Best wishes on your testing, toomuchreality! Hope they tell you nothing but good news. Hope it's not raining hard enough to make problem driving, TheOtherMe. I love a good road trip, but not if it's storming.

toomuchreality fingers crossed for good results on your tests. My Mom ended up having a cardiac ablation done for her a-fib. It was a relatively simply procedure and she says she feels much better after having it done. TheOtherMe enjoy your trip to visit your ancestors cabin. That would be so cool to be able to see where long ago relatives lived. I'm still doing massive amounts of yard work. Today is showery so I'm taking a little slower pace this afternoon. My neighbor did bring a bunch more asparagus this afternoon so I will get that cleaned up, then blanche and freeze some of it.

Here's to good results toomuchrealityI hope if it rains they don't cancel opening the cabin. That is my fear now. That is the only reason I came this far.

The Other Me, I hope everything works out for your trip to NC. My descendants were Quakers that originally came from Germany in the 1600s and originally settled in Perquimins and Pasquotank counties. Over the generations many of them relocated in other areas of NC and eventually Ohio, Indiana, and the Midwest. I have many DNA matches with people in the Midwest. Good luck with your research! I’ve hit a brick wall on mine but I haven’t given up yet.

Thanks for all the good wishes, everyone! I truly do appreciate them.
Hopefully, in the morning, the girls (1 & just barely 4) will get some felt flowers on pipe cleaner stems made, for their mom for Mother's Day.
I'll have to leave just after noon, for my echocardiogram. If I need to, I can go back to their house afterward, to help them finish making the flowers. I really want the flowers to be made by them. Not me.
Happy Friday!

I’ve hit a brick wall on mine but I haven’t given up yet. This particular branch is from England and Scotland. Settled in North Carolina and then to Ohio, Indiana and Iowa. Of course, many have scattered now from Iowa. I did not know my paternal side were Quaker until I started this. I knew my maternal side was. Guess is the reason they ended up in the same area.

Good Morning Kids! It's another practically perfect morning. The sun is out, and the breeze is mild. If I owned a screen porch, it'd be a good day to sit outside & read a book. Unfortunately, the weathernerds are saying with our quick warm-up to expect to start seeing mosquitoes this weekend. I'm not ready for that... I love the idea of the pipe cleaner flowers, toomuchreality. What a sweet gift!

We got the flowers made. And his them in their dad's closet. I hope they stay there until Sunday. Hahaha The 4 yr old has already laid claim to the blue ones being hers, no matter how many times/ways I explain that they are for her mom. She keeps talking about sharing them and I don't want to find fault with that. Maybe by Sunday, she'll be over it and won't want any, anymore. You never know. And I'm sure her mom will share, if needed. They'll figure it out.
Such cute girls. ♡

Have a great weekend! Happy Mother's Day to all, no matter what you are a mother to! (Pet, food, cocktail, broom, human?) I hope you truly enjoy it! Or some part of it. ♡

The puppy is making me laugh right now. She's doing zoomies, where she runs like a crazy dog, between the dining room and the kitchen, in sort of a figure 8 pattern. I'm sure once she wears herself out there will be a nap in her future.

The stars were aligned today. I needed to run some errands after work today. It rained most of the day but cleared off long enough for me to get all my errands done. As I pulled into the driveway it started sprinkling again. My whole amazon order also showed up today so I won't need to ask DD to run by tomorrow and bring the packages in the house. They weren't showing as out for delivery and I was getting rather peeved. One of my errands was to the post office to get another roll of stamps. The post office workers were complaining about their internet being down and not being able to do so many things. That was my aha moment as to why my packages didn't show as out for delivery. When I got home they were on my front porch. One item I wanted to be sure and take to Mom this weekend. We just had a pretty good thunderstorm roll through. Things were really booming for a while.

How did your test go yesterday toomuchreality? Did you get your results right away or have to wait awhile?

Good Morning Kids! It's another practically perfect morning here. DD stopped by early this morning to take DS shopping, and then they'll have lunch together. I'm blessed that the two of them get along so well, as I know plenty of siblings who don't.

I was so busy yesterday I forgot my Friday greeting. But I am here. Done with the first of three May races -- finished third, so happy with that. Stopped at Walmart on the way home, then once home, fed the cats, started laundry, showered and had lunch. Also have some chicken marinating. Will serve it with fresh corn on the cob.

How did your test go yesterday toomuchreality? Did you get your results right away or have to wait awhile? They said I should hear from my dr in about a week. Thanks for asking. How have you been? Anything new going on? How's your family?

Anything new going on? How's your family? I was hoping you would check in tonight. I don't know for sure, but I "think" if something bad showed up, the person who did the test would have your doctor call you right away. At least I hope that is the way it works.
I'm fine. Finally got some spring weather today and had several windows opened. Hate "canned" air with a passion, so today was a welcomed surprise.
Hope you have a great day tomorrow !!

I'm glad you got some fresh air today. After I opened my door at around 10:30 this morning, I hated coming back inside and closing the door. The air outside felt and smelled so nice! Even though I have my windows open and my overhead fan, as well as my vac fan going, it felt stuffy inside. I hope they fix my a/c soon. They will be seeing me often in the office, if they don't. I don't think they want that, even though we get along well. Enjoy your day!

My brother family went out for brunch -- sent me pictures of huge omelettes, piles of hash browns and giant mimosas. Geez. I made blueberry pancakes this morning. I feel underfed. The mimosas did look amazing, though.

I guess I need to add turkey wrangler to my resume. This afternoon a little boy and his Dad came to my front door. The boys turkey had escaped and flown into my pasture. We went back there and I held guide him into a corner where the dad was able to pick him up. Once the Dad had him tucked under his arm the turkey was perfectly calm and down the street they all went.

Good Morning Kids! The angry bear wouldn't let me visit here for awhile. And, within the past hour, it was so dark outside that it looked like night instead of day. It must be Monday.

For the next few days I am babysitting during the day and dog sitting at night. I didn't get my clothes packed, so need to run home later and get them. I love all my grands!
