Spring-like weather.

Got my walk in today, felt sooooo good!! The weather was brisk, but just right for walking fast! Hopefully the rest of the week will be the same. My friend walked with me today, but she will not be at the center until Friday. Had two acquaintances die this week. :-( One, a man at the center who always picked up things from the grocery store for us to give out. Very nice and we will miss him. Then the wife of a fellow teacher. So sad, she had been battling cancer for some time. Seems to be all over the place. Don't you wish you could cure all cancer.!! My former walking partner's daughter is very ill with cancer too. Makes you appreciate good health!!! The weather is bringing out my Daffodils, another day and they will open. Just hope that we don't have another freeze and kill them!! My sweet peas are growing quite nicely. Can 't wait to have a nice bouquet of them!!! If the good weather keeps up, I will work in the garden soon, need to pull the weeds and turn over the soil to ready the ground for some new plants. Our trip to the valley was nice, Mother in law liked the apple pie I baked for her, and she was doing a bit better. She will be 93 on Thursday. My son will be 48 tomorrow, and he is my baby. I must be getting old to have one that old, right? Well, as yet, I don't feel that old. Hope that lasts a long time. :-) Antique Rose

  1. I'm sorry to hear about your friends Ma. Yes, I wish there was a cure for cancer. So much suffering because of cancer. :-(
    I'm glad you don't feel 'that old'...and that you and Pa are healthy and happy.
    Love you lots and I'm sending you lots of virtual hugs!!

  2. So sorry about your friends, too. I cannot believe you have daffodils already and are pulling weeds! I think it way too soon for them, but we just saw robins in our yard. I hope they brought their coats and scarves with them.
