Just thinking

 I need to get to bed,  I have prepared pancake batter for breakfast   Maybe a fish fry for the afternoon meal.  WE only have two real meals aday so that makes things simpler.

I am fine and Sherry is doing well.  Her blood pressure still is not under control.  One day is reads 125/60 the next it is 156 over 80 . a wide range. But she does have that thing they call White-Coat Syndrome. At the Dr's office it is OFTEN up to 200/90.  It ia scary.  NOW she tells me she was VERY worried about me.

From my heart, I just want to take the time tonight to say thank all of you who read here, THANKS!!

I have learned over the years that many friends and family read this to keep up with us.  

In that regard, I feel like a friend whom I asked the other day, "And how are you doing?"

He smiled and asked, "In reference to what?>"  We both just stood there and laughed.

So to everyone who is concerned, in reference to most 80-90 folks I know, "We are doing great!!"

As most of  you know, it takes a lot to keep a house and house hod going. Trimming trees, cutting grass, maintain an older home, getting groceries, cooking and cleaning. Our schedule is tight.  Sherry is kicking in now, today she celebrated national Hot dog day and fixed hot dogs for me and the sons.  LOL  We had a good time.  I have about finished remodeling the bathroom and an area for her Vanity table.  

I am thinking about a family fish fry tomorrow.  I had better getto bed.

Love it that you guys read here.

Thanks for letting us know you two are doing great. Sounds like you are keeping busy there so it's back to normal at your house. That is great! Love you all !

I just read your newer post and heard that the fish fry and pancakes were all great. That's wonderful. Now I'd love a good fish fry with real hush puppies. Sounds like you are keeping very busy. Yes, older houses (or any house) do keep us on our toes with maintenance. Are you planning to stay put now and no more traveling? I hope you enjoy being "home". Blessings for you both.
