Horrah for Fall

Well fall is upon us and I couldn't be any happier. Fall is my Spring and I am hoping I will get the energy I used to get at this time of year. Not much going on in my life except the anticipation of our new granddaughter. My sister and I are giving her a baby shower as she has nothing since her youngest is 11 years old and talk about an excited young girl.I think she will make a great big sister and she is already making plans helping her mom.

I got my first flat tire ever and I was grateful that I was only a mile from my sons house, so he fixed it for me. There was no way I could even get the lugs loosened, much less get the spare from underneath our car. That is the only thing I hate about my PT cruiser.

I am still having problems with my hands and it takes forever to type a post, because they shake a lot. This was caused (the doctors believe) from the stroke I had. My handwriting is horrible and signing my name is shameful, but I have to live with it. I do use a little rubber ball to exercise my hands now, because it was getting worse. The heart attack left me drained and I am just able to sleep better at night.

Well hope you all have a nice Hump Day. God Bless

Oh, honey, I surely understand the "having no energy" part. I felt that way about 10 days ago. I just sat down and wanted to go to bed at 7 pm. Hubs told me to just rest and I made it to 9 pm and then just crashed. I was exhausted. But feeling better now. I think this is just my age catching up with me.....Sigh...

Connie, thanks for stopping by. I sometimes go to bed at 6pm and sleep through the night and other times, I toss and turn, but it's getting better. Love ya, Pat

You just keep your focus on getting stronger. I think that the summer time took it out of all of us.. it did me.... I have accomplished NOTHING.... but with the cooler weather I am feeling like doing something again...... Glad you were close enough for that son to help.. I know I could never loosen up a lug nut now..... Maybe a few years ago but not today.... No strength in my hands.......

Happy fall girl and you just get stronger.... and congrats on the new grand baby coming...
