I was worried about stepping on the scale this morning, because when I stepped on it last night, it showed I was up a pound. This morning I weighed in and it shows I am down a pound for this week. It seems crazy how that works. I stepped on it again 2 more times, and it still shows I am down a pound. So I am happy about that.

Today we went to an old car show which was nice. Afterwards we went to another strawberry festival and craft fair. It was overcast this morning, but beautiful weather. The afternoon is still nice weather, but sunny. It was a nice day.

I hope you had a nice horse show. Have a terrific Sunday!

Sounds like you had a very nice day yesterday. It rained here in the morning, but the sun came out before I had to leave for the show. I had a fun time and we got 2 second place ribbons. Both classes we went in were timed, so we did better than expected. I have another show today. My classes are in the morning, so I will be home early. I need to replant the beans. It's been so cold and wet they rotted before they could germinate.

Enjoy your Sunday!

It was a beautiful day today with sunshine. I bought some sunflower seeds this afternoon and planted them this evening. I decided not to plant anything on the back wall of the house because it doesn't get too much sunshine or rain. So I just have the one wall to share with my lilies.

There was a humming bird flying around our bird feeder a few days ago. Now I want to get a feeder for hummingbirds too. Earlier, my husband said to buy some good stuff for them and not just sugar water. I don't know anything about the stuff, so I checked out the supplies at Lowe's and Wal-Mart today. Looks like it all is just sugar water. There was one bottle with electrolytes too. I saw some feeders keep out the bees and other birds. Some were said to be ant proof, but I don't know what is, so I don't know if I believe that. I asked my husband about what we should choose, and now he said nothing. He wants the hummingbirds to go to the flowers instead and do their job of pollination. Oh well, guess he has a point.

Wow, good job at the horse show on Saturday! Steel and your are champions!

Tip of the Day:

There comes a day when you realize
turning the page is the best feeling in the world-
because you realize there's so much more to the book
than the page you were stuck on.

I have 2 hummingbird feeders up. Please don't buy the red solution they sell. The red dye isn't good for them. Make your own syrup. It's 1 cup of water and 1/4 cup sugar. Heat to boiling and let cool. Buy a feeder with bee excluders.

We had a good show yesterday and got home before the rains came. But, I really hurt my knee and am in agony. It had been bothering me for the last month or so. The pain is on the outside edge, not the kneecap. It's not swollen, but the pain is awful. It travels all the way down to my foot. I'm going to make an appointment today with an ortho doctor.

Well, I found out what's going on with my knee. I have iliotibial band syndrome, plus fluid behind my knee and worn meniscus. So, I'm taking an anti inflammatory, and will go back for physical therapy. I'm also getting a brace to wear for awhile. It was funny when he said he sees it mostly in long distance runners!

Raining here again!!!!!!

I am so sorry to hear about your knee pain and your suffering! :( You must be in agony. The last few days must have been quite an ordeal for you every time you move. I hope the doctor gave you something for the pain too. Maybe the anti-inflamatory helps. Your secret is out now. We know what you do at night, run marathons (in your sleep). ;) Can Chris help you out for a few days with the horses? You should probably let it rest for at least a couple of days....yes even if you think you are wonder woman. Take care of it now, so it can last longer to take care of you later. :hug: I hope the healing process goes quickly and smoothly for you.

I'm still able to take care of the horses, I just go a little slower. The pain is starting to subside a bit.

Finally the sun is going to shine!

Have an awesome day!

The sun finally was shining! We planted the beans again. Now it needs to warm up. It was 43 here this morning!

The knee is a bit better. The therapy place called to confirm my appointment for tomorrow morning. They said my insurance company would bill me $750.00 for the brace! I think I will do without it!

Have a great day!

That's crazy. $750 for the knee brace!!! That is robbery. They are taking advantage of your situation. You will have to get Sam to make one for you, or just make your own splint, or go without one all together. My, oh my.

Lovely weather here. A few days now, and still need a week or so before I see any signs of sunflowers. Sunflowers, yeah! Sunflower Power. :)

Have a Happy Friday!

My knee seems a little bit better. I go for a therapy evaluation today. I'm hoping I can do the exercises at home.

Still chilly here this morning at 42 degrees. I planted some dill, parsley and oregano yesterday. We're going to cut some hay tomorrow if the weather still looks good.

Have a great weekend!

I hope all works out well for your knee and you can do the exercises at home too.
I wore a sweatshirt this morning because it was cool while walking, and the moon looked beautiful.
So very big. Fields here are dusty and dry. Jack stirs up a dust trail just running across the field.

My sunflowers seeds have sprouted, and looking promising so far. I'm happy about that.

Weigh-in tomorrow. I don't look forward to that. I didn't try very hard this week I have to admit.
Need to kick my motivation up a level. I know what I need to do, just need to do it and stay at it.

No change for me.....again :(

Good news about my knee. Went to see the therapist yesterday and he said I don't need a brace. He showed me some exercises to do the stretch the tibial band. It's feeling better, now I hope I don't overdo it again....

We're hoping to cut some hay today. I'm so excited for the heat wave coming. I love hot weather!

Change for me this week, 2 lbs, but in the wrong direction. That stinks.

I'm glad your knee is feeling better and you don't have to wear a brace. That is good news.

It was very warm here today. Worked on bills. Just a quiet day. Tomorrow should be even warmer. My lilies have buds so it won't be long now.

Need to figure out how to get things moving again. Need to get a new computer too, this one is getting really bad for me to use.

Have a great Sunday!

We cut some hay yesterday. My job is to move any fawns before they get run over. I had 2 saves. One was about 2 weeks old. I just had to herd him over to another field. The second one was only a day or so old. I picked him up and moved to the stone row. Sam never even saw him...it was a close call for the fawn.

Did I tell you my tame deer had twins? They are adorable!

Going to be a scorcher today.

Have a blessed Sunday!

Scorcher of a day for sure. We have our AC back on and airing out for now. Hope it smells better by tonight. We went to a super Walmart today to stay cool and shop around a bit.

Wow, I'm glad you saved the deer. That must have been very close. Twins! No you hadn't told me yet about them. How sweet.

Have a happy Monday!
