Secrets from Louisiana

So glad you have stopped by for a visit. We have many secrets here in Louisiana. We are a quilters haven because of all the interesting things we have in our environment to see, smell,taste and feel. Our flowers are like perfume in the evening and the colors explode in your eyes. Our seafood is the best in the world and is bountiful from the Gulf.

The palette is non stopping.

I have been busy for the last 4 weeks having everything I own checked. I am happy to say I only have a heart echogram and an ultrasound left to do. I have been checked outward and inward by choice. This is my 70th birthday gift to myself. The colon screen yesterday was easy and so was the prep over the weekend, I will add it was all clear. No more diabetic meds for this girl, AIC is 5,9, good chol was 62 and bad chol was 77, EKG's (3) normal, pap good, bone scan fine, we are doing the extra heart testing because a history on me and my family has illregular heart beats sometimes .Am having scar tissue removed from left eye next tuesday and then will be done for a year,

Another Great Week

Well what a great week we had in Bullard Texas with our dear friends in the LonestarBird RV Club! We laughted, ate and remembered good times and planned for new great trips. We talked about the Indy 500 for next year in May.

I have Naomi and Nicolas this week, we are having a great time and doing lots of activities. Steve and I are trying to rest up from the trip, just not happening with grands about. It is worth the effort to have them close.

Bought nyself a new cutting matt finally, it was 40% off at Hancocks, love saving money.

Health wise doing great, feel wonderful.

Have a great week!
