Tis getting close to the Halloween time so I thought this picture appropriate.

My goodness, I did not realize how long it has been since I last posted. I have been extremely busy plus the pain I suffer from keeps me from setting down to the computer.

We received our first snowfall last weekend, oh joy, oh joy. Actually Cheryl and I welcome the cooler weather since we seem to do better in it, or we used to. Poor Cheryl has been suffering from shoulder pain for at least a month. She finally broke down and seen the specialist yesterday and probably has surgery looming in the near future. Her Parkinson causes her to fall and she has taken a couple of nasty ones this year. Apparently they had more of an affect on her than we originally thought.

I am having a very difficult time walking due to pain. I see the surgeon in November and probably have surgery looming in my future. Ahhhhh, life with it's little setbacks. I keep telling my boss that I am fine because I truly love my job.

Okay, enough whining. Well, since the elections are coming up very shortly I must post this picture. This year in politics reminds me of the time the Gadianton robbers ruled the America's and caused so much turmoil in government to the point that it crumbled. Sure hope this will not be the case.



Thank you Sarah for the pictures. I know I have not blogged for a while butttttttt, what can I say... I am lazy.

Foam, if you are still checking my blog, sorry about your eye condition. Do you know what has caused it or did you mention it and I forgot?

Did I mention that my daughter Kimberly and her family moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma? Yep, they cain't seem to speak without a drawl now. We miss our grandkids but are happy they have work and are doing okay.

Guess this will be all for today. Got to study for a test, pull vegetable vines from the garden, sleep, eat and dream of old whiskey, fast women and faster horses. Now if I knew what to do with old whiskey, fast women, and faster horses I guess I would be in great shape. Maybe I will dream of Pepsi, older women, and wheel chairs.

Have a nice day everyone.

You are so funny!

So sorry to hear that you and the Missus are feeling poorly and in pain. My word, I am scared. I am a tad younger than you and already feel I am falling apart. You must have been in great shape at my age then, eh??

Hope your surgeries go well!

Hey Tim. Sorry to hear you and Cheryl are having 'pain issues'. I can relate all too well. I hope you both are feeling better soon.

In many ways, the US & Canadian politics are very different, while is some ways they are the same. Your cute wee outhouse shows one way they are the same.

Have a wonderful day.
