THANKFUL

Hi to all my blogging friends. Just wanted to say I am very grateful to have my blogging friends, as well as family and friends.

Yesterday I worked in my yard pulling weeds,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,ugh my aching back. I sat in my massage chair (thank you husband) and today feel great.

It was chilly here in FL 50-60 degrees, so I shut our sliding glass door to the pool. We were having rocks delivered down by our water, and my husband started to go out thru the door to make sure they didn't run over our sprinklers, and BAM!!!!!!!!!!!!! He litterally ran into the glass door with his glasses on so hard, it knocked his knee and forehead with such force, he fell onto the table. I ran over there, grabbed a pillow and helped him fall.

He thinks he received a concussion, but would he go to doc????? of course not. So I got ice pack, an IBPHROPHINE, tucked him in bed because he was dizzy and was hurting. He didn't go to sleep, which is a nono when u hit your head.............I fixed him a hot bowl of beef stew and he said to me "why did you shut that door, it is always open" HAHAHA! I know it hurt because I have done that before, as well as my two nephews who were here with us a couple of months ago. BUT, when I DID IT, he said, "don't you know that door is there, it's been there all this time"!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Did I say that to him? of course I did! But only the next day. ha!

So I am thankful my husband Bill is good, and so am I.
I can walk/see/smell/taste
I am thankful for my family's health.
I am thankful my brother-in-law Moh is still living and just had his 4th chemo last Thursday in Tunis. And, last but not least, GOD IS GOOD AND LOVES US.

I am so glad Bill is fine after this sort of common accident and he is lucky to have you there by his side.
what are the rocks for? are they for a rock garden?

Hi anglolibyan. Yes Bill and I are not only husband/wife, but best friends.

The rocks are to keep our dirt/sand from eroding and washing into our canal. Our back yard is sloped and mostly sand, and has been slowly but surely washing away. The main reason for this is after hurricane Charley hit us, 2 years ago, we had sod put in, and paid alot of money for it. But it contained many weeds, (when I would pull weeds, nothing was there to hold it, and of course I didn't know that!)) which has been loosening the soil because now there is not much to compact it. So now I am pulling the weeds again, adding dirt/compost/peat moss and then planting ground cover with flowers............and then I will have my little/big rock garden. Talk soon, and thanks for visiting my blog..
