Happy National Cheeseball Day
Happy Birthday: Kelly April 17 / Katherine April 19
Prayer: Bill recovery / Becky & Charlie move transition
Good morning from NC.
Jessica and I took the girls to the beach Monday through Thursday. We had nice weather, spent 2 days on the beach and celebrated Aitana’s 16th birthday Tuesday, April 11, with some shopping and dinner out.
We had a nice weekend. Brian and Jessica did some landscaping. Dean mowed since there was a break in the rain.
Dean has his follow up visit with the doctor today, going to see when he can schedule his other knee replacement surgery.
I am scheduled to get my cast off on Thursday and looking forward to planting some flowers and herbs.
Have a blessed week,
Love,
Gatha
Good Tuesday morning from sunny Florida!
We had a great week. Just 1 dental appointment!
I kept busy putting up Soring decor and putting out summer decor!
Bill is recovering slowly. Still has no appetite or get up and go! He did walk through Sam’s club and the grocery store on Saturday. Fixing meals here is problematic because he does not feel like eating.
Last week we got the screen over the pool replaced, since Rocky fell through it. What a mess, but it’s all cleaned up now the pool is clean and chemicals adjusted. I was back in the pool Saturday and Sunday.
Yesterday I took it upon myself to trim up the mamouth white bird of paradise! I trimmed all the dead stuff out and cut down 2 rather large stalks that were over the cage. Bill was in charge of putting the ladder in place with my help. I was way up there! Had to saw stalks in 3 peices to get one down. I have one stalk I cut the top off and left it to see what happens. I cleaned the dead and brown birds that bloomed and died out. We had a trash can full!
It looks so much better.
I plan on spending more time back in that garden after we finish with 2 dr appointments for Bill.
Love, prayers and Big Hugs

Our pool is open for another season, green to clean in 3 days. Kids don’t seem to understand why I can’t just fire up the propane heater and shoot the temp up about 20 degrees. Amazing how fast a 500 gallon propane tank will empty.
Working on expanding our garden this year, had a friend come by and turn over a small 12’x18′ spot with his plow. Hoping to crank out some salsa this fall. Still have to finish putting in a fence around it to keep out the deer and rabbits, but it’ll be nice to have some fresh veggies again soon.
On an amusing note…Brit’s cousin was fascinated at our “fancy” grocery list. I use Life360 to tag our grocery stores, home improvement stores, etc. I’ve tied Alexa in with Life360 using a low-code programming software; when we add an item to one of our lists in Alexa, when we arrive a location that is associated with that list we get a push notification on our phones with the list. Anyway…apparently when I say raspberry pi…everyone jumps to a food. No. Its not a food. She’s asking me how we do this and I’m saying go get a raspberry pi…and she’s assumed I’ve lost my mind, since what on earth does a raspberry pi have to do with Alexa and the grocery list??? After wondering why Brit and her cousin are both laughing hysterically…I finally figure out not everyone knows a Raspberry Pi (not pie) is a small computer.
Back to work, lunch, unfortunately, is over.
