On sunday hubby and I went down to the river...

the Trinity River bottoms...

the water is way down....

the water last year was a lot deeper...

it was so nice down there...

peaceful...

my morning glories are going to seed...

if you would like some let me know by e-mail...

I would love to share my bounty...

debsladybugtexas@aol.com...

thank you so much for your thoughts and prayers

regarding my FIL...

we are still playing the waiting game...

he is still trying to escape...

he is now on a different floor...

his room is right across from the nurses station...

and they have alarms set up...

The ants go marching one by one...

Horray Horray....

The ants go marching one by one...

the little one stopped to play his drum...

and they all go marching home...

Horray Horray...

do you ever feel like a ant just marching along????

this has been a week like that...

hopefully this week will be smoother..

Happy Halloween to everyone that celebrates...

Happy Fall day to all others...

New day....new week...

pumpkin patch

Thank you everyone for the well wishes for my FIL...

we are still waiting on tests...

he has gallstones...

they need to remove the gallbladder..

but he has a leaky heart valve which can cause issues..

tomorrow they will run a scope to check his heart..

to see if he will be able to have surgery or not...

He is 80 years old and has dimentia...

so far he has had to have security in his room...

he suffers from sundown syndrome...

at night he gets very disoriented...

especially when he is not at home...

he has hit and kicked nurses...

accused them of taking his wallet...

he escaped to the parking lot yesterday...

had to spend the afternoon in the nurses station...

he is not an easy patient.....so this makes

treating him even harder...

Tonight we are celebrating my Moms 65th birthday...

believe it or not we will have the whole family together...

will be a welcome break....

Reflections

today was an unusual day....

after a late night watching our Rangers...

lost by one run in over time...

 getting a phone call from my FIL's doctor...

stating he needed to come in immediately...

he had blood work done the day before...

then heading straight to the emergency room...

his pancreas...his galbladder...

now trying to decide on treatment...

that won't effect his leaky heart valve...

Today I'm joining...

Weekend Reflections

I could of used this peacefulness today...

glad to be home...ready to read some blogs...

and reflect on my day....

Today I'm joining Friday Fences

what would we do without our baby gates....

they are definately a life saver....

We are cold here in Texas....

it started raining this afternoon...

thank you to all who responded to my last question...

Game 6 of the World Series...

Go Rangers....

calling all gardeners...

I need your advice....

I need suggestions of plants and or flowers....

to plant in my raised beds for the winter...

to add nutrition to the soil....

I'm not sure if it was the terribly hot summer...

or if the soil just wasn't ready for gardening...

but the only thing that grew was okra...

we are still getting some...

nothing else did good...

we've had a two day break from the world series...

needed it to get rested up...

sitting on the edge of your seat is tiring..

started working on holiday plans with the family...

it will be here before we know it....

I've been taking photos of my neighbors tree...

for a long time now....

today when little britches and I went for our walk...

this is what we saw...

they trimmed all the dead wood...

out of my spooky tree....

the place where birds have been meeting...

spring...winter...summer ...fall...

where will they hold their meetings...

it kinda made me sad....

it looks so bare over my fence without it...

it was like loosing a landmark...

I'm sure the neighbors don't even realize what they did...

It was a foggy morning

....

a week early for Halloween

......

too bad there weren't any birds in the dead tree

.........

it lasted until mid morning

....

a little on the eery side

.....

The Rangers are tied 2-2 in the 7th inning

another nail biter

.....

Just incase you were wondering

........

morning glory leaves

Good Morning...

or Afternoon...Evening....

depending on when you read this....

it was another nice weekend....

hubby and I went to the movies yesterday..

 

The Big Year

it was  about bird watching...

it had Steve Martin...Jack Black..

and Owen Wilson....I like all three...

we didn't realize it was about bird watching..

but really enjoyed it...

it was not a unforgettable movie...

but it was enjoyable...

plus we got in for matinee prices....

Rangers won...so it's tied 2-2

(after Saturdays loss we were sure happy)

Go Rangers.....

The sky is Falling...

the sky is falling....

well...not actually....

we did have quite a rainstorm blow through over night...

we slept right through it....

even the dogs...

guess we were wore out from the Ranger game...

unfortunately they lost...

we have another chance tonight...

GO RANGERS....

I did a little thrifting yesterday...

found a slide for little britches...

a mini radio flyer wagon for my Mom...

she already has it filled for Fall...

the wheels are turning for Christmas...

found some really cute fall tops for me...

there is something rewarding to me...

to get a bag full of goodies..

for what you would pay for one of the items...

at a Retail store...




 







 This week has flown by....

Can't believe it is already the weekend...

this post is taking me forever to do...

I don't know what is going on with it...

so I'm going to make it short and sweet...

Have a great day...enjoy your family...

enjoy your friends...

take a little time for yourself too...

(blogger is driving me nuts right now)

gonna leave before it acts up again...
