Have not written on my blog since May.  Now that I retired on 8/30/13 I should have more time for writing.  Had surgery for a bowel obstruction in June.  Was in the hospital from 6/12/13-6/21/13 and that threw us off getting the house ready to sell.  Was off work six weeks.  Worked half days the first week that I went back and by the end of the second week I decided it was time to retire.  Gave my notice to retire 8/30/13.  Was like a weight lifted off my shoulders when I finally gave a date.

Bob has  been stripping the wallpaper in the bedroom and painting it.  Is a long dirty process but now only needs a little touch up here and there.  Next is the bathroom.  Wish we could get this work done and get the house up for sale.  Having new windows put in the back and end of house and new closet doors in upstairs closets.  Paid half for this on July 1st, still waiting  as the windows had to be ordered.  Got a call last week that the windows are in town and he will put them in this week.  I sure do hope they get done.  Long wait.

The blessing for spring/summer is Dayton Tully, great grandson.  Congratulations Nick.  He is adorable and I an so anxious to see and hold him.  Will be soon.

On Aug 20 I had a paracentesis and felt so much better afterwards.  Drained off 5.5 liters of fluid that had built up.  During the CT scan for that it was discovered the tube from left kidney to bladder was partially blocked so had a stent inserted on 8/26/13.   Hope it works and no more problems. 

I plan to try to load up some pictures with help from Sherie of course.

Today I want to try to cover a chest that I will sell.  The fabric is all torn and have denim to cover it with.
Will write more later in the week.
