Yard Sale...Storms...Back Pain

Well, I'm way over due with updating the blog. We have been very busy and time to sit and type seems to be very little.

We have had so much rain and storms! I know you in GA would love to have some of the rain and we would gladly share if we could. We've had major storms with extremely high winds. There have been tornado's as well. We lost a tree in our front yard in the wee hours of the morning last Friday. We have two story bay windows and it was right in front of the windows. Thankfully, it fell toward the road and NOT onto the house. Thank you Lord! It has been over a week of one severe storm after another and we are so blessed that us and our home has remained safe. Our pond is FULL and is draining into the driveway and into the front yard so needless to say, it's pretty wet around here.

We had a yard sale this past Sat. and Sun. We don't like to have it on Sunday but due to weather and Larry's travel, we had it when we could. We did well. Sold a lot of stuff and are donating the remainder. I was not about to bring it all back in the house when we are trying to clean up. Aunt Carol came over and spent the day with us on Sat. It was nice having time with her. Larry and his brother Terry cut up the tree while I did the yard sale and they hauled the wood to his dad's for this coming winter. We were all so very tired! Yard sales are a lot of hard work. We had so much stuff stored in the basement for the sale and Larry brought the majority of it up by himself. What a good guy! He didn't complain one bit...just did whatever I said. Hmmm, if only that worked all the time! Ha!

I have trouble with my back and shoulder and of course my back has started acting up. Not sure if it was from lifting and moving stuff for the sale, picking up brush or what but it sure is agitated. I went to see my friend Tiffany for massage therapy on Monday. Massage, that word sounds relaxing, however, when you are being worked on because of back pain....not so relaxing. Today, Tuesday, I do feel some better but no where near 100% yet.

Well, I've got to try to get some stuff done. I just wanted to update and say that we are doing well and have survived the horrible weather. More later and hopefully more interesting than this one. Ha ha! We are busy and I'm in pain...that about sums it up!

Love to all!
