I made it out alive having two active dogs in house. My daughter had a nice trip however now has upper respiratory infection. I hope she does not have my pneumonia! It is always something...

We are traveling back to our home town again and attempting to empty out hubbys family home (brother lived there until his untimely death) so we can put it on the market. It has been vacant almost two years. All sibling will be helping out for a week. I don't feel like going but I am going anyway. Agree Kay, can't stay down too long, just like you.

Take care

Good luck with the cleaning out the house!
That is usually a huge job.
Don't hurt yourself and take breaks and drink plenty of fluids.

I can't do a lot, but can help out with taking things to donate and go through books and such.

I might strip wall paper at dads new home. There is a boarder of wall paper that must go in one bedroom, before we can paint the last bedroom. We plan on being there a week. Get to see my sister.

My youngest son and his wife have graciously offered to watch our dog so we don't have to take her with us. Makes things so much easier.

I hope everyone is feeling better. Thinking good thought for you all.

I am recovering from pneumonia, which took a lot out of me. All the coughing has caused a flare of crps in my neck and back. Kind of a bummer but I am happy to be able to get out of bed and keep moving.

Watching my daughter's dog during her mini vacation. He is the brother of my female mini astralian Shepard. The two of them together are a bit much. I wish I had a fenced yard. They are very active.

Take care

Just catching up with posts. Didn't realize you had pneumonia. Are you on those big antibiotic pills for now?

Don't you just love to paint and get a home ready for sale. I used to do that for my landlord to work off my rent, it was great therapy.

Hope you are feeling better !!

Hello everyone! I am still at my father's helping with his new place. We painted master bathroom and smallest bedroom. Wallpaper removal was a bit more difficult than it should have been. We got it done and the walls look great, for a 50 plus year old home. Had an adjustable temperpedic bed delivered today. I feel better having him in a safe, ranch style home and a better bed for his back.
80 plus years young. I worry...

Getting hubby's family home emptied and ready for sale. What a job! 60 years of stuff. His siblings are helping all week.

Mental health is not to be taken for granted. We struggle everyday with things others may take for granted. Tread lightly.

Take care

Hi All,

My father has settled in well. He is such a busy man. He now is having his huge oversized garage sided (currently not vinyl siding some other product that require painting) and house( which is aluminum sided) painted to match. I helped him with getting bids etc during our visit and we decided on a company. Will start this project end of September as this is a very busy season for siding work. The problem is his home he moved from was all brick, solid and maintenance free. This place is smaller and needed some TLC. But in a much better neighborhood and safe. He likes it but needs things just so. Mean while my summer projects have been put on hold, again. I did pick a paint color for my master bath. It has a grey or light blue silver mist color involved but need to get a sample.

I am feeling better. Going to see my primary MD's backup today, as my primary is on vacation for two weeks. Need med adjustment now and she will listen I hope.

I hope this post finds you all feeling as good as possible. I have crawled out of a big hole and can see the light. Finally!

Take care
