I am working tomorrow, so had today off as my free day. I got up fairly early and got a lot done. I cleaned the living room, straightened the dining room, got a load of wash done and made an apple and cranberry pie. The last time I made it was right after my surgery last year when I couldn't eat solid food. So at least tonight I could eat it and it was really good.
Our friends Carole and Walt came over for dessert tonight. We have not had them over in a long time and it was really nice spending time with them again. We showed them our pictures from Williamsburg on the computer. But I found out that they are all mixed up because we used two different cameras. Now I have to go through them and put them in order. That is going to take some time.
As I was straightening up for their visit tonight I leaned over to pick up a bag of recycling to take outside and threw my back out. I am in so much pain and can hardly move. I don't know how I am going to work tomorrow, but I have to show up because I am the only one there tomorrow with a key to the library. If I don't come, no one can get inside. I can't even leave early because I have to lock up at the end of the day. Sigh.
Well we have a winner in my giveaway from last week. I wrote down the names of the three entrants and put them in a bowl and drew one out. The winner is Linda! Congratulations, Linda. Please email me your address and I will send the potholders to you next week.
My view for this Friday is rather unusual. Here it is November, it's already snowed, and my roses are blooming and I even have new buds. This is really strange.
I hope this comment finds you feeling better.
ReplyDeleteNever heard of Snow and Roses, grest combination.
Congrats to Linda on winning! Enjoy the potholders.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about the roses. My yellow are blooming but not the red ones. What really surprised me is that my coleus is totally weeds. I didn't think anything could do that so fast! They are so hardy. Oh well.... I do miss their bright colors. They'd grown to 2 feet tall &
almost as wide.
Backs are really delicate in some ways. A certain turn, lift, whatever can really cause pain. I hope you feel better soon.
