I'M OFF TO SEE THE ......OH WAIT! MAYBE I AM JUST "OFF".....

 I can't believe 

OCTOBER
is winding down 
already!

Can you?
I stole this graphic from a friend...
shhhhhhh...

Anyway,
I am doing a bit of 
CATCH UP
today after not much
sleep for the last few days.

Laundry is going, 
sipping coffee,
enjoying the sunshine
AND
took someone special for a ride
with the top down!

Lucky me!
I get to go see my granddaughter
in a week or so.
She is in college in Connecticut.
Her mom and Auntie Mindy are
going along, too.
Can't wait to see my pretty girl.
East Coast here I come!
I LOVE wandering around
the country!

And for your smile today...
Does this prove that 
"all those that wander are not lost"?
hmmmm...

Looks like MyHero tossed the 
PICNIC TABLE
out of the way trying to find his way home.

ps..  I did NOT drive off and leave him there.

Oh yeah-and I AM OFF-
off to get my Covid booster and
flu shot at 7:00 am!
Lucky me!

Good for you getting your flu and covid shots. That's something I have to do soon. And I agree that October is just flying by. In fact, this whole year is. I look back at my posts and think "that was just a few weeks ago" and it has been months. Have a safe trip and think of me here on the East Coast while you are out this way.

I can't believe it's almost November. I'll be putting out my Christmas decorations before you know it. I've had my flu shot. I still need to get the new COVID booster. Is your someone special a Bouvier?

Love,
Janie

Your granddaughter is beautiful! I hope you post photos of the visit. We got our Covid booster and flu shot as well. Our state is one that has a high rate of flu right now. WHY have you been losing sleep??

Brenda Pruitt said...

I haven't got my last booster yet. I don't go anywhere and only see Steve next door or my girls. Guess I'll need to get that soon though. Love that silly dog of yours! That nose is adorable!

Good Morning Diana! So glad you get to see your girl soon. I am also going to see my girls soon enough. It will possibly be snowing when I do, so I hope I can get out haha. Your doggy is cute, and must have loved that ride with the top down. Can't believe October is coming to an end. Take care, and I hope you do well with the booster. Love that photo of your husband just wandering. ; )

Good for you getting your Covid booster and flu shots! Hope you have little to no side effects! I had my flu and pneumonia shots together a couple of weeks ago and plan to get my booster, next week.

Kay G. said...

Hey Diana! Your granddaughter is all grown up now. That went fast!
I know they say it is fine to get the flu shot and Covid booster at the same time but heck, I'm going to wait a few weeks before the two. I am such a little old worrying lady now! Take care, hope you are enjoying a beautiful October! xx

Chatty Crone said...

You are going to have so much fun on your road trip. She is grown up and beautiful.
I got my flu shot yesterday - a little sore today.

Terri D said...

Your beautiful granddaughter will be so happy to have family visiting!! Keep us posted!! I got my flu shot and 3rd booster a few weeks ago. They didn't even make my arms sore so I was lucky. Hope you are too!! It is so great having you back!! I've missed you! xo

Kim said...

Enjoy the visit with your granddaughter, it sounds like a fun trip. Sorry you won't be in my neck of the east coast. Would love to see you in person, I know that we would laugh for hours. xo

Pamela M. Steiner said...

Love the photos...Scruffy is sure the charmer!!! And your granddaughter is lovely, like her grandmother! Have a wonderful trip! And your picture of your hubby is special. I like that. Take care and enjoy your trip, and before you know it we will need you to give us some Thanksgiving tables to select! So don't forget! LOL. Have a wonderful time. God bless and stay safe!!

Linda said...

I'm glad you didn't drive off and leave him there!!! Hahahaha!
Your ride sounds fun and safe journey as y'all go on your trip!

Ann said...

Sounds like a fun trip you have planned. Glad to hear you didn't drive off and leave your hero stranded.

Polly said...

Enjoy the time with your granddaghter. I still have the dregs of a vicious cold so I am waiting a bit longer before getting my flu and covid booster jabs.

Amy at Ms. Toody Goo Shoes said...

Have a great time visiting your granddaughter in CT! My son went to college in CT. It's beautiful this time of year. Glad to hear you'll be all boosted up!

Jeanie said...

Lucky you! Sounds like fun. I got my Covid yesterday and last night chills and 102 temp. And virtually NO sleep. I suspect it will ease today.

Doris said...

October is indeed flying right off the 2022 calendar! Yikes, this year is soon history but it feels like it's only begun.
Your trip sounds like a good one. Anytime spent with family is super special. Enjoy!!
Hope your arm isn't too sore. Got my covid booster 2 weeks ago and will get the flu shot at my med check in a few weeks. I was only a little more achy than usual from the booster plus injection site pain which wasn't too bad.

True life changing story of COPD.
My father was a smoker for forty years. He started when he was a teenager in high school in the early 1950s, and continued to smoke about a pack a day until he quit in 1995. For years he thought "You know? 1 smoked for forty years, and I got away with it !" No. No he didn't. In 2014, nineteen years after he had quit smoking, he started noticing that he was having trouble with wheezing and feeling like he was out of breath a lot. He was diagnosed with early stage COPD. For the first year, he was able to get by with simply using rescue inhalers once in a while, but by late 2015 he needed supplemental oxygen. At first, he could get by on the lowest tank setting of 1 liter per minute, but as time went on he needed an Oxygen concentrator at home and he needed more and more oxygen. Last year (2020) he was up to the oxygen concentrator's highest setting of 5 liters per minute, even while just sitting down. By this time I had moved in with him to take care of him. Sometimes he would be gasping for air, and he would ask me "Son, is the machine on? I just can't get enough air" his condition worsened, our hearts melted every moment as we watched him gasp for breath,we were sure he would die any moment, by the time I started reading YouTube comments,I stumbled upon a comment that said there is an traditional herbal doctor called Dr Itua Herbal Center man that cures this ailment and other human diseases,I quickly contacted him and ordered the herbs with my father's money because he wouldn't need it anymore cos he would die any moment,I received the herbs in two days and from that moment he used the herbs, he began to feel better and better, few weeks later, he was completely cured, I thank you for reading this story about my father's experience with COPD. If you know someone who is a smoker, and you love them, please encourage them to quit. We love Daddy.all thanks to Dr Itua.
if you have this ailment or have other ailments like..Alzheimer's,Cancer,Parkinson,Hiv,Herpes,Hpv,Kidney disease,Diabetes,Hepatitis,, email Dr Itua Herbal Center on
drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com also chatted with him on whatsapp number: +2348149277967. and he will send you herbs to cure you completely.
