I've recovered from EVERYTHING!
Hopefully!
The Colonel is doing really well!
He goes back to Ft. Dix on Thursday of this week. Of course he needs to be seen by the doctors down there for them to say it's okay for him to return to work.
The nurse is coming today probably for the last time to see his wound, which looks really good!
Well, it's still a hole.
I guess I'm just use to it by now!
We had a great week relaxing and getting a few small projects done around the house.
The Colonel had all these plans to do these HUGE projects.
First he actually considered putting in a new walkway to the front porch.
Imagine that!
Then he said, "How would you like a potting shed?"
I'm glad both the doctor AND the home care nurse said,
"You can't do that!"
So we were all able to convince him to take it easy and just try to rest.
We took a trip on Friday to a nearby town called Jim Thorpe; named after the Olympian from the 1920's. It's a beautiful town and we only live about 20 minutes from it.
My brother and his family came with us and we had a great time!
Beautiful Jim Thorpe...
I have no words for this...
A cute little cafe in between two buildings...
An old tunnel in someone's back yard...
Beautiful building...
The Colonel waiting for me to finish shopping...
We had such a great time.
I'm off to spend some time with all of my friends.
I have missed checking in with you all!
Love my blogging friends!

You were so nice to say nothing at all about that toilet! Oh my stars~I am not sure why anyone would think that was a good idea!
Have a wonderful day.
