catch-up

 

 

Novah gets cuter and cuter every time i see her!!! 7 mos now!!  starting on solid foods. she gets very excited about her food.    Last week i got to give her a bottle and rock her to sleep.  she is really such a good baby. hardly have ever heard her cry.  

They have gotten all moved into the new place in Prineville. Rylie doing ok with the move, has a week in the new school and has met some girls, taking basketball and has lots of practices. she says this coach likes them to run...  

Got a dog run built and the chicken coop re-done . Jeri is getting the house 'organized' she says. 

I got a bunch of 'stuff' on Amazon  to make xmas ornaments with Rylie, wooden disks, cut out wooden snowflakes, and acrylic paints... lots of examples on Pinterest. Went to the local craft stores, Michels, Hobby Lobby and they just did not have anything  or at least what i had in mind..  

Have taken a couple more painting classes and have signed up for 3 more. What will i do with all of these? oh, well. i got 2 small canvases and am going to try some original art. think i have taken enough classes, i can maybe? figure out things to do...

 Still have leaves in the back yard... I have been really ill with back to back UIT.. have to be doing something wrong.  it makes me feel so out of sorts and just plain sick and the pain in my kidneys is incredible. then to docs or PA act like i am trying to get drugs for pain.  I ONLY use then when in pain. had some left over from 2023, are they even any good any more, and from the surgery in June this year.  now i have none and just know that i will get it again, then what.. just go in and cry, i guess 

AND have an issue with  the citrocal, it is calcium for heaven sake!!! i take 3 a day, and they will only give me 90 so a months worth, NOT 3 mos worth, which, which every month is the same thing, i run out, they have to contact the doc and get a refill order, it's like the insurance, doctor and pharmacy are not in the same universe..  I have osteoporosis. have a prolia shot twice a year and calcium levels have to be just so for them to go ahead with the shot.. and it is the same thing, every month and then just b4 the shot. bone scans are good and have improved since being on this regimen.. but geez, it gets a chore... trying to explain... got an 'emergency' fill monday and they gave me 3 pills...!!!! for one day.  went back today to get more, the prescription had not been called in by doctor, and they gave me 9 more,  slightly better, gives me 3 days... pharmacy said they have called doc 3 times, so i called them this afternoon and they said they would call it in.  like they had never been notified... if someone would just admit, they made an error or 

or listen to what i am saying,  but......

well, i guess if that is the only problem i have, then  that would be ok,, right? or a little problem... i just don't want to get to the point where i break something again, if i should fall.

Poor Brian, another one of his friends passed away on the 24th, another heart attack.. that is 3 of them. and they are only 55!!! what the heck.  they are ones with no insurance and don't go to the doctor for virtually anything..  but still...

the leaves are all off the trees here, there has been snow on the mtns.  Mt B to open the 28th, they are expecting more this weekend. 

Rylie and Jeri took me out for lunch Wednesday for Veterans Day. Went to Brand 44 N in Terrebonne of all places (just a tiny spot in the road north of Redmond about 5 miles) and there was a TON of people there. in the middle of the week!! We waited about 25 min for a sitting and it was just nice outside, clear, hardly a breeze.  I remember when we were all young, the only Veteran, Dad, had to work and we all got the day off from school... Hardly seemed fair.  Food was really good as were the libations!!!

That is about all i have, got all of my crochet projects done for xmas and a baby blanket for a baby due  in March to my dental hygenist!! I like making those little blankets and have to stretch it to find people to give/make  one for, as all the people i know are done having any kids/babies!!! She was so thrilled... i thought i could just drop it off and run, but the front desk ladies were insistant i stay and went in the back to get her... kind of embarrassing..

 Take Care all and God Bless... Happy Thanksgiving to one and all. Be sure to share love and time with families. It's not guaranteed they will be here as long as you want them for.
