Good morning to you ladies. I looked at our forecast and we have nothing but upper 90 temps through next week. Possibility of some thunderstorms, but not much. We were out yesterday afternoon and it got dark and cloudy, lots of thunder booming and we saw lightening from cloud to ground, but I don't think we got one drop of rain here. They must have somewhere in the area because there were flash flood watches out, but the midsouth area covers not only Memphis, but Arkansas, Mississippi and the north and to the east of Memphis so it could have been a 100 miles away for all I know.
Maggie: Kelly has a time of it with migraines, but hers start out without warning as a headache. She is on medication for it, but it really debilitates her when they come on. I have only had one and I was pregnant with Jay so you know how long ago that was. I thought I was going to die so I do know what you folks that suffer with it experience. Glad you got your charms and got them all on your bracelet. Well, look at it this way, would you rather have a 4.6 oz bracelet on your arm or a quarter pounder with cheese in your belly since they are the same weight!
Susan: We are just awful, awful here. One thing I imagine the pool is warming up very nicely. I have yet to get over there, but I am going to go today. I am having problems with swelling of my feet and legs badly, I think from the bp meds so it might help relieve them some. I have tried everything from really pushing fruit high in potassium to cold packs and nothing works to bring down the swelling or alay the leg cramps. I have two dr appts next week, one for the hormones and one for the bp so I imagine both are going to change.
Jean: I bet your fingers and tootsies are all beautiful now! Only a few more days and you get to be with your friends and family so that will be nice. We look everyday to see how Florida panhandle beaches look even though we aren't going until Sept and they are still clean and beautiful. We have planned a pirate ship that tours the waterways, a paddleboat murder mystery dinner, a visit to a gulf marine park, a visit to a winery where their products are all very fruity type wines, tropical and such and pier park which is shopping, restaurants and the like. They have a Hofbrau Haus there so we will try to get in and have some German food, visit at least one of their seafood restaurants and such. I am looking forward to just going and relaxing poolside with kids being back in school, parents vacations over and college students back in school it should be fairly quiet there I would think.
Finished T's sock and am feverishly working on the doctor's. Almost have one done and ready to graft the toe so I hope I can finish the other one no later than Monday and get them washed and blocked. I just hope they fit him. He is so thin that I made a narrow foot on the sock (here are the two of them finished) so I hope it fits. They are thicker socks as they are sport weight, but if he feels they are too heavy he can always wear them for fall scout campouts and such. After all, he will be going into boy scouts soon and the colors reflect boy scout colors! lol
Well gals, I need to do my chores, get some breakfast and in a couple hours go swimming. Have a grand day all! Faye
