THIS AND THAT

 

Hello, friends!  Thought I would just give you a this and that (and that and this) post today.  I have some photos I want to share with you and this will give me that opportunity.

I can't remember if I showed you the Peeps bunny that my friend Debbie gave me.  So here it is.

This was the first Peeps I got this year.  And as you can guess it is gone.  I love my Peeps!

Spring is here even though the weather is kind of cold still.  Well, it's warming up some because I am now wearing a jacket or sweater and not a coat.  I know things are warming up because the trees are blooming.  Here is a sunset I took a picture of the other day and you can see the pretty trees.

I put out a few Easter things, but not a lot.  I'm so into cleaning out the house and getting rid of things that decor has gone by the wayside.  But I did get out my Easter egg bowl and we have filled it with jelly beans and chocolate eggs several times now.  I say several because those things don't last long around here.  We walk by, grab a few, and the next thing you know they are gone!  Well, I get them just once a year.  Not good for my waistline though.

Some of you may remember my favorite polka dot sunglasses that I wore everywhere last year.

I LOVED those glasses.  I bought them at Target for $13 and they were the best pair I have ever had.  But...  about six weeks ago I pulled them out of my purse and they had broken in half at the nose piece.  *sob*  No way to fix them.  Sadly I put them into the trash.  I have some cheap glasses that I keep in the car and I have been wearing them if I need them.  But they aren't polarized and glare resistant and all that other good stuff.  I got them in the Dollar Spot at Target for...  well, for a dollar.  Joe and I were at Rite Aid the other day and he told me to pick out a new pair of sunglasses and he would buy them for me.  This is the pair that I got.

I like the little design on the side of them.  They are a nice shape on my face also.  They aren't my sweet little polka dot ones, but they are nice.  I would have gotten another pair like the ones that broke, but I haven't seen them anywhere.  But if I do...  well, you know I will pick them up.

Finally, I was talking with my sister yesterday and she said she was having our grandmother's goulash for dinner.  Hmm, I thought.  I have ground beef defrosted and that might be easy for me to eat.  So I made it too.  So good.

It did go down easy and didn't make me sick.

I am going to have my esophogus procedure next Tuesday.  Hopefully in a few days I will be able to eat and not have the huge banging in my chest that makes me feel as if I am having a heart attack.  I have to have a liquid and soft food diet for a week and then slowly introduce solid food back in.  If it doesn't work, the doctor will do one more procedure before it is surgery to remove the scar tissue and more of my stomach with it.  I am praying it doesn't come to that and this procedure next week will do the trick.

Now I have to run and get ready for Bible Study.  I am planning to finish up Hebrews 11 this week.  Last week only one person showed up so we just prayed and talked.  I know at least two people are coming this week, so I most likely will be teaching.

Hope you all have a wonderful day!

Until later...
