Surgery

Sorry that I haven't blogged in a long while.

A lot has been happening that has my world upside down.

One of those things evidently happened about the time the previous post pictures were taken.

I ruptured the disc in my back between L5 & S1 vertebrate.

It was diagnosed on December 18, 2008 and I had surgery last Thursday, January 15, 2009.

I am not allowed in a car for 2 weeks and no lifting or work for 8 to 12 weeks.

Plus, I am having some other problems that have kept me from working.

Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers for the next few months, so that I can physically and mentally heal.

Getting ready for Christmas...

With a lot of help from my son, grandson, and son-in-law, they got the exterior of out house decorated for Christmas.

The propeller on SNOOPY's plane goes around.

We made a runway for SNOOPY and his plane in our front yard.

Santa can use it too, on Christmas Eve.

Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Trick or Treat...

Street walking for candy. Brad found out that if you empty your bucket every 3 houses, you can get more candy. People think that you don't have any candy so they give you more than just 1 piece at a time. Not realizing that the main stash is in the wagon mom is pulling behind her.

They all three had a great time together. And at every house singing in chorus... "TRICK OR TREAT"!
