One of THOSE days...

It's one of those days. I've nothing to say. That rarely stops me. I will just include what is happening in my little corner of the woods.

Oldest Son and Daughter-in-law are flying home from Oxford on Thursday. We will make a quick trip to Illinois to welcome them back. I am excited.

My parents are both feeling somewhat better after having endured skin cancer surgery, gout and high potassium levels in the past week.

One of my 'granddogs' was fixed yesterday. He survived. We visited him in his affliction, and brought him a box of 'good boy' treats.

I've done fabulously purchasing books at the thrift store this week. Several really nice hardcovers.

My three year old friend is coming to play today. I will not have to cook, as she thinks that all we ever eat is pizza. Wouldn't want to disappoint her.

I'm feeling overwhelmingly sad for the pain and suffering of so many people that I know. Is there any worse feeling than not being able to eliminate the pain and suffering and heartbreak? If there is, I do not know what it is, and I do not want to know.

I will end this with gratitude to God that evil does not win in the end. Thank You for that. It sure does look that way as we muddle around in the middle, and a reminder that it isn't over yet helps.

For having nothing much to say, this is an interesting post, Judy! Got your email...am off for a few days but will respond later. But had to comment here on the gout problem...cherries will take care of that problem. I have an email someplace from a friend who cans cherries each year for her husband to keep the gout at bay. You can use the dried ones as well. Works better than any meds...takes away pain and swelling both. So later on will send that information if you would like to have it. Also, hubby has now been off his diabetes meds for almost a month...still doing fine...diet and juicing does it. If you want more infor on that, will be happy to share as well.

Enjoy visit with son and wife! Sounds like they have had quite the adventure...have been reading their posts as well.
