Thursday thoughts

We went to Oregon a week ago. We were looking at an area we are planning to move to in September.
This view is from our train ride home somewhere in Washington.

We ate in a restaurant in Oregon and all of the tables had pictures, newspaper articles, well you name it and was there on the table under layers of shellac or a sealant of some sort.
I found some old music books and one had this song...Meditation.
My husband woke up yesterday covered in this rash so we went to the hospital and when I say covered...it's head to toe. Today he has a blister under his eyelid.
A medication side effect, not allergic reaction, but a side effect.
It's called Stevens Johnson Syndrome.
I was told that when his skin starts to peel off, to get him back to the hospital.

Oh and when we came home from Oregon on the train the first train was late and broke down, so we were sent by bus to Portland. We were almost there and the bus driver calls out,"Does anyone know the address of Portland's Union Station?"
Neither of the bus drivers knew how to get there. Imagine a bus full of frustrated people calling people who are waiting for them and saying, "You're never gonna believe this one!"
We finally made it...a bit late, but we got there.
Then on the connecting train to home, I just happened to start to video something and this message came across...
click the video to hear.

Que Sera Sera, Whatever will be, will be



I have a lot going on here in my world.
So much I can hardly get my thoughts straight.
I just keep singing this song to myself, so darn it, I HAD to find it and now I'd like to share it with you.

Twenty Five

years that is!
DH and I were married twenty five years ago today in a small place called The Love Chapel on the California/Nevada border in Lake Tahoe.
I remember that Reverend Raymond L Love wore a lot of bling and well, it was fun.

surprise surgery


Well, my trigger finger took hold and wouldn't release, so my doc did surgery this morning!

check out the orange spray tan ...
No, it's just the stuff the slop on for surgery.

I was barely home and Logan crawled up on my hand and settled in my elbow.
He seems to always do this after a surgery.
I guess he's putting his healing mojo on it.
Well, getting woozie, time for a rest.
I'll post again sooner...

Bones


While I was outside on the phone with a friend, I noticed these tiny bones in the rocks.
They are obviously from one of Scratch cat's snacks.
I picked them up because they are itty bitty and kind of interesting.

Stuff


This glass sculpture is in my Neurosurgeons office.

It's beautiful.



These are the matchboxes from a recent swap. I made the crows.

:)
I know this wasn't much of a post, but I thought I'd better make a new post.
