All Is Good.

The hot days of summer are among us,
Everything is lush and green.
My nephews are staying with me so I have not been around much.
What I have noticed about an 18 year old and a 13 year old in the house,
they are always hungry, hungry, hungry and that is before, during, and after
they eat. I have been doing okay though and trying to stick to plan.
Everyone is noticing how much better I am after my surgery.
They are surprised by the amount of energy I have.
The other day was the first outing I have had in eight years
where I was able to go to more than one store, and be
able to do more than one thing. I am thrilled to pieces.
3 stores and lunch the other day and a movie later in the evening.
Now I was exhausted the next day and have slowed it down since.
It really really feels wonderful to be feeling fine.
Until next time be well my friends.
Take  care,
Cinner

  3. I too am happy for you; energy is such a gift and a blessing. Cinner, I had CFIDS (chronic fatigue syndrome) for 11 years and sort of "missed" my 30's. When I got my energy back it was something I will never again take for granted! Wishes that you continue to heal and grow in energy, xoO

  6. Olivia, oh wow eleven years and then did your energy return. I know how hard it is for others to understand how there is a difference from being tired and having no energy. I refer to a few of my years since 39 as the lost years. Sending hugs your way and a great big thank you for being such a wonderful woman in my life. hugs.

  7. Diana once you recover they won't be able to hold you back. My friend has had knee surgeries on both knees and had made a difference for about twenty years.I know you are anxious to get this over and done with. all will work out famously for you I am sure. You have been on my mind a lot lately. I am wishing for you health, healing and happiness. hugs

  21. I’ve been a blogging slacker lately. Jeffrey and Sloane were gone for two weeks and I found myself completely absorbed by house projects; an unintentional blog break. Now we're on a long, long road trip. We’re in Arizona now and I have a bit of time on the computer – finally! I was having withdrawls from being away from my blogger buddies so long, I tell you. I hope your summer continues to be as wonderful as it sounds here. Love to you and your sweet nephews.

  22. LOL
    yes kids love to eat
    i get teenagers everyday, i live way to close to school and i end up having them over every day going to my pantry and emptying it!!!
    hugs and blessings to you

  23. Oh Cinner, how marvelous that you had such an exciting day out. I would have been exhausted after that much activity as well but wasn't it great? So glad to hear you are improving daily and I hope you enjoy your time with those hungry nephews. ;-) Hugs to you, Mina

  24. Mina it was great to be able to do things, more than one. I was so thrilled I was tired the next day. the boys are keeping me busy. Tonight was funny, the younger one gets so giddy when he gets tired so we laughed and laughed. hugs to you dear friend.

  25. Carmen, that must be fun for you too. I swear if these boys stay too long, I might have to get a job. lol. take care, hope summer is going great for you. I am trying to get by to visit everyone this week. hugs.

  26. Relyn, absorbed in house projects, that sounds familiar. It would have been nice for Jeffrey and Sloan to get a break...Every time I read Sloans name I wonder how you chose it. I love it btw. I so hope you are having a good time and enjoying the time away. It is funny how we miss blogging when we are not. I was thrilled you took the time out of your day to stop by and have a visit.
    I am glad to call you friend. hugs.

  33. Gail, it was lovely, the next day I was a tired girl, but that day was full of energy. so as you know if we get it we take it. That is what I am hoping that your days are filled with some energy and that you are pain free. Every night I pray for a cure and that my friend is well. love you, big Canadian hug. of course a heyyyy.

  34. Sarah, I laaughed when you mentioned Fox. you know exactly what I am talking about. I am so enjoying my visit. In total they will be here for sixteen days, They have been helping out and making sure I don't do too much until I am completely recovered.
    Enjoy the rest of your summer hon, have you put on more miles walking.
    hope life is treating you good. hugs.

  35. Sarah what a nice thing to say, I think I am my own worst critique. I think we all do that to some extent.
    It is a relief knowing I am getting more energy. It is a gift from God for sure. I think he has been holding my hand, and there have been many angels down here that have been holding my hand too. Thank you, you have been one of them. Your a darling. hugs.

  36. SueAnn hope you are enjoying your week with your grand daughter, you guys always have the best shopping excursions and outing. The boys are not shoppers.m but they sure are eaters. They went to a ball game tonight and yes came home hungry. lol. poor parents with a bunch of kids. I don't know how they must do it.
