I am thankful for my two daughters. So glad one child lives next door. I have two sisters to encourage me daily and some good friends, especially my old friend Jonell. Also, I have my cousin, Virginia, who has lived through what I am feeling. It all helps so much. I have support and I will get back to being the "old" me. I like to sit around and read. I feel guilty about just sitting around. I am 70, and not as energetic as I once was. On top of all this is the dreaded death that looms near always. It is like an oppressive blanket smothering us all. Will be go glad when it subsides. Where I live the cases continue to climb up, up, up!

My Mama made us sassafras tea when we were little too. We always loved it. Glad you are feeling some better. ~Amy-Patsy
And of course, I have Amy Patsy.
My friend, Gay, lost her husband last winter and she asked a neighbor to come and show she how to work her mower so she could mow her pasture up to the house herself. She is 82. She has horses and takes care of them herself. She still goes on trail rides too.
Until this year, I mowed my own yard with a power push mower. I will be 85 in December. All this sitting around has taken my stamina. I hate that. I always enjoyed doing the mowing and thought that helped to keep me active. I now pay a young girl to do it for me weekly.
I hope next year to buy a new mower. Larry's was old. I can't operate it. I am not a great a girl as Gay I guess.
