• Went to the doctor today for my re check.  He took the dressingoffof my back removed the stiches there were 10 and put butterflys on for now.  I have to take antibiotcs for another 5 days.  He is being reeal cautious since I am diabetic and heal for the rest of the week till I go see him again next week.  I did take the dogs for a walk around the lake they loved it. 

  Now on the lighter side of things something a friend e mailed to me that just had me grinning from ear to ear.  HUGS TO ALL

             My young grandson called the other day to wish me Happy
  > Birthday
  >>>  He asked me how old I was, and I told him, "62."  He was quiet for
  >>> a moment, and then he asked, "Did you start at 1?"
  >>>            -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  >>>            After putting her grandchildren to bed, a grandmother
  >>> changed into old slacks and a droopy blouse and proceeded to wash
  >>> her hair. As she heard the children getting more and more
  >>> rambunctious, her patience grew thin. At last she threw a towel
  >>> around her head and stormed into their room, putting them back to
  >>> bed with stern warnings. As she left the room, she heard the
  >>> three-year-old say with a trembling voice, "Who was THAT?"
  >>>            -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  >>>            A grandmother was telling her little granddaughter what
  >>> her own childhood was like: "We used to skate outside on a pond. I
  >>> had a swing made from a tire; it hung from a tree in our front yard.
  >>> We rode our pony. We picked wild raspberries in the woods." The
  >>> little girl was wide-eyed, taking this in. At last she said, "I sure
  >>> wish I'd gotten to know you sooner!"
  >>>            -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  >>>            My grandson was visiting one day when he asked, "Grandma,
  >>> do you know how you and God are alike?" I mentally polished my halo
  >>> while I asked, "No, how are we alike?" "You're both old," he replied.
  >>>            -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  >>>            A little girl was diligently pounding away on her
  >>> grandfather's word processor. She told him she was writing a story.
  >>> "What's it about?" he asked "I don't know," she replied. "I can't read."
  >>>            -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  >>>            I didn't know if my granddaughter had learned her colors
  >>> yet, so I decided to test her. I would point out something and ask
  >>> what color it was. She would tell me, and always she was correct.
  >>> But it was fun for me, so I continued. At last she headed for the
  >>> door, saying sagely, "Grandma, I think you should try to figure out some of these yourself!"
  >>>            -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  >>>            A Sunday school class was studying the Ten Commandments.
  >>> They were ready to discuss the last one. The teacher asked if anyone
  >>> could tell her what it was. Susie raised her hand, stood tall, and
  >>> quoted, "Thou shall not take the covers off thy neighbor's wife."
  >>>            -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  >>>            Our five-year-old grandson couldn't wait to tell his
  >>> grandfather about the movie we had watched on television, "20,000
  >>> Leagues Under the Sea." The scenes with the submarine and the giant
  >>> octopus had kept him wide-eyed. In the middle of the telling, my
  >>> husband interrupted Mark, "What caused the submarine to sink?" With
  >>> a look of incredulity Mark replied, "Grandpa, it was the 20,000 leaks!!"
  >>>            -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  >>>            When my grandson Billy and I entered our vacation cabin,
  >>> we kept the lights off until we were inside to keep from attracting
  >>> pesky insects. Still, a few fireflies followed us in. Noticing them
  >>> before I did, Billy whispered, "It's no use, Grandpa. The mosquitoes
  >>> are coming after us with flashlights."
  >>>            -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  >>>            When my grandson asked me how old I was, I teasingly
  >>> replied, "I'm not sure."
  >>>           "Look in your underwear, Grandma," he advised. "Mine says
  >>> I'm four to six."
  >>>            -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  >>>            A second grader came home from school and said to her
  >>> grandmother, "Grandma, guess what? We learned how to make babies today."
  >>>           The grandmother, more than a little surprised, tried to
  >>> keep her cool. "That's interesting," she said, "How do you make babies?"
  >>>           "It's simple," replied the girl. "You just change 'y' to 'i'
  >>> and add 'es'"
  >>>            -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  >>>            Children's Logic: "Give me a sentence about a public
  >>> servant," said a teacher. The small boy wrote: "The fireman came
  >>> down the ladder pregnant." The teacher took the lad aside to correct him.
  >>> "Don't you know what pregnant means?" she asked. "Sure," said the
  >>> young boy confidently. "It means carrying a child."
  >>>            -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  >>>           A nursery school teacher was delivering a station wagon
  >>> full of kids home one day when a fire truck zoomed past. Sitting in
  >>> the front seat of the fire truck was a Dalmatian dog. The children
  >>> started discussing the dog's duties. They use him to keep crowds
  >>> back," said one youngster. "No, said another, "he's just for good
  >>> luck." A third child brought the argument to a close. "They use the
  >>> dogs," she said firmly, "to find the fire hydrant."
