A New Look

 Another appointment today. For HeWho. He has another appointment on Tuesday. I had forgotten which was which .... me not being at the top of my game. You might recall that about 6 weeks ago vertigo paid a visit, then before that was resolved (still having episodes), I threw my back out and ate the tooth I broke. As we approached the medical buildings, I asked which one we were expected to be at.

The car slowed, as HeWho looked off into the distance. Given my luck lately, I figured he was either deep in thought or having a stroke. No stroke, but no matter how deep he dived into his mind, he failed to be able to tell me where we were supposed to be. We were closest to the cardiologist, so we stopped there first. To the great amusement of the staff, we were at the wrong office. Why is this funny? Because he has missed the last THREE appointments. She was giggling as she asked if she should print out another reminder. I told her I was in control now and promised to have him show up on Tuesday.

At the vascular surgeons office he had a study of his leg vessels done. The results were really good. Blood is flowing well in both legs. He still has calf pain in his right leg, but that is to be expected. An area of his left leg is still numb and may always be, as nerves were cut in that area. No big deal, it does not affect his walking or the strength in his leg.


He is sporting a new look, thanks to our brother-in-law, Ronald. His beard needs some attention, but I like the hat, he looks rather dashing, don't you think?

      Thank you! I do have excellent taste, after all. I guess I will keep him.

    I like HeWho's beard. Hick has grown his chin part into a point, and is always pulling on it. He's no ZZ Top member.

      This one is getting too thick and bushy, time for him to visit my hairdresser!

    I had never seen a picture of HeWho. He is a handsome man, and wears the beard well.

    I like the hat. I like the beard, too, but it needs a serious trim. I hope you know a good stylist.

      My stylist will trim it up nicely. She did for my son's wedding and it looked really nice. I am the one who usually trims it along with his hair, but I don't feel like it now!

      He does, doesn't he? The beard does seem like his trademark now.

    my husband grew beard for the first 20 years or so of our marriage. he let it get long and bushy though which I didn't really care for and then one day out of the blue he shaved it all off and has been clean shaven since. I like a short beard on a man and by short I mean about a half ince.

  Let's see if I did this right! Hopefully I will be able to add some pictures. Only one way to find out .... This is where it all started. On a rainy day in October, 2021. The first view of the rest of our lives. Here he is, the love of my life pondering this property he had proclaimed to be over our budget.  Here is the front view. The drizzling rain makes the house look like it needs a good power wash. Not to worry, we have one. While I am not a big fan of the screen door entry, this can be changed. This is the view that convinced HeWho proclaimed this property to be over the budget I had set to make an offer that very day. You can't see it from this picture, but a trout stream with rushing water hides down below. I will eventually get a good shot when I finally start to make some steps down to the water. We are old and do not want to fall and suffer any broken bones! The area behind the stream is never to be developed. This existing tiny shed will become my sewing room. I ...

  While awaiting the newest stove delivery I have been working in my She Shed, but the last several days have been overcast, damp and chilly. This has kept me inside. I tired quickly of Netflix and TV in general. Idle hands make me anxious, so I employed the help of HeWho sits and got down all the boxes of photos to sort. I have been saying I would get to them one day when I had nothing to do ..... Strolling down memory lane with each stack. I kept stopping to text pictures to my kids and laughing with them. Then I hit a stack that made me profoundly sad and happy all at the same time. It was pictures with my sister on a cruise with her friend that became mine, too. We had so much fun despite me being homesick. Here we are departing. The winds were high! This is my sister. My big sister, always ready to take care of me. My only sibling. This is Gloria, partner in crime to my sister's antics when I wasn't around. Three three of us indulged in a rum drink called "the Love Co...

Final Chapter!

  So, you may recall that the delivery did not happen on Tuesday, but was supposedly changed to Thursday. I was skeptical. I was right to be skeptical. HeWho patiently waits on hold, was told that the stove had yet to arrive from Atlanta. They were unaware that he had been notified by text that the stove had arrived in Murphy the day before ad was ready for pick up. When he confronted the store manager with this bit of information, the excuses began once again. The delivery truck was already out for the day and nothing could be added. The stove did not arrive before 6am and therefore could not be added to the day's deliveries. Judge Judy is apt to tell a witness that if you tell the truth, you don't have a need to remember what you said earlier. Finally, HeWho has had enough! He told the liar on the other end of the phone to cancel the order and refund our credit card. I was listening and can tell you I have never heard such relief in a man's voice as the liar's had. He...
