Oh joy!

 I guess it's sometimes the small things that give us joy...

Yesterday I discovered that the Humane Society will accept your old empty amber plastic pill bottles to use for animal medicines sent home.  So I was able to donate to them instead of to a landfill...

However, what brings GREAT joy is our grandsons!

 

Lionel (Maryn and Lew's) and Beto (Perry and Sarah's)

Beto is short for Robert Perry Hooker VI (yes, the sixth!)

TGA


The acronym stands for Transient Global Amnesia which is what brought me to the emergency room yesterday.  We were innocently doing our morning puzzles when Bob says I was exhibiting strange behavior.  Like I couldn't remember anything... ANYTHING.  So off we went to our friendly nearby Hendricks Regional Health Brownsburg Hospital.  After several tests and scans, it was determined that I was back to what might be considered normal for me, and we could go home.  What next?!?  See the comment for what was next...

Oversharing...

 Oh my!  Bob says I'm oversharing in this blog... sigh.  So until I figure out a better solution, I'll be unpublishing much of the blog so it won't be public.  Let me know if you want to see the "private" stuff!  It's definitely more fun to read.

Oh happy day, Lewis!

My youngest is having a birthday today.  

Last night I was going to add a little music to this post to accompany the occasion, but the whole "create a google site for the mp3", then "embed the html code"... then... then... was just too complicated after I had my evening (first) glass of wine.  So I figured out how to send it via a text using the Family News group :)

Love you, Lew!

Eating

 I love to eat, especially eat out.  

Bob went to the grocery (while I was eating out with girl friends!), and he came home with over $300 of food.

I don't think we will eat out for a loooong time.  Sigh

The Wedding!

 Just got back, and the wedding was lovely.  Met lots of family I haven't seen for far too long and made new friends, too.  Just to be quick, here are two photos:
