The Bees Knees!
So, the injection did not make me feel like a little kid
getting a vaccination, but it did smart a bit. Dr. Blackwell uses a large
needle so that it can be injected and emptied quickly. No sitting there waiting
for the stuff to go inside. Whew! This should help a bit with the crunchies,
but since it is bone on bone in there, it is not a repair but a patch like on
the highway. Good thing this knee does not belong on I-35.
Went to United earlier to take in the sale items in the 40%
off counter for meats. Brought some home that the dogs like and some that the
old woman likes. The fajita meat made a nice brunch that the dogs were most
willing to share. Silly critters. They thought they had hit the jackpot
yesterday since Patty had two taquitos and two slices of thick ham for them.
She had left the ham out on the counter accidentally and did not trust it to be
good after two hours out of the refrigerator. The dogs seemed to think it was
great.
Got an order from Amazon this morning that included the
dried liver for my dogs. They love this stuff. It is fairly large chunks of freeze-dried
liver in a resealable bag. Need to remember to take some to Roxie and see if
she likes it. One of the bags in the Amazon order was for rice, beans, powdered
milk, and black-eyed peas. These are just the basics that might keep me fed if
it is necessary. The news keeps saying that everything is about to go out of
sight expensive. Wouldn’t be the first time. Even the stupid covid that kept
everyone at home made things scarce. But some things are really not even that
necessary.
This next two weeks should be interesting. Passover is
coming up on Saturday evening (12th) along with the days of
unleavened bread. Then Easter will take place on the 20th of April.
Holocaust Day is the 23rd of April. Strange how things have worked
out this year. Remembering the millions of people who have died because of
their beliefs or because they did not “fit” the German model is more than sad.
Israel was given SO much more by God’s outline of land and rivers. But no one
wants to admit that the land is theirs. Sad, just sad.
Saving up eggs for Sterling and Jacqui now. They will have a
few to take home and some to leave wherever they are going when they get to
Texas next week. They may end up down in Mission, TX for a visit down that
direction. But Terry and Stacy are on a cruise right now, so that might not
even happen. They have been living at the campground in Mission for folks 50
and over. Hard to believe that my kids are already both over 50!
The sun has shone this week so far and the wind has not been
too bad, so maybe the irises will get to bloom and stay pretty for a while.
Meantime, the bluebonnets are totally wild and happy looking. God made spring
time to give us something to spark our inner gardener! It makes me want to
plant something outside. Have some marigold seeds to plant if the silly hens
will stay out of them! Chicken wire to the rescue!
Rest well, my friends. You are loved.
