Tunafish

 I decided that turna fish sandwiches would make a satisfactory dinner tonight ... and evidently the cats, Jack and Tigger , did too. As soon as the can opener went to work they were both waiting... waiting.. waiting for their "tunajuice" - the liquid that come in a can of tuna packed in water. I divided the liquid into two cat dishes and they licked them clean... added the empty can on the floor for Tigger which he also made super clean!!

There are a few people -food things they really like - tuna juice and deli sliced chicken , turkey or roast beef!! I don't buy deli meats very often so it really is a treat for them!!

more small steps to normalacy

 Am working my way... sleeping in my bed and not the recliner and sleeping longer!! Hooray! Getting to the point where I can use my right arm... like brushing my teeth!

I have been adding flowers and herbs to my boxes on the deck's railings. Since the deck is on the second floor plants get dry quick... which meant lugging water from the kitchen to the plants. Not any longer! we purchased a hose that is narrow and curly to attach to the faucet on ground level... just go downstairs, turn on the water and "voila" I can water my flowers and herbs. We'll see how successful this is in August when Blue Springs gets really hot and sunny!

Bob and I bought Cirque du Soleil tickets at a fundraiser auction  for teacher daughter and her  family. The show as yesterday afternoon and they all enjoyed it!!! The seats were fantastic and in a suite... up high so they could see everything!!

School is done for the year... for the first time in all my daughter's years of teaching ( 21 plus) she will not be teaching summer school... we are planning some fun stuff!

Back finally

 I can finally type on my keyboard... another fall left me with a wrenched right arm, lots of bruising and so on. Bob has been my chauffeur for everything such as doctor's appointments, grocery store and so on.

I sleep alternating between bed and recliner... and doing things such as eating, brushing my teeth, getting dressed or undressed had been the pits...

but I am getting back to normal..
