Enjoying the weather


 This is from just a few short weeks ago... Copper was enjoying the warm wind that was blowing.  


And this describes me...I have been worthless this day.  So much I could have been doing but I have not done any of it except the things I absolutely had to do.  I have napped, and could easily go to sleep now but am afraid I would wake in the middle of the night and not be able to go back to sleep.

I wish I had thought to get a photo of the Apple Crisp thing my daughter made.  She got a thing of puff pastry, and placed it in the cookie sheet...on parchment paper.  She peeled and sliced her apples and I am sure added the spices.  I did not sit and watch so I am guessing.  She made an oatmeal topping.  And I think it is where she added pecans.  It was/is simply delicious.  I love puff pastry anyway.  But I could have eaten the entire thing, even without ice cream.  And I do love ice cream with apple pie or apple crisp.

I am hoping to get up and be a bit more energetic tomorrow...

Favorite subjects....


 What are your some of your favorite things to photograph?  Anyone that knows me, knows I love barns and birds and sunflowers..and if you have posted pics of chickens, I will almost always tell you they are one of my favorite subjects.  But I so seldom get to photograph any.   I don't know what it is about them...but I love both roosters and hens, and chicks and just wish I had more chances to take pictures of them.

I uploaded this pic earlier today and just now remembered to finish the post.  I have been busy...but part of that being busy was eating so I could have did it earlier.

I fixed a small pot of navy beans and ham...and then late made a pan of cornbread.  My kind...not the kind with sugar in it.  Roger used to like both kinds, but now doesn't really care for either.  He did enjoy the beans and ham, though.

It has been such a gray day here...and chilly if outside.  I think we are supposed to see some sun tomorrow...I am hoping that has not changed.  I need it.

A finish


 This one I love....

***********

We did see the new doctor.  I am going to have to get used to him.  Our other cardiologist was a one in a million doctor.  So I know it is going to take time.  This doctor was nice, and did not seem in a hurry.  Nothing negative at all about him. I just miss our other doctor. 

In the spring will do a echocardiogram to check his valve that was not closing good.  We are in hopes that the Repatha shots have helped.  I am not sure Roger could survive open heart surgery...with his chronic cough.

***********

I have been busy this day.  The daily run to Mcdonald's, vacuuming, using leaf blower on patio, having Copper in and out a couple times along with feeding him...breaking down boxes.  I cannot think what else...but there were other things.  I am going to post this...and not sure what next.
