The Turning a Blind Eye Weekly Link Round-Up

 


I'm usually good about taking care of business in a timely fashion. But I do fall off the wagon from time to time. This past weekend was one of those times, and I purposely turned a blind eye to any and all "Needs To Be Done" here at Casa Kittling and kept my nose firmly ensconced in my book. Bliss! I need to do that more often.

Poor Denis! If having two loose screws in his back wasn't enough, now he needs to be checked out for bursitis in his hip. As for me, I haven't had my consultation with the vascular surgeon yet, but I have had the results of the ultrasound on my leg. "No vascular insufficiencies" were found. I do wish I could consult this woman via telephone because she has all the personality of an iceberg. Oh well. If the worst that happens to me that day is a little frostbite, I'll still be having a good day.

It may be impressed upon Denis and me almost daily that growing old isn't for wimps, but there's not a day that goes by without us laughing and joking several times. Life is too precious to spend it moaning and groaning, right?

On that note, I'll leave you with another t-shirt from my virtual closet and with hugs and wishes that, no matter what happens, you find something to smile and laugh about. Stay cool, stay healthy, and enjoy the links!

  1. I'm so glad you and Denis have each other and that you both can laugh and joke and look at life with a positive point of view. I think that gets a person through a lot. Enjoy the weekend and I'll be in touch when I get back from Peru.

  2. Cathy, you are so right about finding something to laugh about each day. Even though getting older is difficult, there are many blessings in each of our lives. I got caught up in looking at your lists links today. Somehow the approach of fall makes me hungry for lists! Hoping you find some time to escape in a good book this weekend!
