massages today...and now catching up on blogs and contemplating!! As hubby says..... "It's never good to have too much free time"

Speaking of hubby,....only got 35 acres out so far in the soy beans, Still too wet and sounds like we got more snow and rain mix on the way later this evening... I have a feeling we will have our thanksgiving in the combine this year.

Any how, until next time!!

Rain Rain Go Away

Well right now looking out I can see nothing but mud holes, wet fields, crabby farmers and depressed people due to lack of sunshine!

Why is it when we have no sun, lack of good O'l vitamin D, we want to sleep? I got home from work yesterday and laid down and took a three hour nap and was still tired....Total fight today to come home and NOT lay down!!

This is the final week of classes!!! Take our final test on Thursday, I am looking forward to no longer driving 50 miles twice a week! Time to settle in and start some serious sewing!!

Ohhhhh speaking of sewing, I went to a Quilt show that I will either later tonight or for sure by end of the week will share some awesome photos,. Quilt show was in Watertown SD, quilts large and small from all over the U.S. after walking through there made me feel like I need to really take some serious classes in this art as my stitching is nothing like theirs!

Let see, I did get the office painted and it looks great, I got all the carpets shampooed and they look great too, wish it would all stay this way!

Any how, a chili supper is brewing and I have some cornbread to make yet, until later on happy blogging and stay warm!

Fantastic weather!

I tell ya its been an awesome week in Minnesota guys! Not too hot, humidity has been livable!!

Tomatoes are turning fast in the garden, I can't keep up, but not cause of them...just too many irons in the fire!

I got the office painted this weekend plus got the carpet in there shampooed! Amazing how much better a coat of paint looks on a wall! Sure brightened it up! Once upon a time that room was gray walls with a black stripe at the top and decorated all in reds and blacks, mainly this area belongs to my husband and he collects International tractors and such, so we themed that room just for him then last week he tells me its too dark so this week I said lets do it!! He got to pick the color (white) Blah... I personally love color but he would have all white floors and walls if Id let him! So maybe this week Ill get the art work hung back up and get a photo posted!

School is going very week, 2 weeks down 4 to go! We have had some serious study time..each night in class we cover approx 3 chapters then next class meeting we have a test! So far in 4 tests I have missed 4....Makes me feel good!! Pharmacology isn't as bad I thought it was going to be!

Tomorrow my baby turns 17! I cant believe it! She so proud of he r job and own money and checkbook and she gets to run all the errands ect.......soon the kids will be gone and it will be just dad and I.......hmmmm maybe I can cut back in work time then!! Well I can at least dream!

Well that's all from here so hope you all have a great week!

Spy ware or junk blogs?

I tell ya I don't always have the time to blog and actually quite new here in blog land, I spend more time looking at them than I do creating my own!

I have to ask you guys out there if you have ever logged in and had in your dashboard area a lot of stuff in foreign language in there? this is the first time it has happned, I have not clicked on any of them because they are not any that I follow but I am wondering how they got there and below I will post one sample of what I got......and I got a total of 9 in my dashboard! I am not one bit happy about this!

Just curious if this is something normal?

Fall is near

Been a couple of weeks since my last post and figured I better take a few minutes and let you all know I have not forgotten about ya, just busy busy busy, but I do pop in and read so I dont fall behind!!

Got one week of classes down and man let me tell ya for a woman that is 45 years old, to learn to STUDY again is TRAUMA! LOL. Not too bad so far, already in chapter 5 and only 2 nights of class, so very fast paced...not sure how I did on the 2 tests we had....I know the one with 35 questions I missed 5....UGH so gonna have to read more on the laws.

Hubby and I both have been suffereing with terrible back pains, I have for a few weeks been hitting the chiropractor twice a week, and still no relief,. man pain is terrible and I ant sleep well at night, just miserable! Been doing over time at work and still do reiki on the side and school and garden its starting to catch up with me I guess! Does this mean Im not 20 any more? :(

The garden has been good to me, Im still picking Zuc's and tomatoes, got 1 row of beets to do and of course spuds in the ground but other than that the rest are done. So soon will come to a close too.

We went out to supper tonight with some friends that we have not seen forever from SD. I noticed on the drive down that the bean fields are starting to turn.. I know this means harvest is right around the corner for us!

Oldest is back in Marshall and settled back into the college life and loves it! This weekend our youngest went down there to stay with her sister and hang out before her high school classes begin next week,...yep fall is right around the corner!

Hope you all have a great weekend and a safe one! Till next time~
