There is a website devoted to caring for abused animals and if you go there and click the purple sign that says "click every day" it helps the organization get free food for abused and neglected animals. They have been having trouble getting enough people to visit their site so if you could pass it on it would really help!

Bursitis....anyone have any experience with this little gem? I've had problems intermittently for several years and it has come back with a vengeance this time. I think my excessive bike riding has set it off. How annoying! I have to stop riding my bike for awhile to try and get the inflammation to subside. Anyone have any home remedies to share? I'm open for suggestions.

I'm so enjoying our good weather. We've been in the 70's for the past several days and it is supposed to last through the weekend. Great time to get those holiday lights on the house and ready for Christmas. I don't have any to put out but if I did I'd get them out now.

It's hard to believe Thanksgiving is just a few weeks away and then it will be Christmas. I love this time of year and the time shared with family and friends. We are only going to have 4 for Thanksgiving this year and we are considering going out for dinner. It would be a first as I always cook the holiday meals but I'm really enjoying the possibility of just being a guest this year and someone else doing the cooking. As we get older it is sometimes necessary to change traditions. This will be the first holiday without my parents and maybe a little change would be good. This is the time of year when I really wish I had grandchildren. Children really make the holidays special.


Here is a link to a great song by Toby Keith. He wrote it in tribute to Wayman Tisdale one of Oklahoma's legendary basketball players and a friend of Toby's. I loved the song!
