Nice car, Sandy. Hope Nic likes it.
Been trying to rest as much as possible today. Watching the NASCAR all-star race right now. Supposed to storm a little tonight. hope it clears by morning. Supposed to be a nice cool day tomorrow, and hoping I can get some yard work started.

yesterday was "Hog Day" and I took about 200 pix...
we started at dawn, and didn't finish up until 3 pm. it was unbelievable exhausting, but we had LOTS of help, thankfully. and we had a local "pro" to help with the hard parts. we made lard, sausage, chitlins (called chicharones here), froze some giant quarters, and hung strips to dry, preparatory to being smoked. then, we all sat down to a muy delicioso celebratory meal prepped by a Maya woman. to make the day complete, I got near-paralyzing foot/leg cramps at bed-time, and was close to tears. sent hubby to fetch the Baclofen, but alas, my bottle was EMPTY. so, today's GOAL is to go to the Farmacia, and try to refill... (gasp, moan) after we attend the big AG SHOW in the capitol. plans are for a brunch date, and a meet-up with a bunch of expats we know online. I'm going in well-prepped, with ankle-supports, and AFOs (hidden by long gauzy skirt) and my cane... I don't know if I can handle it, but there's too many things I want to see there, and it's the only event of its kind, so I CAN'T miss it, argh !!! I'm dreading the start of the day, and STALLING by hanging out online before getting ready... oh, give me strength !!

Kay, Hope your day goes well and everything works out. LOL, I know all about the being online and stalling things.
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Beautiful morning here. Sun is shining. Have my cup of coffee. Still a little beat, but have some puttering to do. If I feel up to it, might start some yard work. But for now, that is on the "wait and see" list. Hope everyone has a good day.

That's right Renee! I don't care what they say about it being a civilian issue. It's not a civilian issue when he lied to his command and family services about it. He not only lied to them, he lied to you and abandoned his family in the process. While your at it, contact the base chaplain who will help you get things started.
