My full and kooky life as a homeschooling mommy to 2 great kids, raising a child with HLHS (Hypolastic Left Heart Syndrome), coping with depression, following Jesus, and being much too camera happy.

      It was a good nature walk to see the changing water level at the creek!

    Nice to get out of the house and some sunshine and a nice nature walk.

      Need some fresh air and exercise. It’s not a long walk on this path, so it gives us just the right amount of walking for the whole family. Last time at this place, I stepped on dog poop and didn’t realize it. Elliot put a grocery bag over each of my shoes for the ride home. lol.

        I remember you saying that about the dog poop. I had to get an extra pair of shoes put into the trunk for mud issues to not bring it home. Mud is bad enough, poop is 10X worse!

        That’s a smart idea! Dog poop is much worse than mud and a stinker if you don’t clean it up quickly.

        Yes, I took an old pair of my walking shoes. We had a solid day of rain and will have some rain tomorrow, then rain Sunday through Tuesday – the larger parks with rustic trails will be muddy for weeks. We have goose poop on the perimeter path too, especially once the goslings arrive.

        Goose poop is inevitable. Watch out for those spots…
        I thought our rainy season was over, but we’re supposed to have cooler weather and rain this coming week. Very unusual weather for us and you too. Stay on the trails!

        Yes – a rainy day most of the day here today, then next two days. It’s been a lousy April weather-wise.

        Same here. And you won’t believe that we’re getting rain again!! It’s raining right now and some more this week.
        I feel your weather pain too!

        We have the same dreary weather – it rained all of today and tomorrow through mid-day. Finally, no rain Thursday – Sunday, though Thursday will be gray.

        What a year of tempestuous weather! Stay safe and hope your allergies are not flaring up so much.
        We have been using Flonase and eye drops. Ellis’ eyes are puffed up and the eye drops aren’t helping. Probably will have to make a doctor visit. She keeps rubbing it and it gets redder and puffier. Guess what? For my allergies, the doctor gave me steroid ear drops. It helps with the coughing and soar throat but it came with a nice price tag of $90. geesh.

        Steroid ear drops – interesting. How does that help your allergies and what a price tag!!

      10. singlikewildflowers Avatar

        I thought it weird too. But it helps with the nighttime coughing, congestion, and ear itch. I was shocked when I got the price tag…and this is the generic kind.
        It’s not easy putting in 3 drops into each ear, and the first night I put in way more by accident. Chris does it for me, but Elliot loves to do it. SO that’s his job now until Saturday.

        Generic medicine that much – poor you! No, I guess you would need another person. I always did my mom glaucoma drops in her eyes twice a day. She used them faithfully to thwart getting glaucoma as she was bordering.
