Well, nothing too exciting going on to write about, just a lot of the "usual" which as you know is work, sleep, eat, work, sleep, eat, not necessarily in that order.
Granddaddy's shingles have gotten much better but are in the 'itchy' stage so that is quite uncomfortable for him. Got some Cortizone 10 for the nurses to put on him a.m. and p.m. and that is helping a lot.
He seems to be getting adjusted to the room in the nursing home - it's just so much smaller than his apt., I'm sure it is a big adjustment. The people have all been super nice and treat the people there so well, I am so grateful for that. He is getting a bit stronger physically and is not so shaky, so that is a big answer to prayer. I sure don't want him to fall and break a hip or something and be laid up from now on. At least he has the "freedom" to be up and around a little bit, which is huge at his age!
I have a bad head cold so I'm rather miserable. Which means it's time to go home and take a few big chugs of Nyquil and hit the sack and hope for some sleep! Can't go by and visit G'd because I sure don't want to spread my germs to him or any of the other residents there; it could be deadly for some of them. They don't have very strong immune systems.
The weather is very nice out this week - in the 60's and 70's, but real windy today; too bad I don't feel good enough to enjoy it. Might get some rain this weekend but hopefully, no more snow for the season. I'm ready for spring and some nice weather and a little working in the yard. I need to take some vacation time and head "back home" to see the family and especially the little 'great nephew!' He is growing so fast it makes my head spin! Don't want him to grow up not knowing who "Auntie J" is so gotta make trips back home as often as possible! Sent him some books recently and included a little note w/ a photo of hubby and me so he would see who it was from and his mom said he knew right away and started talking about certain places and people related to his trip out here! What a memory for such a little fella!
There is much more I could tell, such as about my trip to Houston, recent funeral, job offers and other stuff, but I'm not feeling "up to par" so this blog will be very short (for me).
Goodbye for now!

man! i came, i had lunch with you...and I didn't even get an honorary mention in the blog. Waaaa! =)
OH MERCY ME! How could I have forgotten such a momentous occasion as having the RARE lunch date with my dearest niece!!! Blame it on my horrible head cold - it must've blocked some of my meomory cells from functioning! I had a million things I could've/should've written about but I just couldn't think straight! Seriously!
